Calibration of a Bio-optical Model in the North River, North Carolina (Albemarle–Pamlico Sound): A Tool to Evaluate Water Quality Impacts on Seagrasses
Seagrasses are typically light limited in many turbid estuarine systems. Light attenuation is due to water and three optically active constituents (OACs): nonalgal particulates, phytoplankton, and colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM). Using radiative transfer modeling, the inherent optical properties (IOPs) of these three OACs were linked to the light attenuation coefficient, KPAR, which was...
متن کاملHistory of Toxic Pfiesteria in North Carolina Estuaries from 1991 to the Present
T fish kills for which Pfiesteria became well known began in North Carolina, when very little research had been conducted on this unusual dinoflagellate. North Carolina’s Albemarle-Pamlico Estuarine System, the epicenter of toxic Pfiesteria outbreaks, is the second largest estuary in area on the US mainland and the most important fish nursery ground on the US Atlantic Coast (Burkholder and Glas...
متن کاملSound science: ferries keep watch on coastal waters.
sound, a broad body of water touching land, sea, and freshwater environments , is part of the extensive Albemarle–Pamlico estuary system, where rivers from Virginia and North Carolina flow to the Atlantic Ocean. It is the second largest estuary in the United States, smaller only than the nearby Chesapeake Bay system. " The Pamlico Sound is the single most important fisheries nursery for the U.S...
متن کاملA Multi-Sensor Approach to Examining the Distribution of Total Suspended Matter (TSM) in the Albemarle-Pamlico Estuarine System, NC, USA
For many coastal waters, total suspended matter (TSM) plays a major role in key biological, chemical and geological processes. Effective mapping and monitoring technologies for TSM are therefore needed to support research investigations and environmental assessment and management efforts. Although several investigators have demonstrated that TSM or suspended sediments can be successfully mapped...
متن کاملPfiesteria piscicida Bibliography
The presence of P. piscicida in Chesapeake Bay is documented. The appearance and behavior of the algae and symptoms associated with fish mortality were consistent with those previously observed in P. piscicida-associated aquaria fish kills in North Carolina. The discovery of P. piscicida in Chesapeake Bay shows that dinoflagellates have a dramatic and far-reaching impact on fish stocks in shall...
