The Marajó Bay, or Marajoara gulf and Amazon gulf, is an recessed body of water of the Brazilian coast located in the state of Pará. It is roughly 4,500 km2 (1,700 sq mi) in size, and is a receptacle for the waters of the Pará River distributary channel, the waters of the Tocantins basin and the waters of the Guajará Bay, serving as the eastern aquatic border of both the Marajó Island and the Marajó Archipelago. Marajó Bay is an estuary consisting of both salt and fresh water, resulting in the classification of an estuarine system. Marajó Bay also receives sediments from the Amazon River through the Breves Channel as well as the Pará River, causing the water to be turbid.

  • Baía de Marajó är en flodmynning i Brasilien. Den ligger i delstaten Pará, i den nordöstra delen av landet, 1 600 kilometer norr om huvudstaden Brasília. Tropiskt regnskogsklimat råder i trakten. Årsmedeltemperaturen i trakten är 25 °C. Den varmaste månaden är augusti, då medeltemperaturen är 26 °C, och den kallaste är april, med 23 °C. Genomsnittlig årsnederbörd är 3 576 millimeter. Den regnigaste månaden är mars, med i genomsnitt 605 mm nederbörd, och den torraste är oktober, med 62 mm nederbörd. (sv)
  • A baía do Marajó, ou golfão Marajoara e golfão da Amazônia, é uma reentrância da costa litorânea brasileira localizada no estado do Pará. Ela é o receptáculo das águas do canal-paraná rio Pará, da bacia do Tocantins, bem como das águas da baía do Guajará, além de ser a fronteira aquática leste tanto da ilha do Marajó quanto do arquipélago do Marajó. Compreende toda massa d'água entre a Ponta de Piraquembaua, no leste, que fica na ilha de Cajutuba, e; a Ponta do Amoroso (ou Cabo do Maguari), no oeste, que fica na ilha do Marajó.

  • The Marajó Bay, or Marajoara gulf and Amazon gulf, is an recessed body of water of the Brazilian coast located in the state of Pará. It is roughly 4,500 km2 (1,700 sq mi) in size, and is a receptacle for the waters of the Pará River distributary channel, the waters of the Tocantins basin and the waters of the Guajará Bay, serving as the eastern aquatic border of both the Marajó Island and the Marajó Archipelago. Marajó Bay is an estuary consisting of both salt and fresh water, resulting in the classification of an estuarine system. Marajó Bay also receives sediments from the Amazon River through the Breves Channel as well as the Pará River, causing the water to be turbid. The Pará River is a small fraction of the Tocantins River that is one of the providers of water for Marajó. The river is vital to the surrounding areas and makes different areas and ports very accessible for locals. The river also eventually clashes with salt water from the Atlantic Ocean in the Marajó Bay. A circulation process of salinity, temperature, and tidal range in the two different water types occurs in the bay as they meet. Salt water concentrations are also impacted by low water periods of the Amazon River. (en)
