Results obtained in mapping algal belts in the Orbetello Lagoons are described using Daedalus/ MIVIS hyperspectral scanner aerial images. MIVIS has a spectral coverage in the Visible, Near-IR, Mid-IR and Thermal-IR regions, with 102 channels. The objective of the work is a procedure for the algal species recognition, using methods of spectral data analysis. The 1± 2 m deep brackish, shallow wat...

Agriculture encompasses both plant growing (agronomy, horticulture, and forestry) animal husbandry. Aquaculture is the aquatic embodiment of agriculture. Lagoons are main sources aquaculture in various countries around world which especially yield shrimp, finfish, macrophytes, mollusk. Agricultural effluents highly affecting lagoon water quality parameters Sri Lanka since most agricultural farm...

Animal production has changed from subsistence to an industrial model, lowering production costs but giving rise to higher potential environmental impact. When the effluents are not correctly managed, serious pollution events can occur. In Brazil liquid manure is commonly stored in reception pits or covered lagoons (biodigestors), followed by land application as a biofertilizer. In some regions...

Hematology is an important pathological and diagnostic tool. This paper describes the hematological parameters of 76 specimens of Hoplias malabaricus infested with monogenean parasites, which were collected from two lagoons. The hematological parameters included: erythrocyte count (Er), microhematocrit (Hct), hemoglobin (Hb), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and ...

It is generally considered that nitrogen availability is one of the major factors regulating primary production in temperate coastal marine environments. Coastal regions often receive large anthropogenic inputs of nitrogen that cause eutrophication. The impact of these nitrogen additions has a profound effect in estuaries and coastal lagoons where water exchange is limited. Such increased nutri...

introduction: due to the risks of hormones on human health and aquatic life, the aims of this study were to determine the efficiency of estrogen removal in the different stages of shiraz wastewater treatment plant using activated sludge process and marvdasht wastewater treatment plant using aerated lagoons process and also comparing the performance of both systems in removing the hormone of est...

This study provides information on the distribution and ecology of Callinectes sapidus in Turkey, as well its maximum daily catch set nets (trammel gillnets), commercial fishery lagoons. Data were collected 2020 by utilizing a telephone based questionnaire survey. Responses gathered from fishers (n = 6) who fish lagoons head cooperatives or members 104) 28 cities, including coastal regions Medi...

releases are also needed to evaluate odor effects through science-based setback models (Lim et al., 2000). Odor Odor and gas release from anaerobic lagoons for treating swine is evaluated by determining odor concentration (OC), waste affect air quality in neighboring communities but rates of release are not well documented. A buoyant convective flux chamber (BCFC) intensity, and hedonic tone (H...
