From: Tidal variability of water quality parameters in a mesotidal estuary (Sado Estuary, Portugal)
Tidal phase in which the highest average value of the various parameters was observed in the different areas of the estuary considering the data collected in stations A, B, C and D. Low Water (LW) is represented in yellow and High Water (HW) in grey. Water Body definition, currently used in the context of the WFD, followed Ferreira et al.33. Note that WB2 and WB3 are represented together (WB2 + 3) and WB5 is only partly represented. The maps were produced using QGIS 3.8.3 Zanzibar, from QGIS Association (https://www.qgis.org/).
