Annual pattern of denitrification and nitrate ammonification in estuarine sediment.
The seasonal variation and depth distribution of the capacity for denitrification and dissimilatory NO(3) reduction to NH(4) (NO(3) ammonification) were studied in the upper 4 cm of the sediment of Norsminde Fjord estuary, Denmark. A combination of C(2)H(2) inhibition and N isotope techniques was used in intact sediment cores in short-term incubations (maximum, 4 h). The denitrification capacit...
متن کاملDistribution and partitioning of heavy metals in estuarine sediment cores: implications for sediment quality standards
Total metal concentrations in surface sediments and historically contaminated sediments were determined in sediment cores collected from three estuaries (Thames, Medway and Blackwater) in south-east England. The partitioning behaviour of metals in these sediments was also determined using a sequential extraction scheme. These data were then compared with sediment quality values (SQVs) to determ...
متن کاملStatistical description of sediment transport experiments.
A longstanding problem in the study of sediment transport in gravel-bed rivers is related to the physical mechanisms governing bed resistance and particle motion. To study this problem, we investigated the motion of coarse spherical glass beads entrained by a steady shallow turbulent water flow down a steep two-dimensional channel with a mobile bed. This experimental facility is the simplest re...

متن کاملWave Induced Mine Burial and Sediment Transport in Coastal Environment: Wave and Sediment Transport Modeling Studies
The long-term goal of this work is to develop numerical simulation techniques for predicting waveinduced sediment transport and bed evolution in the coastal zone (order 10 meter depth outside the surf zone), at horizontal scales of tens of meters or less, and the scouring/burial around objects/obstacles (mine-like), partially buried in the bottom. This research was initially motivated by the Na...
