The upstream York River discharge is 272 (=186+86) and the salinity at VIMS is 21.936 0/000. 
Discharge 	Time

272


21.936	2009-08-22 18:30	VIMS salinity  21.66 22.05
Using a simple interpolation model with an assumption of 0 PSU at the head of the York and 21.936 at VIMS, we can perhaps estimate the intervening salinities as higher than shown in this graphic. Spatial plot of salinity gradients in the York River
