Abstract: The well mixed Mindola River estuary experiences considerable tidal influence with a tidal range of about 3.5 m in the mouth region which reduces to 0.9m at a point 21 km upstream during neap tide. Boron is preferentially removed over the entire tidal cycle; the maximum removal being 9%. On the contrary calcium and magnesium are preferentially added over the same period though to a small extent. An inverse relationship between calcium and magnesium is probably indicative of ion-exchange reaction between calcium in clays of riverine origin and magnesium in water when the river water encounters sea water.
