Baffin


Baffin Bay is a negative estuary (evaporation exceeds freshwater inflow). Therefore, it is hypersaline with salinity higher than sea water. (There are also some water mixing stuff in play as well.) It gets flushed out with the rare huge rain event (i.e. tropical storms) in its watershed.

Basically an impossible situation in Louisiana with the rainfall totals and less tropical climate.

Why would you pick Texas bay systems anyway?

I just see us left with beach fronts and large back bays much like what we are seeing in terrebonne and barataria basins, regardless of rainfall and salinity levels. Speaking of water, what happens when the LA legislature decides to sell water off Toledo bend?
