Sure its a model, but the model is validated by drifting bouys, as you can check in page 37. i just translated here. "The drift buoy trajectories launched in the summer of 2003 and reported by Piola et al (2003) showed, in consistency with the modeled solutions, relatively low average speeds (20-30 cm / s) in the middle part of the river and higher speeds in the outer sector, mainly towards the Uruguayan coast, where they exceeded 60 cm / s (Fig. 33)." > My main objection is the inclusion of Bahia Samborombon in the estuary.

What generaly available imagery shows in this area is a change of colour, which is dark brown to the NW, and more clear to the SE. This is caused for the change of turbidity, located near the 5m isobath. > – Joseph Eisenberg > On Tue, Aug 4, 2020 at 12:42 PM < mural...@montevideo.com.uy > wrote: >> ----- Mensaje original ----- >> > De: "Kevin Kenny" < kevin.b.ke...@gmail.com > >> > Para: "Tag discussion, strategy and related tools" < >> > tagging@openstreetmap.org > >> > Enviados: Martes, 4 de Agosto 2020 16:28:55 >> > Asunto: Re: [Tagging] Rio de la Plata edit war >> > On Tue, Aug 4, 2020 at 3:18 PM Joseph Eisenberg < >> > joseph.eisenb...@gmail.com > >> > wrote: >> >> These rules would exclude the lower Rio De La Plata and the lower part of >> >> the >> >> mouth of the Saint Lawrence river, as well as other wide estuaries where >> >> winds >> >> and tides have more influence on surface water flow than does the >> >> discharge of >> >> the river.
