PRISM: Controlled Releases Effect on Salinity Intrusion
What causes the large salinity intrusions along the coast?
What is the minimum flow to control salinity intrusion?
Is there enough water in NC to control salinity intrusions?

Pee Dee Flows Waccamaw Flows
Tidal range 3 ft
Tidal range 4 ft
Freshwater slug With sea-level rise, appears
that it will push more
freshwater to the north.
Water level rises in the
“slug” and forces more
water to the north and
pushes out the salt.
