Statistical Perspective and Pollution Indicator in Mengkabong Mangrove Sediment Sabah
The role of tidal processes on intertidal surface sediments is frequently stated but rarely investigated due to the methodological restrictions. This study provides a basis for describing the tidal effects on the mangrove sediment. It reports investigations into the chemical composition of mangrove surface sediment in Mengkabong lagoon, Sabah, Malaysia. The levels of 16 parameters were determin...
متن کاملheavy metals in mangrove surface sediment of mengkabong lagoon, sabah: multivariate and geo-accumulation index approaches
the inter-tidal mangrove environment of mengkabong lagoon is important as it supports the local fishing activities, nursery grounds for many fish and shellfish species, and as well as being central for ecotourism activities. the study showed that in general, the physicochemical parameters (ph, salinity and electrical conductivity), granulometric fractions, organic matter, base cations (na, k, c...
متن کاملThe Assessment of Mangrove Sediment Quality in Mengkabong Lagoon: An Index Analysis Approach
The objectives of this study are to use different types of indexes to assess the current pollution status in Mengkabong lagoon and select the best index to describe the Mengkabong sediment quality. The indexes used in this study were Enrichment Factor (EF), Geo-accumulation Index (Igeo), Pollution Load Index (PLI) and Marine Sediment Pollution Index (MSPI). Different indexes give diverse status...
متن کاملEndo- and exoglucanase activities in bacteria from mangrove sediment
The mangrove ecosystem is an unexplored source for biotechnological applications. In this unique environment, endemic bacteria have the ability to thrive in the harsh environmental conditions (salinity and anaerobiosis), and act in the degradation of organic matter, promoting nutrient cycles. Thus, this study aimed to assess the cellulolytic activities of bacterial groups present in the sedimen...
متن کاملQuantitative analyses of pollution-indicator and pathogenic bacteria in Mumbai waters from ballast water exchange perspective.
As large numbers of ships either take in ballast from or discharge their ballast into the Mumbai Harbor region, it is pertinent to quantify microorganisms of health concerns and suggest on the suitability of water for ballasting purposes. To meet with this main aim, a selected set of general and pathogenic bacterial groups and their seasonal variations were studied from the Mumbai Harbor area. ...
