- •
Transport timescales were investigated for a dual inlet meso-tidal tropical estuary.
- •
First model of the Caravelas and Peruípe estuaries to quantify transport timescales.
- •
Transport timescale observed to be more sensitive to tidal-phase release of drifters.
- •
Return coefficient quantified the propensity of return particles into this system.
