A one-dimensional model of the high water slack distribution of salinity has been used to simulate salinity movement in the Abery River, Guyana. The collection of data and its processing for use in the model is described. The model proving and verification procedures are outlined. A method is developed which uses the one-dimensional model to assist the operators of a reservoir with planning the release of water down the river to control the salinity in the estuary. This method is incorporated in a computer program which uses historical rainfall, planned crop areas and crop water requirements to simulate the operation of the reservoir, including water releases for irrigation, salinity control and flood control. Results are presented in terms of salinity movement in the estuary during the driest years in a 46year period of rainfall records. The salinity movements with and without control of the river are compared.
