Carbon dioxide dynamics in rivers and coastal waters of the “big island” of Hawaii, USA, during baseline and heavy rain conditionsAquatic Geochemistry - Tập 13 - Trang 1-18 - 2006
François S. Paquay, Fred T. Mackenzie, Alberto V. Borges
The distributions of the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) and total alkalinity (TA) were examined for a 6-month period in the Wailuku and Wailoa rivers and coastal waters of Hilo Bay on the west coast of the Island of Hawaii, USA. Main results for the largest and turbulent Wailuku River show in the watershed an oversaturation in CO2 with respect to atmospheric equilibrium and a CO2 unders...... hiện toàn bộ
Desert Potholes: Ephemeral Aquatic MicrosystemsAquatic Geochemistry - - 2005
Marjorie A. Chan, Katrina Moser, Jim M. Davis, Gordon Southam, Kebbi Hughes, Tim Graham
An enigma of the Colorado Plateau high desert is the “pothole”, which ranges from shallow ephemeral puddles to deeply carved pools. The existence of prokaryotic to eukaryotic organisms within these pools is largely controlled by the presence of collected rainwater. Multivariate statistical analysis of physical and chemical limnologic data variables measured from potholes indicates spatial and temp...... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of Diverse Urban Pressures on Water Characteristics in a Small Eastern Mediterranean WatershedAquatic Geochemistry - Tập 28 - Trang 111-133 - 2022

This work focuses on the characterization of a typical coastal karst watershed by addressing its physico-chemical parameters. The concentrations of the main ions clearly indicate the dominance of Ca2+ and HCO3− with a carbonate weathering rate equivalent to 230t/Km2/year; that is a typical weathering of karst watersheds. The spatio-temporal variability of dissolved organic matter (DOM) is also ass...... hiện toàn bộ
Weathering regime associated with subsurface circulation on volcanic islandsAquatic Geochemistry - Tập 17 - Trang 221-241 - 2011
Sétareh Rad, Karine Rivé, Claude Jean Allègre
Volcanic islands, being characterized by highly porous basaltic/andesitic lava flows and pyroclastic deposits, are subject to important chemical weathering by subsurface waters. Moreover, such subsurface weathering is impacted by hydrothermal springs in both active and non-active volcanic areas, thus increasing dissolved load concentrations. Here, we focus on the subsurface water chemistry in the ...... hiện toàn bộ
Geomicrobiology of Blood Falls: An Iron-Rich Saline Discharge at the Terminus of the Taylor Glacier, AntarcticaAquatic Geochemistry - Tập 10 - Trang 199-220 - 2004
Jill A. Mikucki, Christine M. Foreman, Birgit Sattler, W. Berry Lyons, John C. Priscu
Blood Falls, a saline subglacial discharge from the Taylor Glacier, Antarctica provides an example of the diverse physical and chemical niches available for life in the polar desert of the McMurdo Dry Valleys. Geochemical analysis of Blood Falls outflow resembles concentrated seawater remnant from the Pliocene intrusion of marine waters combined with products of weathering. The result is an iron-r...... hiện toàn bộ
Light-Induced Redox Cycling of Iron: Roles for CO2 Uptake and Release by Aquatic EcosystemsAquatic Geochemistry - Tập 21 - Trang 65-80 - 2015
Barbara Sulzberger
The light-induced redox cycling of iron plays an important role for the formation of iron species that are available to phytoplankton. In aquatic ecosystems, siderophore-type ligands are likely to be involved in the formation of bioavailable iron via photolysis of both solution and surface Fe(III) complexes. Atmospheric waters are important “reactors” for the formation of potentially bioavailable ...... hiện toàn bộ
