Journal ArticleDOI
Are harmful algal blooms becoming the greatest inland water quality threat to public health and aquatic ecosystems
Bryan W. Brooks,James M. Lazorchak,Meredith D.A. Howard,Mari Vaughn V. Johnson,Steve L. Morton,Dawn A.K. Perkins,Euan D. Reavie,Geoffrey I. Scott,Stephanie A. Smith,Jeffery A. Steevens +9 more
TL;DR: Environmental toxicology, environmental chemistry, and risk-assessment expertise must interface with ecologists, engineers, and public health practitioners to engage the complexities of HAB assessment and management, to address the forcing factors for HAB formation, and to reduce the threats posed to inland surface water quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linkages between tidal creek ecosystems and the landscape and demographic attributes of their watersheds
A. Frederick Holland,Denise Sanger,Christopher P Gawle,Scott Lerberg,Marielis Sexto Santiago,George H.M. Riekerk,Lynn E Zimmerman,Geoffrey I. Scott +7 more
TL;DR: A conceptual model was developed and used to identify the linkages among watershed-scale stressors, physical and chemical exposures, and biological responses of tidal creeks to human development at the watershed scale and provides a visual representation of the manner in which human population growth is linked to changes in the physiochemical environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
The determination and use of condition index of oysters
TL;DR: Oyster condition measures should be standardized through use of Hopkins' formula: Condition Index = (dry meat weight in g) (100)/(internal cavity volume in cm3).
Journal ArticleDOI
Using geographic information systems and regression analysis to evaluate relationships between land use and fecal coliform bacterial pollution
TL;DR: The results of the regression analyses indicate that proximity to areas with septic tanks, rainfall runoff from urbanized areas are important predictors of fecal coliform densities in the estuary, and ground saturation effects may be an important part of feces deposition in winter months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Health impacts of environmental contamination of micro- and nanoplastics: a review.
Baorong Jiang,Baorong Jiang,Alexandra E. Kauffman,Lei Li,Wayne E. McFee,Bo Cai,John E. Weinstein,Jamie R. Lead,Saurabh Chatterjee,Geoffrey I. Scott,Shuo Xiao,Shuo Xiao +11 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that more studies are necessary to provide a comprehensive understanding of MNP pollution hazards and also provide a basis for the subsequent pollution management and control.
