A current‐activated sediment trap [PDF]
Limnology and Oceanography, 1994 A current‐activated sediment trap is described that collects particles based on preselected current speed and direction criteria. The collector incorporates a steep‐walled funnel, a motor‐driven carousel with sample cups, an absolute optical shaft encoder, and an acoustic current meter.

Journal of Limnology, 2017 Phytoplankton species composition is strongly affected by seasons, which should be taken into account in palaeolimnological studies. Although chrysophyte cysts and diatoms are widely used as palaeobioindicators in palaeolimnological studies, only ...

An experimental study on monitoring of marine sediment transport by using a 3D sediment trap
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 The observation and analysis of sediment transport in oceans is an important means for the protection of the marine environment, resource development, construction engineering, and element cycling.

Technical note: Sampling and processing of mesocosm sediment trap material for quantitative biogeochemical analysis [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2016 Sediment traps are the most common tool to investigate vertical particle flux in the marine realm. However, the spatial and temporal decoupling between particle formation in the surface ocean and particle collection in sediment traps at depth often ...

An evaluation of sediment trap methodology [PDF]
Limnology and Oceanography, 1975 Five sediment traps with collecting areas ranging from 8 to 1,465 cm2 collected the same amount of material, as measured by dry weight, ash weight, and phosphorus content, on a unit area basis. Variances from different size traps were not significantly different.

Characterizing transcriptomic responses to sediment stress across location and morphology in reef-building corals [PDF]
PeerJAnthropogenic activities increase sediment suspended in the water column and deposition on reefs can be largely dependent on colony morphology. Massive and plating corals have a high capacity to trap sediments, and active removal mechanisms can be ...

Diatoms as a paleoproductivity proxy in the NW Iberian coastal upwelling system (NE Atlantic) [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2017 The objective of the current work is to improve our understanding of how water column diatom's abundance and assemblage composition is seasonally transferred from the photic zone to seafloor sediments.

A Study of the Sedimentation and Storage Capacity Depletion of a Reservoir
Slovak Journal of Civil Engineering, 2023 Theoretical and empirical equations have previously been proposed to compute the sediment trap efficiency of a reservoir. The empirical equations were developed by analyzing a limited amount of field data for reservoirs in selected areas; thus, their ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.
