Abstract:

Thesis advisor: Gail C. Kineke<br>Experiments were conducted in the Petitcodiac River in New Brunswick, Canada during June and August 2006 to study high-concentrations of suspended sediment in a turbulent system. This study will evaluate the conditions necessary for fluid mud formation by investigating 1) the suppression of turbulence at gradient Richardson numbers greater than 0.25; 2) a threshold condition for the amount of sediment a flow can maintain in a turbulent suspension; and 3) the influence of flocculation on vertical suspended-sediment transport. Direct measurements of salinity, te

Although some studies have investigated trace element accumulation as a result of urban expansion in the Western Cape, South Africa, few have catalogued the accumulation and behavior of trace elements resulting from agricultural practices. This study investigates the distribution and behavior of trace elements for the Olifants and Berg river catchments by focusing on the sediments of the estuaries. The dominant industry in both catchments is agriculture and there exist

Abstract:

The Mekong is the most productive river fishery in the world, and such as, the Mekong River Basin (MRB) is very important to very large human populations across the region as a source of revenue (through fishing and marketing of aquatic resources products) and as the major source for local animal protein. Threats to biodiversity in the MRB, either to the fishery sector itself or to other sectors are a major concern, even though currently, fisheries across this region are still very productive. If not managed properly however, fish population declines will cause significant economic impact and

Abstract:

Shrimp farming is important to the Vietnamese economy in terms of national income, job creation and poverty alleviation. However, shrimp farming is generally technically inefficient and probably generates too much pollution. To encourage the sustainable development of the Vietnamese shrimp industry, there is a need to improve the productivity of shrimp farms and at the same time to reduce the wastewater pollution generated by shrimp farming. The thesis has two aims: (1) to estimate the efficiency of shrimp farms in the Mekong Delta of Vietnam, with a particular focus on the productivity effect

As ever-increasing levels of carbon dioxide alter the chemistry of the Earth’s atmosphere, understanding the global carbon cycle becomes increasingly important. A particularly important component is the riverine carbon cycle, as rivers are the primary conduits for dissolved inorganic carbon from terrestrial watersheds to ocean basins. Stable carbon isotopes (13C/12C) were collected weekly and input into the mixing model IsoSource to delineate seasonal carbon sourcing along two nested basins in the upper Green River System, Kentucky.

Abstract:

The atmospheric fluctuations associated with sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the northern North Atlantic and their subsequent effects on river runoff variations over Siberia are studied in this thesis. A data analysis is performed in Part I of the thesis using 50 years (1930-79) of records of SST sea level pressure, precipitation and runoff. It is found from this analysis that the winter SST anomalies in the northern North Atlantic are significantly correlated with the winter and the following summer runoff fluctuations of the Ob and Yenisey rivers in western Siberia.<br>A modelling

The principal aim of this thesis is to reconstruct East Asian Monsoon (EAM) variability during the mid-Holocene, developing a relatively new proxy of bulk organic carbon isotopic signature (δ13C). C/N ratios and trace elements are also employed to conduct a multi-proxy case study from the Pearl River estuary, southern China. Sources of sediments within an estuary include river-derived terrestrial/freshwater input, in situ brackish-water suspended sediment and tide-derived marine input.

Abstract:

Desertification is the diminution or destruction of the biological potential of land, and can lead ultimately to desert-like conditions. The vegetation of southern Africa is claimed to have altered over the past 100 years and much of the change is attributed to pastoral practice. In recent years however there has been much debate around the issue of the deterioration and loss of productivity of the natural rangelands, specifically those under communal management. It is one thing to claim that the vegetation has changed but quite another to produce data and analyses to show this unequivocally.

Abstract:

Mid- and Late Holocene paleoceanographic changes over the S/SE Brazilian continental shelf have been accessed through a multi-proxy approach. Sedimetological, geochemical and microfaunal proxies were investigated in three high resolution marine sedimentary cores collected along the S/SE Brazilian shelf and discussed under a regional and global oceanographic and climatic perspective. The depositional processes of the S/SE Brazilian margin were submitted to two different hydrodynamic controls during Mid- and Late Holocene: (i) the northward penetration of the La Plata River Plume, bringing La Pl

Abstract:

To counter regnant arguments in the historiography about the putative historical “forgetting” of Afro-Platines in their nations, “‘¡Pobres negros!’” explores the various social representations and commemorations devoted to blacks in the River Plate over the period from the mid-1800s to the 1930s. While never uniformly or consistently positive, over the nineteenth century these social remembrances nevertheless experienced a radical transformation. Early intellectual nation builders among the Generation of 1837 associated blacks with the forces of social, political, and cultural “barbarism.” The

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis has been to reconstruct paleoenvironment, paleohydrology and paleoclimate in coastal southern Mozambique, with emphasis on tracing past flooding events on the lower Limpopo River floodplain. In order to extend flood chronologies beyond periods covered by instrumental data, sediments from lakes on the floodplain were studied (Lake Lungué, Coassane Oxbow, Lake Magandane and Lake Soane). Past sea-level variations and climate changes were deduced by analyzing sediments from coastal sites north of the floodplain area (Lake Chilau, Lake Nhauhache and Macassa Bay). To achieve t

Abstract:

Vattentillgången på Öland har under en lång tid varit mycket ansträngd och har kommit till en punkt då det inte längre är hållbart. För att nå en mer långsiktig lösning planerar Mörbylånga kommun med hjälp av Norconsult att bygga ett vattenreningsverk. Detta kommer att rena bräckt vatten ifrån Kalmarsund samt processvatten ifrån Guldfågeln AB, som tillsammans kommer att fungera som ett komplement till det redan befintliga sötvattnet. Två pilotanläggningar som renar processvatten ifrån en industri, genom ultrafilter kombinerat med omvänd osmos, har utvärderats. En metod för att sammanställa de

Abstract:

Dans les systèmes fluviaux-estuariens soumis à de fortes pressions agricoles, la matière organique dissoute (MOD) présente une origine liée essentiellement à l’amendement des sols. Cependant, il existe un manque d’information concernant la composition, le rôle et le devenir de cette MOD. L’objectif de cette thèse est d’apporter des éléments nouveaux sur l’identification des sources et du comportement de la MOD de façon globale et sélective dans des systèmes fluviaux-estuariens soumis à des impacts agricoles. L'analyse de la MOD a été réalisée à l'aide de 2 techniques analytiques récentes et or
