salttilstrømning
Salttilstrømning refers to the movement of saline water into freshwater environments. This phenomenon is most commonly observed in coastal areas where freshwater sources, such as rivers and aquifers, come into contact with saltwater from the ocean. The primary driving force behind salttilstrømning is the difference in density between freshwater and saltwater; saltwater is denser and can therefore displace freshwater.
Several factors contribute to the rate and extent of salttilstrømning. Tidal fluctuations play a significant role,
The consequences of salttilstrømning can be substantial. It can degrade the quality of drinking water sources,
