Seasonal variability in water chemistry and sediment characteristics of intertidal zone at Karnafully estuary, Bangladesh
The Karnafully is one of the most important rivers due to its profound influence on water chemistry and sediment characteristics. The present study intended to assess the quality of water and sediment from intertidal zone of this river in respect to the pollution index. Seasonal water and sediment samples were collected during four seasons (Monsoon, post-monsoon, winter, and pre-monsoon) of 201...

متن کاملExternally forced fluctuations in ocean temperature at Greenland glaciers in non-summer months
Enhanced submarine melting of outlet glaciers has been identified as a plausible trigger for part of the accelerated mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet1–3, which at present accounts for about a quarter of global sea level rise4. However, our understanding of what controls the submarine melt rate is limited and largely informed by brief summer surveys in the fjords where glaciers terminate. ...
متن کاملSeasonal Changes in Fe along a Glaciated Greenlandic Fjord
Greenland’s ice sheet is the second largest on Earth, and is under threat from a warming Arctic climate. An increase in freshwater discharge from Greenland has the potential to strongly influence the composition of adjacent water masses with the largest impact on marine ecosystems likely to be found within the glaciated fjords. Here we demonstrate that physical and chemical estuarine processes ...
متن کاملObserved vulnerability of Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf to wind-driven inflow of warm deep water
The average rate of melting at the base of the large Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf in the southern Weddell Sea is currently low, but projected to increase dramatically within the next century. In a model study, melt rates increase as changing ice conditions cause a redirection of a coastal current, bringing warm water of open ocean origin through the Filchner Depression and into the Filchner Ice She...
