چکیده

a comprehensive evaluation of the residual levels of organochlorine insecticides (ocis) in the sediment cores of cochin estuarine system (ces) is highlighted in this research article. it assessed the distribution pattern and impact of these xenobiotics in this environmental niche. fifteen persistent organochlorine compounds (ocs) were quantitatively analysed in the six sediment core samples collected from specific sites of ces, during november 2009. among these contaminants, residual levels of hch, cyclodienes and ddt were the dominant entities. according to the sediment quality guidelines (sqgs), the higher concentration of these persistent toxicants found in the ces was enough to pose ecological risk to the bottom dwelling consumers. this study provides a better understanding of these trace organics in the environment and could develop more effective strategies for protecting this vulnerable ecosystem from further pollution. further, sediment screening bioassays can also be conducted for both sediment quality evaluation and identification of existing potent toxicants.

Residual fluxes of water and nutrient transport through the main inlet of a tropical estuary, Cochin estuary, West Coast, India.

Determining robust values for estuarine material fluxes has been a complex task and an interdisciplinary research challenge. With the advent of acoustic Doppler profilers (ADPs) having bottom-track capability and which provides three-dimensional current velocity profiles, more accurate estimation of cross-sectional fluxes is far accomplished in unsteady and bidirectional flow conditions of estu...
