Figure 4. Distribution of host sediment properties: (A) mean grain size and (B) grain-size sorting. Note that textural maturity and mean grain size decrease toward the margins of the inner estuary and central basin. Mean grain-size classes are labeled accordingly: silt; lower very fine sand (vfL); upper very fine sand (vfU); lower fine sand (fL); upper fine sand (fU); lower medium sand (mL); and upper medium sand (mU). Grain-size sorting classes are labeled accordingly: well sorted (Ws); moderately well sorted (MWs); moderately sorted (Ms); and poorly sorted (Ps).
