Nearfield mixing characteristics of the Niagara River plume / Ann K. Masse, C.R. Murthy and K.C. Miners.: En13-5/95-182E-PDF
"The mixing of the Niagara River with Lake Ontario is examined using temperature and velocity data collected by the Niagara River plume experiments between 1982 and 1985. The report first reviews previously reported findings on the Niagara River plume. The remainder of the report is devoted to the analysis of data. Lake surface temperature maps derived from satellite images showed that the most common trajectory of the Niagara River plume is to the right, when viewed facing offshore. The right-turning plume was observed 35% of the time while the plume water was the same temperature as the surrounding water 33% of the time"--Management perspective.
