Nutrient Loads Flowing into Coastal Waters from the Main Rivers of China (2006–2012)
Based on monthly monitoring data of unfiltered water, the nutrient discharges of the eight main rivers flowing into the coastal waters of China were calculated from 2006 to 2012. In 2012, the total load of NH3-N (calculated in nitrogen), total nitrogen (TN, calculated in nitrogen) and total phosphorus (TP, calculated in phosphorus) was 5.1 × 10(5), 3.1 × 10(6) and 2.8 × 10(5) tons, respectively...
متن کاملTerrestrial discharge into the Great Barrier Reef Lagoon: nutrient behavior in coastal waters.
Pollution of coastal regions of the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area (GBRWHA) is dominated by river discharge associated with agricultural development of the adjacent catchments. Runoff of sediment, nutrients and pesticides has sharply increased since European settlement. Since 1991 plumes from river discharge entering the GBRWHA have been mapped by aerial mapping of plume edges and conce...
متن کاملForms of Nutrients in Rivers Flowing into Lake Chaohu: A Comparison between Urban and Rural Rivers
Nutrient inputs from rivers play an important role in lake eutrophication. To compare the forms characteristics of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) in rivers flowing through rural and urban areas, water samples were collected seasonally from five urban rivers and six rural rivers flowing to Lake Chaohu, China. Higher total phosphorus (TP), particulate phosphorus (PP), soluble reactive phosphorus...
متن کاملCauses and Consequences of Nutrient Overenrichment of Coastal Waters
While developed societies made significant progress in reducing the discharge of many wastes— including industrial wastes, organic matter in sewage, sludge, contaminated sediments and other material dumped at sea, toxic compounds, and oil— into coastal waters, nutrient over-enrichment intensified and spread widely among the planet’s coastal environments during the last half of the 20 century. T...
متن کاملMicrobial and nutrient pollution of coastal bathing waters in Mauritius.
The coastal pollution problem in Mauritius is exacerbated by the hydrogeology of the volcanic substratum. Bacterial contamination of bathing waters and nutrients, water temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen (DO) were monitored at three different spatial and temporal scales along the coastline of Mauritius during 1997-1998. Standard techniques for water sample collection and analysis set b...
