The values of the system salinity (Pulicat lagoon) as well as the sea salinity (Bay of Bengal) obtained as 100 realisations of the variables using Monte-Carlo simulations derived using the budget tool developed by Swaney and Hong (2009b). a Gamma distributions of the modelled salinities between the two exchanging systems and the corresponding changes in the freshwater residence times within Pulicat system. b Maximum likelihood estimates and modelled salinities closest to in situ measurements of surface salinities in the lagoon and the sea (outlined points) are shown versus their freshwater residence times
