Coastal regions, and particularly the transition zone between fresh and salt water called estuaries, continue to attract the interest of scientists and governments. In an age of growing awareness of interactive processes affecting the entire planet, those occuring at the frontier between the extensively manipulated continental home of the human race and the once-pristine world ocean merit such continued attention. Estuaries, however, are particularly complicated environments, with cycles of motion that may actually never be repetitive, and each estuary is somewhat different from its neighbours. Since the appearance of "Estuaries" (Lauff, 1967), other, mainly symposium- or workshop-inspired, volumes have been published (e.g. Cronin, 1975; Kennedy, 1980, 1982, 1984; Kjerfve, 1978, 1988; Ketchum, 1983; van de Kreeke, 1986; Wiley, 1976, 1978; Wolfe, 1986). It is difficult, however, to find accounts of the physical, biological, chemical and geological characteristics of individual estuaries all in one place, and large estuaries, such as Chesapeake Bay, Long Island Sound, the Strait of Georgia and the Skagerrak, seem not to have been treated as coherent entities. Nor has the St. Lawrence. 410 0$aCoastal and Estuarine Studies 606 $aBiology$2HILCC 606 $aHealth & Biological Sciences$2HILCC 606 $aBiology - General$2HILCC 615 7$aBiology 615 7$aHealth & Biological Sciences 615 7$aBiology - General 676 $a551.46/144 700 $aEl-Sabh$b Mohammed I$0555890 702 $aSilverberg$b Norman 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911018918403321 996 $aOceanography of a Large-Scale Estuarine System The St. Lawrence$91906268 997 $aUNINA
