So I guess the answer is around 6.6 ppt

Generally, how long will it stay closed and where do you find the salinity on the refuge side

at this rate gates might be closed a while, as salinity is still climbing.
Interesting bc the last few springs / early summers, the water behind the weirs has been high / fresh..just when we thought we’d get a “normal” year in 2018...can’t win lol Last edited by TidewateR; 05-30-2018 at 07:35 PM. |

The USFWS operates based on what are called "isohaline lines". If the salinity exceeds the target level, the weirs are closed. I used to have a figure that showed those lines, but I would have to do some digging to find it. The main lines they go on are a 5 ppt line and a 12 ppt line.
