Rapid neodymium release to marine waters from lithogenic sediments in the Amazon estuary
Rare earth element (REE) concentrations and neodymium isotopic composition (ɛNd) are tracers for ocean circulation and biogeochemistry. Although models suggest that REE release from lithogenic sediment in river discharge may dominate all other REE inputs to the oceans, the occurrence, mechanisms and magnitude of such a source are still debated. Here we present the first simultaneous observation...
متن کاملNutrient and phytoplankton biomass in the Amazon River shelf waters.
The Amazon River estuary is notable at the Amazon Continental Shelf, where the presence of the large amount of water originating from the Amazon during the river's falling discharge period was made evident by the low salinity values and high nutrient levels. Even so, the presence of oceanic waters in the shelf area was significant. Dissolved organic nitrogen was the predominant species of the n...
متن کاملZooplankton sample variability in a tidal estuary :
A series of 347 vertical zooplankton hauls was made at a 175-h anchor station in the upper St. Lawrence estuary, Quebec, and current meter profiles were recorded. The 95% confidence interval of a single observation in most of the copepod time series was about 25400% of the mean. Temporal variability consisted for the most part of semidiurnal fluctuations superimposed on a long term trend. Other...
متن کاملSeasonal variability in water chemistry and sediment characteristics of intertidal zone at Karnafully estuary, Bangladesh
The Karnafully is one of the most important rivers due to its profound influence on water chemistry and sediment characteristics. The present study intended to assess the quality of water and sediment from intertidal zone of this river in respect to the pollution index. Seasonal water and sediment samples were collected during four seasons (Monsoon, post-monsoon, winter, and pre-monsoon) of 201...
متن کاملSpectral Mixture Analysis of EO-1 Hyperion Imagery focused on the Spatial-Temporal Variability of the Amazon Floodplain Multicomponental Waters
The Amazon floodplain water composition undergoes intensive variations along the year as a response to the annual flood pulse. The present study analyzes the spectral mixtures of the optically active substances (OAS) in the Amazon floodplain waters with spaceborne hyperspectral images. The test site was located upstream the confluence of Amazon (white water) and Tapajós (clear-water) rivers, wh...
