The spatial and temporal distribution of suspended solids, turbidity, temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a and total phosphorus were estimated and mapped with various degrees of success in Matla Estuary using satellite (Landsat Thematic Mapper) imagery. All the indicators exhibit a similar spatial pattern within the estuary. High values are found at both the saltwater and freshwater ends of the...

As more manufactured stormwater treatment devices enter the market, stormwater managers are searching for effective and rapid methods for evaluating device performance. Many agencies require vendors to test full-scale versions of their devices under controlled conditions. The most common parameter used to document performance is suspended solids for several reasons: 1 many pollutants attach to ...

Indonesia has a high potential for pearl oyster farming due to its diverse marine habitats, warm waters, and abundant supply of seaweed, which is the preferred food oysters. home several species oysters, including Pinctada maxima, are prized their large size quality pearls. Water plays crucial role in cultivation maxima. Factors such as temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen levels, presen...

Rubber processing industry effluent represents a serious environmental pollution problem especially for underground and surface water. Wastewater collected from rubber processing industry was characterized for their pollution characteristics. Analysis showed that the biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total dissolved solids (TDS), total suspended solids (TSS), total s...

Bangalore city hosts two Urban Wastewater Treatment Plants (UWTPs) towards the periphery of Vrishabhavathi valley, located in Nellakedaranahalli village of Nagasandra and Mailasandra Village, Karnataka, India. These plants are designed and constructed with an aim to manage wastewater so as to minimize and/or remove organic matter, solids, nutrients, disease-causing organisms and other pollutant...

Dredging activity may cause sediment resuspension, altering water quality regarding to dissolved oxygen and conductivity (measured in the field), turbidity, total suspended solids nutrients (such as phosphorus organic carbon), analyzed laboratory. In this work ten sampling campaigns were performed four areas of Santos harbor’s navigation channel, with different grain sizes, order monitor along ...
