A study on the composition of size-fractionated suspended particulate matter in shallow coastal waters of Chabahar Bay
Abstract In the present study, sampling and analysis of size-fractionated suspended particulate matter (SPM) in coastal waters of Chabahar Bay have been done for the first time. Sampling has been conducted on December 25 of 2018 from 5 stations in different locations of the Bay in order to evaluate the effects of natural and human activities on SPM mass and composition. With an overall average...
متن کاملCarbon, nitrogen, and carbohydrate fluxes during the production of particulate and dissolved organic matter by marine phytoplankton
Although the principal source of marine organic matter is phytoplankton, experimental data on carbon and nitrogen mass balance during their growth cycle are lacking. Phytoplankton from diverse taxonomic groups (Synechococcus bacillaris, Phaeocystis sp., Emiliania huxleyi, Skeletonema costatum) were grown in synthetic seawater media, and changes in particulate and dissolved carbon, nitrogen, and...
متن کاملPhysicochemical and biological factors controlling water column metabolism in Sundarbans estuary, India
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Sundarbans is the single largest deltaic mangrove forest in the world, formed at estuarine phase of the Ganges - Brahmaputra river system. Primary productivity of marine and coastal phytoplankton contributes to 15% of global oceanic production. But unfortunately estuarine dynamics of tropical and subtropical estuaries have not yet received proper attention in spite of t...
متن کاملRelationship between particulate and extracellular carbon compounds of phytoplankton photosynthesis in a tropical estuary
The influence of seasonal environmental conditions on the formation and release of organic compounds by photosynthesizing phytoplankton was studied In a tropical estuary. The pattern of ''C fixat~on into the various intracellular compounds changed from pre-monsoon to monsoon depending on the quality and intensity of light available during the 2 seasons as well as phytoplankton composition. Duri...
متن کاملInvestigating the relationship between ground-level particulate matter and aerosol optical depth during dust storm episodes: a case study of Tehran
Background and Objective: During the last few years, air pollution and increasing levels of particulate matters (PMs) have become major public health issues in the megacity of Tehran. The high cost of constructing and maintaining air pollution monitoring stations has made it difficult to achieve adequate spatial-temporal coverage of PM data over various regions. In this regard, the use of remot...
