In order to demonstrate filtration rate of edible cockle Cerastoderma edule under different salinity and temperature conditions, two groups namely healthy and parasited with Labratrema minimus (Bucephallidae; Digenea) were compared. Results showed that the parasited ones had difficulties in adaptation to the extreme conditions of salinity and temperature. Our results also showed that a healthy ...

The European Space Agency SMOS (Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity) mission aims at obtaining global maps of both variables from space for large scale and climatic studies. It uses an L-band microwave interferometric radiometer with aperture synthesis (MIRAS) to measure brightness temperature (TB) emitted by the Earth surface and then compute from it the two geophysical parameters. The retrieval ...

[1] A new centennial-scale Mg/Ca temperature record from the California margin (ODP Site 1017E) reveals large millennial-scale oscillations between 10 to 60 kyr. This record indicates that sea surface temperature on the California Margin warmed rapidly on the deglacial by 7.4 0.8 C, and was preceded by a pre-Bølling temperature oscillation of 2.6 1.2 C. Millennial-scale events of the last glaci...

Distributions of temperature (T ) and salinity (S) and their relationship in the oceans are the result of a balance between T–S variability generated at the surface by air–sea fluxes and its removal by molecular dissipation. In this paper the role of different motions in setting the cascade of T–S variance to dissipation scales is quantified using data from the North Atlantic Tracer Release Exp...

The U.S. Geological Survey and other federal and state agencies have been collecting continuous temperature and salinity ...

Salinity of the growth medium was found to have a marked effect on the maximal growth temperature of four bacteria isolated from marine sources. Vibrio marinus MP-1 had a maximal growth temperature of 21.2 C at a salinity of 35% and a maximal growth temperature of 10.5 C at a salinity of 7%, the lowest salinity at which it would grow. This effect was shown to be due to the presence of various c...

Pronounced oscillations of ocean temperature and salinity occur in the Greenland Sea in a 2000 year integration of a coupled ocean-atmosphere model. The oscillations, involving both the surface and subsurface ocean layers, have a timescale of approximately 40-80 years, and are associated with fluctuations in the intensity of the East Greenland Current. The Greenland Sea temperature and salinity...

in the recent years, increasing production of waste as a result of population growth, increased food consumption, industrial development and urbanization growth, is regarded as a serious challenge. vermicompost, as an end product of urban waste recycling with proper physicochemical features, can play an effective role in plant growth and development and also in reducing harmful effects of vario...
