Riverine estuaries can have unique carbonate signatures. Salinity can be used as a tracer of water flow in an estuary, but combined with carbonate constituents a better understanding of the system is realized. The salinity and carbonate dynamics of the Wilmington River were determined to elucidate the interaction of the Wilmington and Savannah Rivers. Water samples were collected during the full and 3rd quarter moons at high and low tide during the same day. The pH was determined using spectrophotometry and DIC by CO2 release during sample acidification. The Wilmington River can be classified as a heterotrophic system. Salinity ranged from14 ppt to 32 ppt. The lower Wilmington River was tidally dominated, the upper Wilmington River was slightly river dominated. Dissolved inorganic carbon was exported to the coastal ocean, mainly in the form of respired CO 2. The low tide water contained more CO2 than high tide water. There was evidence of a strong interaction between the Wilmington and Savannah Rivers, where the surface water of the upper Wilmington River may have a longer residence time than the waters of the lower Wilmington River.

520 $a Carbon dioxide is largely produced by bacterial decomposition of organic matter and respiration in salt marsh sediments and released to the atmosphere. Multiple methods have been developed to measure CO2 ranging from PVC chambers with rubber a septum for repeated sampling to flux chambers with pCO2 meters that automatically detect and log the data for higher temporal resolution. This study introduces a flux chamber with an inexpensive (<$100) non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) CO2 sensor. The 97-L flux chamber was placed on subtidal mudflats exposed during low tide and sediments in the high marsh. Light and dark incubations were performed. The CO 2 flux recorded ranged from -126 mg CO2 m-2 hr-1 to 82 mg CO2 m-2 hr-1 from the mudflats. There was no net CO 2 flux recorded in the high marsh. The K-30 NDIR sensor is well suited for field measurements. The integrated benthic chamber performed well in the subtidal mudflats, but design modifications may be necessary to improve studies in the high marsh.
