Sediment transport and dispersion in a cool-temperate estuary and embayment, Saco River estuary, Maine, USA
Article history: Received 11 June 2007 Received in revised form 12 February 2008 Accepted 20 February 2008 The Saco River flows through a rock bound, mid-latitude estuary recognized as the primary source of sand to the Saco Bay barrier beach system. To better constrain the conditions under which the Saco River contributes sand to Saco Bay, three moorings equipped with current meters and a CTD w...

متن کاملHaplosporidium nelsoni (MSX) epizootic in the Piscataqua River Estuary (Maine/New Hampshire, USA.).
A major epizootic of Haplosporidium nelsoni occurred during 1995 in the Piscataqua River Estuary, near the northern distributional limit of the parasite. Prevalence of H. nelsoni in samples of oysters, Crassostrea virginica, collected between 5 September and 18 December 1995 from sites in Maine and New Hampshire ranged from 15 to 81%, with up to 50% systemic infections. Associated proportions o...
متن کاملEffects of Nitrogen Availability and Form on Phytoplankton Growth in a Eutrophied Estuary (Neuse River Estuary, NC, USA)
Nitrogen availability and form are important controls on estuarine phytoplankton growth. This study experimentally determined the influence of urea and nitrate additions on phytoplankton growth throughout the growing season (March 2012, June 2011, August 2011) in a temperate, eutrophied estuary (Neuse River Estuary, North Carolina, USA). Photopigments (chlorophyll a and diagnostic photopigments...
متن کاملMethylmercury cycling in estuarine sediment pore waters (Penobscot River estuary, Maine, USA)
Particulate mercury (Hg) sequestered in coastal marine sediments may be efficiently methylated to highly toxic methylmercury (MeHg), thereby placing exposed organisms at risk of MeHg bioaccumulation. The Penobscot River estuary in Maine, U.S.A., has been subject to Hg contamination from multiple industries including a recently closed chlor-alkali production facility. Pore-water depth profiles o...
