Journal ArticleDOI
Transport of sludge-derived organic pollutants to deep-sea sediments at deep water dump site 106
TL;DR: Findings clearly indicate that organic pollutants derived from dumped sludge are transported through the water column and have accumulated on the deep-sea floor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal concentrations in surface sediments of boston harbor—Changes with time
TL;DR: In this paper, the concentrations of metals in surface sediments of Boston Harbor have decreased during the period 1977-1993, which is supported by analysis of surface sediment collected at monitoring stations in the outer harbor between 1977 and 1993; and historical data from a contaminated-sediment database.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insights on geochemical cycling of U, Re and Mo from seasonal sampling in Boston Harbor, Massachusetts, USA
Jennifer L. Morford,William R. Martin,Linda H. Kalnejais,Roger Francois,Michael H. Bothner,Ida-Maja Karle +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the removal of redox-sensitive metals from continental margin sediments underlying oxic bottom water is investigated, and it is shown that removing redox sensitive metals from seafloor sediments plays a key role in marine budgets of these metals.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use (and misuse) of sediment traps in coral reef environments: theory, observations, and suggested protocols
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the state-of-the-art of sediment trap dynamics in shallow-water environ- ments that characterize coral reefs is presented, followed by the first synthesis of near-bed sediment trap data collected with concurrent hydrodynamic information in coral reef environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rate of mercury loss from contaminated estuarine sediments
TL;DR: The concentration of mercury in contaminated estuarine sediments of Bellingham Bay, Washington was found to decrease with a half-time of about 1.3 yr after the primary anthropogenic source of mercury was removed.
