Paper Summary

Groundwater radium levels near the low tide mark at low tides are the best indicators of submarine groundwater discharge. Previous methods of determining these levels may overestimate the discharge rates. Incorporating groundwater flow information in estimating radium end-members can provide more accurate results.
