             abstract = "The present work shows the temporal evolution of the Doce River 
                         discharge and turbidity plume at the Esp{\'{\i}}rito Santo 
                         coast, southeast Brazil, using in situ data and Landsat images 
                         from 1985 to 2016. MODIS-Aqua imagery was used to analyze changes 
                         in the dispersion of the plume under influence of synoptic 
                         atmospheric systems. Turbidity maps were obtained using a globally 
                         parameterized model, which had a reasonable comparison with in 
                         situ data obtained at the river mouth. The Doce River watershed 
                         has been suffering from various environmental e.g., precipitation 
                         variability, and anthropogenic stressors e.g., land-use changes, 
                         impacting the quality and volume of the river over the years, with 
                         an overall negative discharge tendency, and a high interannual 
                         variability, with frequent flooding events, causing higher 
                         turbidity. In 2015 the river faced its worst disaster with the 
                         collapse of a mining waste water dam, which increased turbidity, 
                         despite the low discharge caused by a drought season. The denser 
                         turbid plume traveled up to ~13 km towards the southern shelf, and 
                         the diluted plume more than 75 km, as during high flooding events. 
                         Changes on the dominant wind pattern from NE to S, can change the 
                         dominant flow of the plume from S to E-NE, and increase turbidity 
                         over the northern shelf, with contribution of other rivers and 
                         bottom resuspension. The Doce River plume should be monitored with 
                         satellite imagery and in situ campaigns as flooding events are 
                         likely to occur and may still wash out mud accumulated in the main 
                         river.",
