Intertidal macrofauna and environmental stress at a riverine-marine boundary.
A field experiment was carried out to test the effect of pore water salinity on the macrobenthic assemblages in an estuarine region of the Tagus estuary (Portugal) subjected to wide fluctuations in salinity. The conditions at the experimental site ranged from freshwater (minimum salinity 0.2) to mesohaline (maximum salinity 15.3). The experimental site was affected by an unexpected deposition o...

Meurer, A.Z. & Netto,S.A. 2007. Seasonal dynamics of benthic communities in a shallow sublittoral site of Laguna Estuarine System (South, Brazil). Braz. J. Aquat. Sci. Technol. 11(2):53-62. ISSN 1808-7035. The seasonal variability of the benthic community in a shallow sublittoral site was analyzed at the Laguna Estuarine System, a chocked lagoon in South Brazil. Seasonal replicate samples for t...
متن کاملShallow Sublittoral Benthic Communities of the Laguna Estuarine System, South Brazil
Sediment properties, microphytobenthos biomass (chlorophyll a and phaeopigments), and the structure of the benthic communities of the three main lagoons (Mirim, Imaruí and Santo Antonio) of the Laguna Estuarine System, South Brazil, were analyzed during summer and winter. Microphytobenthos biomass did not differ significantly among the lagoons, but showed higher values in the summer. The macrof...
متن کاملOn Factors Controlling Marine Boundary Layer Aerosol Optical Depth
Sea spray aerosol is one of the largest natural contributors to the global aerosol loading and thus plays an important role in the global radiative budget through both direct and indirect effects. Previous studies have shown either strong or weak relationships betweenmarine boundary layer (MBL) aerosol optical depth (τ) and the near-surface wind speed. However, the marine τ is influenced by a w...
متن کاملAn examination of the factors controlling net methylation in estuarine sediments: Results from measurements and models
An examination of the distribution of mercury and methylmercury across estuarine ecosystems in the northeast USA was completed under a number of projects. Sites ranged from Maine to the Chesapeake Bay and included both pristine and contaminated sites. In addition to measurements of bulk sediment and porewater, methylation and demethylation rates were also measured. Results showed that the relat...
