Would be great to get a version of this figure including major rivers, as these are often the source of brackish water pockets.

I'm afraid that rivers are too small to register in the resolution of the data (1° by 1°). That said, you can see the consequences of major rivers in the surface salinity (e.g. the mouths of the Amazon River and the Río de la Plata). Anyway, if you'd like the original data to look at yourself, pop on over to the World Ocean Atlas article and follow the links from there. Cheers, --Plumbago 08:24, 28 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
