Abstract
Current and tidal records from the Patuxent estuary are analyzed to investigate the response of the river after a two-day period of strong northwesterly winds. The storm depressed mean water levels throughout the Chesapeake area, and the Patuxent, required about two days to recover to its former mean water level. Surface slopes provided evidence for the existence of a long period seiche.
