Six metrics characterize annual aspects of the magnitude and timing of shellfish toxicity resulting from dinoflagellates of the genus Alexandrium at >100 monitoring stations over 21 years (1985–2005) along the coast of Maine, northeastern USA. Climatologies at each station show distinct geographic patterns, generally consistent with previous reports based fewer stations/years. Earliest initiati...

This study aims at modelling the daily concentrations of nonylphenolic compounds such as 4-nonylphenol (4-NP), nonylphenol monoethoxylate (NP1EO) and nonylphenoxy acetic acid (NP1EC) within the Seine River downstream of Paris City for over a year, firstly in the present state (year 2010) and for years 2050 and 2100 in order to assess the consequences of global change on the fate of nonylphenoli...

prut river is very important for sustaining the biodiversity and economical activities in its area for romania, ukraine and republic of moldova. anthropogenic activities are present everywhere especially near a big water flow because they need a close water resource. the major problems remain the impact and a possible risk produced as a negative result in these activities (agriculture close to ...

hydrographically bolivian poopó lake is located in the basin of desaguadero river and it has over a dozen main tributary rivers and other smaller rivers with lower flow. the mine water discharge from the abandoned and current mining activities polluted these rivers by carrying heavy metals, dissolved and suspended solids which in turn polluted the poopó lake which is considered as an important ...

The relationship between some habitat factors and fish assemblage was analyzed in the Taleghan River, Alborz Province, Iran. Fish specimens from thirty-three sites were sampled by electrofishing device in October 2014. The habitat parameters, including elevation (m), water depth (cm), river width (m), river slope (%), current velocity (m.s-1), number of large stone (> 15 cm), average stone diam...

Successful river flow time series forecasting is a primary goal and an essential procedure required in the planning and water resources management. River flow data are important for engineers to design, build and operate various water projects and development. The monthly river flow data taken from Department of Irrigation and Drainage, Malaysia are used in this study. This study aims to develo...
