Manurung J, Siregar IZ, Kusmana C, Dwiyanti FG. 2017. Genetic variation of the mangrove species Avicennia marina in heavy metal polluted estuaries of Cilegon Industrial Area, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 18: 1109-1115. Mangrove forests are often facing various anthropogenic disturbances, particularly in the industrial area. However, information on the status of industrial heavy metal pollution and ...

The effects of environmental factors on variations of dissolved oxygen (DO) saturation was assessed in 2 estuaries (Bilbao and Urdaibai) in the Bay of Biscay with contrasting hydrography and anthropogenic impact, for the period 1997 to 2006, using generalised additive models (GAMs) and generalised additive mixed models (GAMMs). Spatial and temporal variations in DO saturation and the current se...

Alterations of species phenology in response to climate change are now unquestionable. Until now, most studies have reported precocious occurrence of life cycle events as a major phenological response. Desynchronizations of biotic interactions, in particular predator-prey relationships, are however assumed to strongly impact ecosystems' functioning, as formalized by the Match-Mismatch Hypothesi...

The contribution of terrigenous organic matter (TOM) to high molecular weight dissolved and particulate organic matter (POM) was examined along the salinity gradient of the Delaware Estuary. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) was fractionated by ultra®ltration into 1±30 kDa (HDOM) and 30 kDa±0.2 mm (VHDOM) nominal molecular weight fractions. Thermochemolysis with tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH...

ABSTRAK Wilayah estuari merupakan daerah semi tertutup yang mempunyai batasan langsung dengan laut terbuka dan daerah-daerah muara sungai. Estuari suatu komponen dari ekosistem pesisir terkenal sangat produktif mudah terganggu kestabilannya akibat aktivitas manusia proses alamiah. Dalam hal ini terdapat hubungan yaitu biotik abiotik. Salah satu berperan dalam adalah fitoplankton. Penelitian ber...

Bed sediment, velocity and turbidity data are presented from a large (145 km long), generally well-mixed, micro-tidal estuary in south-eastern Australia. The percentage of mud in the bed sediments reaches a maximum in a relatively narrow zone centred 30±40 km from the estuary mouth. Regular tidal resuspension of these bed sediments produces a turbidity maximum (TM) zone in the same location. Th...

The estuary of the River Elbe between Hamburg and the North Sea (Germany) is a sink for contaminated sediment and suspended particulate matter (SPM). One major concern is the effect of human activities on the hydrodynamics, particularly the intensive dredging activities in this area that may result in remobilization of sediment-bound pollutants. The aim of this study was to identify pollutants ...

Integration of ichnologic, sedimentologic, and stratigraphic studies of cores from Lower Pennsylva-nian oil and gas reservoirs (lower Morrow Sandstone, southwest Kansas) allows researchers to distinguish between estuarine-and open-marine deposits. This study represents one of the first published ichnologic analyses of a Paleozoic reservoir and, therefore, provides a unique opportunity to test t...

Rates of denitrification and nitrous oxide (N2O) formation, and the sources of N2 and N2O, were examined by the isotope-pairing technique in three U.K. estuaries (Colne, Humber, Conwy), which ranged from extremely nutrified to oligotrophic. Nitrous oxide concentrations were supersaturated throughout the year with annual averages of 603% in the Colne, 158% in the Humber, and 133% in the Conwy, i...
