Geochemistry of reduced inorganic sulfur, reactive iron, and organic carbon in fluvial and marine surface sediment in the Laizhou Bay region, China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Understanding the geochemical cycling of sulfur in sediments is important because it can have implications for both modern environments (e.g., deterioration of water quality) and interpretation of the ancient past (e.g., sediment C/S ratios can be used ...

Lateral Marsh Edge Erosion as a Source of Sediments for Vertical Marsh Accretion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
With sea level rise accelerating and sediment inputs to the coast declining worldwide, there is concern that tidal wetlands will drown. To better understand this concern, sources of sediment contributing to marsh elevation gain were computed for Plum ...

Quantifying nutrient and sediment erosion at riverbank cattle access points using fine-scale geo-spatial data

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Unrestricted cattle access to the riparian zone can exacerbate riverbank erosion in grazed grassland catchments. Knowledge gaps include the magnitude of erosion and other environmental pressures at cattle access points.

Quantifying stream phosphorus dynamics and total suspended sediment export in forested watersheds in Vermont [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Globally the quantity of reactive phosphorus (P) in soils, streams and groundwater has greatly increased throughout the 20th and early 21st centuries. This phenomenon is problematic in Vermont, evidenced by the repeated cyanobacteria blooms in shallow ...

Uptake and release of phosphate by littoral sediment of a freshwater lake under the influence of light or mechanical perturbation

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2010
The littoral sediment of Lake Constance, Germany, is influenced by varying light conditions and mechanical perturbation. This study documents the effects of these changes on phosphate exchange between sediment and lake water.

Trends Analysis of Simultaneously Extracted Metal Copper Sediment Concentrations from a California Agricultural Waterbody including Historical Comparisons with Other Agricultural Waterbodies

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
The objectives of this study were to: (1) assess annual, seasonal and spatial trends in simultaneously extracted metal copper (SEM copper) sediment concentrations in an agricultural California waterbody (Cache Slough) sampled over three years and two ...

Evaluating the influence of lake morphology, trophic status and diagenesis on geochemical profiles in lake sediments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Recent geochemical studies provide evidence that changes in vertical distributions of nutrients in lake sediments are driven by anthropogenic activities, based primarily on trends of increasing concentrations in upper sediment layers.

A negative correlation between mercury content in muscle and body weight in carp from uncontaminated ponds

open access: yesCzech Journal of Food Sciences, 2015
The relationship between body weight and total mercury content in the muscle of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) from 13 uncontaminated ponds in South and West Bohemia was investigated. In total, 215 three-years-old marketable carps and 26 samples of bottom

Community Assembly and Co-Occurrence Patterns of Microeukaryotes in Thermokarst Lakes of the Yellow River Source Area

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Thermokarst lakes are important aquatic ecosystems in cold regions, experiencing several changes due to global warming. However, the fundamental assembly mechanisms of microeukaryotic communities in thermokarst lakes are unknown.

Improper Maintenance Activities Alter Benefits of Urban Stormwater Treatment in a Temperate Constructed Wetland in NSW, Australia

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Chemistry, 2022
Constructed wetlands (CWs) are an effective means to treat nutrient and sediment pollution in urban stormwater runoff to minimise impact on receiving waterways. Maintenance of devices is recognised as a major contributing factor to performance.
