This study consists of three parts: (i) Field work and data collection from the Loughor and Severn Estuaries. P adsorption increased with decreasing median sediment size in both estuaries. A positive correlation was found between the P adsorption in sediment and salinity in the Loughor Estuary, whereas a negative correlation was found in the Severn Estuary. Some factors, such as particle grain size, salinity, pH, organic matter, suspended sediment concentration and P concentration were found to control the exchangeable or loosely sorbed P (adsorbed P) in both estuaries.

Abstract:
The increasing concentration of carbon monoxide and other gases in the earth’s atmosphere is expected to cause temperatures on earth to increase. This condition, known as the greenhouse effect, could cause the sea level to rise due to the partial melting of the polar icecaps and the thermal expansion of the oceans. Such a rise in the sea level would affect the tides, currents, and sediment and salinity distributions within estuaries. To see the nature of these effects, a parametric study was performed on the Rappahannock River in Virginia with a two-dimensional, laterally averaged, time-depe

Abstract:
The Northern Gulf of Mexico and coastal Louisiana are experiencing accelerated relative sea level rise rates; therefore, the region is ideal for modeling the global affects of sea level rise (SLR) on estuarine dynamics in a transgressive barrier island setting. The field methods and numerical modeling in this study show that as barrier islands are converted to inner shoals, tidal exchange increases between the estuary and coastal ocean. If marshes are unable to accrete at a pace comparable to SLR, wetlands will deteriorate and the tidal exchange and tidal prism will further increase. Secondary

Les mécanismes contrôlant la dynamique des sédiments fins en milieu estuarien sont complexes du fait de la multiplicité des processus en action et de leurs interactions diverses et encore souvent mal comprises. L’étude de la dynamique des sédiments fins regroupe quelques uns des enjeux environnementaux fondamentaux. En raison de leur forte affinité avec une large gamme de contaminants métalliques et organiques, les particules fines sont en mesure de concentrer la pollution provenant à la fois du bassin versant et du milieu marin et dont les risques respectifs sont croissants (agriculture, traf

Abstract:
Le modèle input-output régional environnementalisé développé dans la thèse de M. Cordier suggère qu’il serait possible de restaurer 25% des surfaces naturelles de nourriceries de poissons détruites dans l’estuaire de la Seine entre 1834 et 2004. Le modèle suggère que la mesure de restauration pourrait augmenter de 15% à 23% la biomasse de soles produite dans l’estuaire par rapport à une situation sans mesure. Quant à l’effet des coûts de restauration sur les agrégats macroéconomiques (PIB, emploi, etc.), il génère une diminution qui ne dépasse pas 0,5% par rapport à une situation sans mesure.

Les estuaires assurent une production élevée et le transfert d'une grande quantité de matière organique (MO) du continent vers l'océan. Une étape importante pour comprendre les échanges de MO à l'interface continent - océan, le long de la côte française de la Manche Orientale, est d'établir un bilan de MO dans les trois plus grands estuaires : la Canche, l'Authie et de la Somme. Dans ce but, il a été réalisé une description sédimentologique et biologique du sédiment de surface et une caractérisation élémentaire et isotopique distinguant l'origine de la MO sédimentaire.

Thesis (MEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The Swartvlei estuary and lake system is situated on the southern coast of the Western Cape Province of South Africa and forms part of the core conservation area of the Wilderness National Park. The Swartvlei system comprises two interlinked water bodies, namely Swartvlei Lake and Swartvlei estuary. SANParks have been monitoring this estuary closely over the past two decades, due to its importance to the ecology and to tourism. There are also low-lying properties on the perimeter of the Swartvlei estuary which run the risk

Abstract:
Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations are increasing the rate at which anthropogenic CO2 is accumulating in the ocean, and thereby acidifying ocean water. However, accumulation of anthropogenic CO2 is not the only process affecting coastal oceans. Anthropogenic inputs of nutrients to coastal waters can result in massive algal blooms, a process known as eutrophication. Microbial consumption of this organic matter depletes bottom waters of oxygen and increases acidity through the release of CO2. This study assesses the synergistic effect of ocean acidification and eutrophication

There has been a continuous decline in both the production and general performance of the SRO in NSW estuaries over the past three decades. The relationship of this decline to both environmental and oyster-density related factors are assessed in this thesis. This question has been examined at different scales: a large scale that compares two different estuaries (Clyde and Shoalhaven Rivers, southern NSW); a regional scale that encompasses variations within an estuary and, at a lease scale that examines processes pertaining to individual or small groups of oysters. ...

博士<br>國立中山大學<br>環境工程研究所<br>106<br>In the context of global warming and climate change, greenhouse gas (GHG) emission has received a considerable attention for the past decades. Of many natural GHG sources, wetland plays an important role in modulating the concentrations of GHGs in the atmosphere. This study aims to continuously monitor the emission of greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4, and N2O) from a constructed wetland. A self-designed dynamic floating chamber was applied to collect GHGs through a Teflon tube connected to the top of the chamber, and in-situ monitored the concentrations of GHGs with
