Partitioning of marine antifoulants in the marine environment
Science of The Total Environment, 2002The partitioning behaviour of the organic biocides, Irgarol 1051 and diuron and two inorganic biocides (copper and zinc) was investigated using six sediments of differing physico-chemical properties collected from unimpacted sites along the south coast of England.

Pharmaceuticals in the Marine Environment
2015Pharmaceuticals have been reported to occur in coastal environments across the globe from Antarctica to the Arctic. Worldwide, the number of people living along the coast is rapidly increasing, resulting in increased discharges of wastewater, which is a major source of pharmaceuticals entering aquatic environments.

Microplastics in the marine environment
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2011This review discusses the mechanisms of generation and potential impacts of microplastics in the ocean environment. Weathering degradation of plastics on the beaches results in their surface embrittlement and microcracking, yielding microparticles that are carried into water by wind or wave action.

The Micrococci in a Marine Environment
Journal of General Microbiology, 1952Micrococci forming part of the marine flora, are especially important in fish spoilage. They are common in estuarine mud but rare in sea water and in marine mud of the Australian continental shelf. Non-pigmented and orange strains are most abundant; lemon-yellow strains are found in the early stage of spoilage of teleost fish, but are rare in mud ...

Plastics in the Marine Environment
Annual Review of Marine Science, 2017Plastics contamination in the marine environment was first reported nearly 50 years ago, less than two decades after the rise of commercial plastics production, when less than 50 million metric tons were produced per year. In 2014, global plastics production surpassed 300 million metric tons per year.

Nitrogen in the Marine Environment
2008Since the first edition of Nitrogen in the Marine Environment was published in 1983, it has been recognized as the standard in the field. In the time since the book first appeared, there has been tremendous growth in the field with unprecedented discoveries over the past decade that have fundamentally changed the view of the marine nitrogen cycle. As a

The growth, distribution, and variability of phytoplankton populations in the North Atlantic are primarily controlled by the physical environment. This chapter provides an overview of the regional circulation of the North Atlantic, and an introduction to the key physical features and processes that affect ecosystems, and especially plankton, via the ...

As a result of the weathering of the continents by agents of erosion, erosion products are transported by water currents from the land surface to the marine environment. The progress of these particles, whether detrital or ionic, will be examined here in terms of the marine currents.

Microplastics in the Marine Environment
In recent years, microplastics (MPs) have emerged as a significant concern due to their widespread presence, non-biodegradable nature, and ability to adsorb, leach, and transport other pollutants in the marine environment. In addition, they pose a potential risk to human health through the consumption of seafood.Forero Lopez, Ana Deisy +3 more
