Impact of Stormwater Discharges on Water Quality in Coastal Marine Protected Areas.
Marine protected areas worldwide limit harvest to protect sensitive fisheries, but rarely do they address water quality goals that may have equally demonstrable impacts. California has over 500 coastal shoreline miles of marine protected areas designated as Areas of Special Biological Significance (ASBS), but receives untreated wet weather runoff discharges from over 1600 storm drain outfalls. ...
متن کاملDifferent variations of groundwater levels in karstic areas of Izeh and Lali, north of Khuzestan, with emphasis on remote sensing
The 10-year drought event from 2007 to 2017 caused a completely different behavior of groundwater of the Ilam-Sarvak karstic aquifers in northern Khuzestan in two regions Izeh (with a drop of about 120 meters) and Lali (with a drop of about 20 meters). In this paper, the drawdown in the Izeh karstic aquifers and the reduction of discharge of karstic wells are compared to the Lali aquifer based ...
متن کاملProtected areas – protected species?
Wild life: The elusive fosa (Cryptoprocta ferox) is the top predator in the dry deciduous forests of Madagascar, but very little was known about its biology until the 1990s. The presence of volunteer groups studying its role in the forest’s ecology has also helped to protect its habitat. (Photo: Earthwatch/ Luke Dollar.) The world’s latest national park has just been created in the east of Russ...
متن کاملOrigin of fecal contamination in waters from contrasted areas: stanols as Microbial Source Tracking markers.
Improving the microbiological quality of coastal and river waters relies on the development of reliable markers that are capable of determining sources of fecal pollution. Recently, a principal component analysis (PCA) method based on six stanol compounds (i.e. 5β-cholestan-3β-ol (coprostanol), 5β-cholestan-3α-ol (epicoprostanol), 24-methyl-5α-cholestan-3β-ol (campestanol), 24-ethyl-5α-cholesta...
متن کاملMonitoring and Management of Karstic Coastal Groundwater in a Changing Environment (Southern Italy): A Review of a Regional Experience
The population concentration in coastal areas and the increase of groundwater discharge in combination with the peculiarities of karstic coastal aquifers constitute a huge worldwide problem, which is particularly relevant for coastal aquifers of the Mediterranean basin. This paper offers a review of scientific activities realized to pursue the optimal utilization of Apulian coastal groundwater....
