Abstract:
Elevated arsenic concentrations have been reported in a drinking water and irrigation-supply aquifer of Stuarts Point, New South Wales, Australia. Arsenic occurrence in such aquifers is potentially a major issue due to their common use for high yield domestic and irrigation water supplies. Ten multi-level piezometers were installed to depths of approximately 30 m in the sand and clay aquifer. Sediment samples were collected at specific depths during drilling and analysed for chemical and mineralogical composition, grain size characteristics, potential for arsenic release from solid phase and d

Améliorer la durée de vie est un enjeu important qui s'impose lors du déploiement des réseaux de capteurs sans fil (RCsFs). En effet, ces réseaux sont composés par des capteurs autonomes alimentés par des batteries qu'il est difficile de recharger ou remplacer. Le challenge est donc d'assurer le fonctionnement de ces réseaux pendant plusieurs années sans aucune intervention extérieure majeure.Afin de maximiser la durée de vie des RCsFs, nous avons d'abord exploré la possibilité d'introduire plusieurs puits mobiles.

Inland waters process large amounts of organic carbon, contributing to CO2 and CH4 emissions, as well as storing organic carbon (OC) over geological timescales.

Abstract:
The mineralisation which occurs within the Central Wales Orefield (CWO) is of historical importance, as the area was once one of the major producers of silver in the United Kingdom. In comparison to the other ore districts situated in the British Isles however, surprisingly little research has been undertaken in the CWO in recent years. This thesis redresses this issue by examining, in conjunction with Pb isotope analysis, the geochemical variation in three sulphide minerals (galena, sphalerite and chalcopyrite), collected from six mineralised lodes located in the Afon Clarach catchment; a sma

Abstract:
Arctic ground squirrels (Urocitellus parryii plesius) of the southwest Yukon Territory occupy three distinct habitat types: boreal forest, low elevation meadows and alpine areas. Populations in boreal forest habitat have been shown to be synchronous with the 10-year snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus) cycle in the region due to shared predators. Relatively little is known about arctic ground squirrel populations occupying low altitude meadow and alpine meadow habitat types. Since 2000, populations in the boreal forest have remained low and in some locations have been extirpated. The first objec

Abstract:
Increasing human populations and activities in coastal areas have led to high nutrient loading and estuarine ecosystem decline. Natural hydrological patterns in South Florida have been drastically altered by changes in water management and land use practices. As a result Florida Bay has experienced a series of negative ecosystem effects including hypersalinity events, degradation of water quality, and harmful algal blooms and declines in upper trophic level populations. To remediate ecosystem decline in Florida's coastal ecosystems, the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan proposes to re

Abstract:
De nos jours, la compréhension des transferts de particules sédimentaires (Source to Sink) est un enjeu clef des géosciences. Un des challenges dans ce domaine est la caractérisation de l’origine et des processus de transfert des particules. L’utilisation de la morphométrie (la mesure de la forme d’une particule) est une méthodologie pouvant apporter des réponses à ces questions.La morphométrie des particules est utilisée en sédimentologie pour identifier les différents stocks sédimentaires, les transferts et les mécanismes de sédimentation. Actuellement, beaucoup d’analyses morphométriques so
