Abstract:
A geographical survey of sediments in the Derwent Estuary, near Hobart (Tasmania), for sterol biomarkers of faecal pollution has established the extent, distribution and severity of sewage pollution in the estuary. Analysis of biomarkers for terrestrial plants has also determined the distribution of pulp fibre discharged from a paper mill at Boyer in the upper estuary. Contributions from other sources of extractable organics, such as hydrocarbons and terrestrial plant and animal faecal matter from stormwater and creeks were qualitatively evaluated. On the basis of the distribution of the faeca

Abstract:
Following surveys recently carried out in Maputo estuary, a survey with the purpose of acquiring data required to characterize the estuary was carried out in December 1983. After reviewing the hydrology of the tributaries to the estuary, the parameters to be monitored - salinity, conductivity, temperature, and dissolved oxygen, are referred. Finally, taking also into account previous information available, an evaluation of the results, and an assessment of the estuary are done. The estuary can be classified as well mixed, since the vertical salinity gradients found are small. The Umbeluzi estu

Abstract:
Environmental Context.Dating estuary sediments provides insights into the materials entering the estuary and can pinpoint when the contamination occurred. Heavy metal contamination is a known health risk but attributing it to a source can be contentious. For a sample sourced downstream of a city and a mining region, lead-210 dating and stable lead isotope analyses uncovered the sources of lead inputs. These methods quantified the extent that upstream mining activities and, for the first time, the extent that non-mining inputs (vehicles, industry) contributed to the estuary’s pollution. Abstrac

Abstract:
SynopsisDuring the period of severe sewage pollution of the Clyde Estuary and severe industrial pollution of the Garnock Estuary, these two estuaries could be distinguished by unusual abundances of one particular alga in each estuary, respectively Melosira nummuloides and Rosenvingiella polyrhiza. However, in terms of species presence data alone these estuaries did not differ from others in the British Isles. The unusual abundances of these two algal species might be ascribed to their special characteristics, related to the polluted conditions in the estuaries.

Abstract:
Surface water samples were collected monthly from December, 2012 to November, 2013 at the middle part of Shatt Al-Arab Estuary at Basrah city during the low tide period to assess the organic pollution status using the Organic Pollution Index (OPI), and the aquaculture activities using Minimum Operator Concept (MOC). Results of biological oxygen demand (BOD5), ammonium, nitrite and orthophosphate were used to calculate OPI, while dissolved oxygen (DO), total phosphate and turbidity were used to calculate MOC. Results showed that OPI values range from 4.5 - 4.75 referred to weak organic–non orga

Abstract:
SynopsisA review is given of some of the hydrodynamic features of the Clyde Estuary and examples are used to emphasise their relevance to an understanding of the effect of pollution on water quality. Computer modelling of the estuary and its role in pollution management are briefly described.Reference is made to the oceanographic survey methods regularly employed in the Firth of Clyde and examples provided of the results and their application to pollution studies. The potential for computer modelling of coastal waters is stressed.

Abstract:
Knowledge of fine sediment delivery (both timing and loading) is fundamental to the assessment of non-point source pollution in estuarine environments. This study comprised three key components that led to the development of a fine sediment and particulate associated phosphorus budget in a typical agricultural estuary. Firstly, to explore catchment inputs, turbidity and flow were monitored continuously upstream of the freshwater/saline interface on the main stem channel of the south Devon River Avon, which drains a medium sized agricultural catchment (area 340 km2), in southwest UK.

Ihis work on the Sado outer estuary (western coast of Portugal) considers its bio-sedimentary characterization, and evaluates the prevailing hydrophysical and sedimentary environmental conditions. The quality status of the estuary is discussed. The thesis is based on the analysis of superficial sediments and benthic macrofauna collected from 133 sites, and on hydrodynamical data obtained from a mathematical model. The environmental variables considered were the superficial sediment temperature, granulometry and organic matter content, together with the water current velocities, flow and shear
