Sydney Harbour is a hotspot for diversity. However, as with estuaries worldwide, its diversity
and functioning faces increasing threats from urbanisation. This is the first synthesis of …

This paper discusses the distribution patterns of trace metals in sediments and suspended
particulate matter (SPM) in the three main estuaries of the Todos os Santos Bay (BTS) …

The uptake and release of 109Cd, 51Cr, 60Co, 59Fe, 54Mn, and 65Zn were studied using
end-member waters and particles from Port Jackson estuary, Australia. The kinetics of …

Geochemical records preserved in the long-lived carbonate skeleton of corals provide one
of the few means to reconstruct changes in seawater pH since the commencement of the …

Mangroves can be considered as biogeochemical reactors along (sub) tropical coastlines,
acting both as sinks or sources for trace metals depending on environmental factors. In this …

Australian ports serve diverse and extensive activities, such as ship**, tourism and
fisheries, which may all impact the quality of port water. In this work water quality monitoring …

Concentrations of dissolved metals (Cd, Cu, Ni, Mn and Zn) were determined for summer
and winter, under low-flow conditions in Port Jackson, a microtidal, well-mixed estuary in …

This research evaluated the trace metal pollution and the pollution sources in the coastal
sediments of Fethiye-Göcek Bay by using the spatial distribution maps, correlation and …

Down core variation of heavy metals in three sediment cores from Cochin estuary was
studied. The average concentration of iron, manganese, nickel, copper, zinc, cadmium, lead …

The detection rates of pharmaceuticals (Ps), personal care products (PCPs), current-use
pesticides (CUPs) and a food additive (FA) in Brisbane River estuary (Queensland), Sydney …
