Seasonality of materials transport through a coastal freshwater marsh: Riverine versus tidal forcing
Tập 9 Số 4 - Trang 301-308 - 1986
Transports of nitrate and suspended solids were measured six times from January
1984 until January 1985 in a small freshwater tidal bayou in south-central
Louisiana. The bayou and adjacent marshes are influenced by Atchafalaya River
discharges, tides, and coastal weather patterns. Large net ebb-directed water
transports occurred in winter, spring, and summer, coincident with high river
discharges,...
The economic effects of harmful algal blooms in the United States: Estimates, assessment issues, and information needs
Tập 25 Số 4 - Trang 819-837 - 2002
During the last several decades, harmful algal bloom (HAB) events have been
observed in more locations than ever before throughout the United States.
Scientists have identified a larger number of algal species involved in HABs,
more toxins have been uncovered, and more fisheries resources have been
affected. Whether this apparent increase in HAB events is a real phenomenon or
is the result of incr...
Temporal variability of remotely sensed suspended sediment and sea surface temperature patterns in Mobile Bay, Alabama
Tập 13 Số 2 - Trang 155-160 - 1990
Distribution patterns of suspended sediments and sea surface temperatures in,
Mobile Bay were derived from algorithms using digital data from the visible,
near infrared, and infrared channels of the Advanced Very High Resolution
Radiometer (AVHRR) on the NOAA-TIROS-N satellite. Closely spaced AVHRR scenes
for January 20, 24, and 29, 1982, were compared with available environmental
information take...
Salinity history of coastal marshes reconstructed from diatom remains
Tập 22 Số 4 - Trang 1078-1089 - 1999
Sediment cores were collected from three Louisiana coastal marsh ponds, dated
with radioisotopes, and analyzed for diatom remains to determine if long-term
salinity changes were evident in the sediment record. A diatom-based salinity
index formulated from a statistical comparison of available salinity data and
changing diatom assemblages demonstrated that diatom remains appear to preserve
salinity...
Effects of sediment contaminants and environmental gradients on macrobenthic community trophic structure in Gulf of Mexico estuaries
Tập 23 Số 3 - Trang 411-424 - 2000
Macrobenthic communities from estuaries throughout the northern Gulf of Mexico
were studied to assess the influence of sediment contaminants and natural
environmental factors on macrobenthic community trophic structure. Community
trophic data were also used to evaluate whether results from laboratory sediment
toxicity tests were effective indicators of site-specific differences in benthic
trophic ...
Capybara (Hydrochaeris hydrochaeris rodentia: Hydrochaeridae): A mammalian seagrass herbivore
Tập 27 Số 2 - Trang 197-200 - 2004
This note reports an unknown trophic interaction between a mammalian herbivore,
the capybara (Hydrochaeris hydrochaeris), and the seagrassRuppia maritima
(wigeongrass) and compares the feeding behavior of capybaras to other seagrass
grazers. Observations were made in Spring 2002 in the Barra Grande, a small,
shallow, moderately stratified, bar-built estuary at Ilha Grande, Rio de Janeiro
State, so...

The influence of nitrogen level, form, and application method on the growth response ofSpartina alterniflora in North Carolina
Tập 2 Số 2 - Trang 106-112 - 1979
The influence of nitrogen level, form, and application method on the growth
response of short and tallSpartina alterniflora was determined in a North
Carolina salt marsh. The application of various nitrogen levels increased the
aerial standing crop of shortSpartina as much as 172%, but had no significant
effect on that of the tall form. Band application produced a significantly
greater yield respo...
Marine and estuarine shallow water science and management: The interrelationship among habitats and their management
