FRESH-SALT WATER INTERFACE FORMED BY FRESH WATER INJECTION CONDUIT IN COASTAL AQUIFERS

Clay settling in fresh and salt water

To gain insight into the process of sedimentation occurring when clay-laden estuaries and deltas entermarinewater, we perform laboratory experiments tomeasure the settling rate of initially unflocculated kaolin clay in fresh and salt water. In fresh water, sedimentation is a slow process with the clay particle concentration gradually decreasing nearly uniformly over hours, consistent with the t...

Comparative Study of Cadmiumand Arsenic Accumulation in Toothed Carp (Aphanius sophiae)in Fresh and Salt Water

Background: Anthropogenic activities release high concentrations of heavy metals into the aquatic ecosystems, which can be absorbed by the aquatic organisms. In this study, the accu-mulation of cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) was compared in liver, gill and muscle tissues of toothed carp (Aphanius sophiae) in fresh and salt water. Methods: A total of 175 fish samples were collected from the Sh...
