The seasonal variation, spatial distribution, and ecological risks of thirteen organophosphate
pesticides (OPPs) were studied in the Sundays and Swartkops estuaries in South Africa. Ten …

Coastal ecosystems serve as important nursery areas, yet they are facing many challenges.
For example, eutrophication-induced hypoxia is one of the major threats to the functioning of …

Hypoxia, especially in the bottom water, is occurring in deep and stratified reservoirs
worldwide, threatening aquatic biodiversity, ecosystem functions and services. However …

This paper examines the character of phytoplankton blooms in a restricted sub-tropical
lagoon along the Atlantic coast of central Florida. The results of the 23-year study (1997 …

This study assessed the tissue distribution, dietary intake, and potential health risks of eight
OPPs in Pomadasys commersonnii (Spotted grunter) and Mugil cephalus (Flathead mullet) …

In this study, a new low-cost magnetic composite comprising biochar-steel dust wastes was
fabricated by the facile co-pyrolysis method at different proportions of steel dust wastes. The …

A significant challenge that warrants attention is the influence of eutrophication on the
biogeochemical cycle of emerging contaminants (ECs) in aquatic environments. Antibiotics …

The harmful alga Heterosigma akashiwo possesses a hybrid nitrate reductase (NR) enzyme,
NR2-2/2HbN, which has the potential to convert NO to nitrate for assimilation into biomass …

Nutrient fluxes from fine-grained, organic-rich sediments in estuaries can hasten the onset
and progression of eutrophication and harmful algal blooms. Targeted efforts to manage …

The increased frequency and magnitude of harmful algal blooms (HABs) from
anthropogenic nutrient enrichment is of great concern in estuarine systems worldwide …
