Journal ArticleDOI
Tidal sands as biogeochemical reactors
Pierre Anschutz,Thomas Smith,Aurélia Mouret,Jonathan Deborde,Stéphane Bujan,Dominique Poirier,Pascal Lecroart +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on analyses of dissolved biogenic compounds of surface seawater and pore waters of Aquitanian coastal beach sediments and quantitatively assess the biogeochemical reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of medium-term exposure to elevated pCO2 levels on the physiological energetics of the mussel Mytilus chilensis
Jorge M. Navarro,Rodrigo Torres,Karin Acuña,Cristian Duarte,Patricio H. Manríquez,Marco A. Lardies,Nelson A. Lagos,Cristian A. Vargas,Victor M. Aguilera +8 more
TL;DR: The results of this study clearly indicate that high pCO(2) levels in the seawater have a negative effect on the health of M. chilensis, and the predicted acidification of seawater associated with global climate change could be harmful to this ecologically and commercially important mussel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abundance of picophytoplankton in the subsurface chlorophyll maximum layer in subtropical and tropical waters
Masayuki Takahashi,T. Hori +1 more
TL;DR: A distinctive chlorophyll maximum was detected around 60-m depth in the western North Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea, and almost 55% of the total chlorophylla in the entire water column was found within 50 m around the subsurface chlorophyLL maximum (SCM) layer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential responses of bacteria, meiofauna and macrofauna in a shelf area (Ligurian Sea, NW Mediterranean): role of food availability
Giancarlo Albertelli,A. Covazzi-Harriague,Roberto Danovaro,Mauro Fabiano,Simonetta Fraschetti,Antonio Pusceddu +5 more
TL;DR: The distribution of meio- and macrofauna along the continental shelf of the oligotrophic Ligurian Sea appears to depend more upon the quality of organic matter than on its quantity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stimulation of phytoplankton production in coastal waters by natural rainfall inputs: nutritional and trophic implications
TL;DR: It appears timely, if not essential, to consider atmospheric nutrient loading in the formulation and implementation of nutrient management strategies aimed at mitigating coastal eutrophication.
