Characterization of microplastics in the surface waters of an urban lagoon (Bizerte lagoon, Southern Mediterranean Sea): Composition, density, distribution, and influence of environmental factors

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2020
Compared to open sea environments, there is still limited knowledge about microplastic levels in semi-enclosed systems such as coastal lagoons. This work aims to assess the levels of MPs in the waters of an urban lagoon (Bizerte lagoon, northern Tunisia)

Horizontal and vertical gene transfer drive sediment antibiotic resistome in an urban lagoon system.

Journal of Environmental Science, 2021
Rapid urbanization has resulted in pervasive occurrence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in urban aquatic ecosystems. However, limited information is available concerning the ARG profiles and the forces responsible for their assembly in urban ...

Microplastics in edible mussels from a southern Mediterranean lagoon: Preliminary results on seawater-mussel transfer and implications for environmental protection and seafood safety.

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2020
This study assesses the microplastics (MPs) levels in mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) and seawater from a southern Mediterranean lagoon (Bizerte lagoon, Northern Tunisia) and discusses the potential effects of its consumption on human health ...

Microplastics in commercial molluscs from the lagoon of Bizerte (Northern Tunisia).

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2019
Microplastic (MP) pollution was investigated, for the first time, in six commercial molluscs collected from the lagoon of Bizerte during March 2018. The objective of this study was to determine the bioavailability of MPs to marine organisms and their ...

Lagoon water quality monitoring based on digital image analysis and machine learning estimators.

Water Research, 2020
Lagoon has been widely used to treat animal wastewater. However, because lagoon effluent often fluctuates in water quality, land application of the effluent may pose a risk to the environment and/or public health.

Laboratory study on wave-induced setup and wave-driven current in a 2DH reef-lagoon-channel system

, 2020
The nearshore wave action at many barrier reefs or reef atolls can generate wave setup and drive a 2DH reef-lagoon-channel circulation. Previous laboratory studies on such reef-lagoon-channel system focused mainly on the 1DH wave-flume experiments ...

Occurrence of organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls in sediment and fish in Cau Hai lagoon of Central Vietnam: Human health risk assessment.

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2019
This is the first study on polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in fish from the Cau Hai lagoon, a part of the largest coastal lagoon in Southeast Asia. Seven selected PCB congeners and organochlorine pesticides in sediments and edible fish tissues were ...

Can an oligotrophic coastal lagoon support high biological productivity? Sources and pathways of primary production.

Marine Environmental Research, 2019
Coastal lagoons are among the most productive systems in the world. Many marine species make use of this by entering the lagoons as juveniles for nursery and growth before returning to the sea for reproduction.
