Temporally-displaced Mississippi River spring flood pulse shows muted aquatic ecosystem response in estuarine waters: A climate change warning for coastal foodwebs

Yadav Sapkota et al.

Summary: In 2016, warm air temperatures and high precipitation led to historically early river flood pulse in the Mississippi River, triggering the opening of a flood release valve to protect New Orleans. This research aimed to examine the ecosystem response of this wintertime nutrient flood pulse compared to historical events that occurred months later.

Impacts of a Major Mississippi River Freshwater Diversion on Suspended Sediment Plume Kinematics in Lake Pontchartrain, a Semi-enclosed Gulf of Mexico Estuary

Robert L. Iles et al.

Summary: MODIS satellite imagery and in situ water measurements were used to quantify inorganic sediment concentration (ISC) and track sediment plume motion during the 2016 Mississippi River diversion in Louisiana. Results showed a correlation between sediment plume distribution and BCS discharge rate, with wind direction playing a role post-diversion closure. The study provides valuable insight for future research on the impact of freshwater diversions on coastal and estuarine processes sensitive to sediment influx.
