Perfluorinated compounds in water, sediment, soil and biota from estuarine and coastal areas of Korea.
Soil, sediment, water, and biota collected from the western coast of Korea were analyzed to determine occurrence and sources of perfluorinated compounds (PFCs). PFCs were significantly concentrations of PFCs were measured in some water and biological samples, while concentrations of PFCs in soils and sediments were relatively low. The most widely detected compound was found to be perfluorooctan...
متن کاملCoastal and Estuarine Research Federation
The mass of nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and calcium) imported during 1984 and 1985 to the North Inlet Estuary, Georgetown County, South Carolina, by precipitation and runoff was compared with that imported by a colonial-nesting wading bird, the white ibis (Eudocimus albus). From late March through late June of both years, breeding ibises imported nutrients to the North Inlet Est...
متن کاملCoastal hypoxia and sediment biogeochemistry
The intensity, duration and frequency of coastal hypoxia (oxygen concentration <63μM) are increasing due to human alteration of coastal ecosystems and changes in oceanographic conditions due to global warming. Here we provide a concise review of the consequences of coastal hypoxia for sediment biogeochemistry. Changes in bottomwater oxygen levels have consequences for early diagenetic pathways ...
متن کاملHarmful Elements in Estuarine and Coastal Systems
Estuaries and coastal zones are dynamic transitional systems which provide many economic and ecological benefits to humans, but also are an ideal habitat for other organisms as well. These areas are becoming contaminated by various anthropogenic activities due to a quick economic growth and urbanization. This chapter explores the sources, chemical speciation, sediment accumulation and removal m...
متن کاملModeling of Hydrodynamics and Cohesive Sediment Processes in an Estuarine System: Study Case in Danshui River
Danshui River estuarine system is the largest estuarine system in northern Taiwan and is formed by the confluence of Tahan Stream, Hsintien Stream and Keelung River. A comprehensive one-dimensional model was used to model hydrodynamics and cohesive sediment transport in this branched River estuarine system. The applied unsteady model uses advection/dispersion equation to model the cohesive sedi...
