A lightweight clear liquid optical chamber baited remote underwater video system for monitoring fish in turbid coastal wetlands

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Clear liquid optical chamber baited remote underwater video systems (CLOC‐BRUV) are an effective option for assessing fish assemblages in turbid water, but current designs are limited by their large size and high operational costs. We developed a lightweight CLOC‐BRUV unit and evaluated its performance through proof‐of‐concept trials and field

Sampling effort to characterize estuarine macroinfaunal communities in patchy habitats

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Estuarine benthic macroinfauna have aggregated, patchy distributions, making accurate community measurements dependent upon sampling scales. The purpose of this study is to determine the appropriate core sizes and sampling effort needed to characterize benthic infaunal communities in Corpus Christi Bay, Texas, USA.

Photochemical enrichment of dissolved organic matter from different soils of a tidal river basin: significance to estuarine carbon cycle

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Eroded soils sustain a substantial part of organic matter in tidal rivers adjacent to estuaries, and photochemical transformations of soils in tidal rivers would influence estuarine elemental cycles. However, complex aquatic environments and diverse soil

Applicability of the steady‐state oxygen stable isotope method for estimating metabolism in low‐productivity Arctic lakes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolism is a key property of lake ecosystem functioning, but logistical challenges make it difficult to estimate across remote regions. The steady‐state dissolved oxygen (DO) stable isotope method (18O method) estimates metabolism from discrete water samples and thus enables large‐scale surveys.

Co-existence of Methanogenesis and Sulfate Reduction with Common Substrates in Sulfate-Rich Estuarine Sediments

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
The competition between sulfate reducing bacteria and methanogens over common substrates has been proposed as a critical control for methane production.

Larval fish in the vicinity of aquaculture intakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has recently proposed that all facilities pumping water from Texas estuaries be fitted with 0.5 mm screening to prevent larval fish mortality at these facilities. Data on larval fish distributions in Texas estuaries is

Individual movement modeling expands the power of migratory species observations: North Atlantic right whale case study

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding a population's distribution depends on observing the presence and movement of individuals throughout their range. For highly mobile marine species, these observations typically rely on high effort monitoring programs. Tracking enough individuals to understand trends in movement behavior is not always logistically feasible, and ...

Short-term changes in the plankton of a highly homogeneous Basin of the Straits of Magellan (Paso Ancho) during spring 1994

open access: yesScientia Marina, 1999
Changes in nutrients, chlorophyll and zooplankton were followed for 11 d in a basin of the Straits of Magellan (Paso Ancho), characterized by a homogeneous water column during a spring event defined by a drastic change in wind stress and direction ...

Quantifying temporal dynamics of greenhouse gas emissions in lake mesocosms: Deployment of a low‐cost measurement system

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from freshwater ecosystems contribute significantly to global carbon budgets, yet they remain poorly constrained due to limited high‐frequency measurements. We tested a low‐cost, high‐frequency GHG measurement system in a long‐term mesocosm experiment in Lemming, Denmark, over a 7‐month period, focusing on CO2 ...
