Question

The maximum and minimum tidal flux through Bear Cut Biscayne Bay were found to be:
Max Flux: 1004.012626 Min Flux: -647.539 Overall tidal flux: -47042.74
1.The values found are the maximum flood flux and ebb flux but which is which? How do you know? 2.Is the overall tidal flux net ebb or net flood? Can you justify why? Would this value make sense if bear cut was the only inlet/outlet for water to flow in and out of Biscayne Bay and why or why not. What other factors are at play that could be adding or taking water away from Biscayne Bay.

Explanation / Answer

1. Flood flux is 1004.012626. Ebb Flux is -647.539

We know this because flux is positive in flood and negative in ebb

2.

Over all is net ebb as the flux is negative.

Biscayne bay is outlet as net flux is negative.

Wind direction play an important role
