TL;DR: The concentration and distribution pattern of 226Ra in sediment can be used to trace the radiological impact of the non-nuclear industries on the Red Sea coast and the relationship between 226Ra/228Ra activity ratio and sample locations along the coastal shoreline indicates the increase of this ratio in the direction of the Shuqeir in the north and Safaga in the south.

TL;DR: The adaptation of the microalgae C. vulgaris in textile waste effluent (THE AUTHORS) and the study of the best dilution of the THEY for maximum biomass production and for the removal of colour and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) by this microalga were addressed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors point out that the salinity field of the estuaries that are located on the coasts of Indian subcontinent and come under the influence of the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) is never in a steady state.
Abstract: The theories and classification schemes commonly used for understanding estuarine dynamics often refer to a steady state of the estuary in which the salinity field is time-independent. In this state salinity-ingress into the estuary due to different process (diffusion, gravity current formation, impact of tidal asymmetries, etc.) is balanced by salinity-egress induced by runoff. Here we point out that the salinity field of the estuaries that are located on the coasts of the Indian subcontinent and come under the influence of the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) is never in a steady state. We refer to such estuaries as “monsoonal estuaries”, an example of which is the Mandovi estuary located on the west coast of India. We describe the annual cycle of the salinity field in this estuary and conclude that the essential unsteadiness of the salinity field arises from two features of the runoff into it. First, most of the runoff occurs as a series of episodes of highs and lulls spread over about 4 months of the wet summer monsoon. Second, the total runoff is large, well over an order of magnitude larger than the estuarine volume. We define two parameters to represent these two features, and show that they can be used to distinguish the monsoonal estuaries from others.

TL;DR: The abundance, composition and sources of marine litter were determined on beaches located in the seven countries of the Adriatic-Ionian macroregion, namely Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Greece, Italy, Montenegro and Slovenia, with the majority of litter items made of artificial/anthropogenic polymer materials accounting for 91.1% of all litter.
