A variety of microplastic sampling instrumentation is currently used for water pollution studies. Plankton net-based approaches have been the most adopted techniques for water column and surface sampling. When applied to microplastics (MP) in the lower µ...

To yield environmental benefits, fine sediments with ~10% organic matter, termed muck, were dredged from a tributary to the Indian River Lagoon. Key changes were documented by sampling amphipods, sediments, and the water column near the bottom before dre...

Gas hydrate provinces occur in two sedimentary basins along Brazil?s continental margin: (1) The Rio Grande Cone in the southeast, and (2) the Amazon deep-sea fan in the equatorial region. The occurrence of gas hydrates in these depocenters was first det...

Column integrated algal biomass provides a robust indicator for eutrophication evaluation because it considers the vertical variability of phytoplankton. However, most remote sensing-based inversion algorithms of column algal biomass assume a homogenous ...

Heavy rainfall events were previously reported to bring large amounts of microorganisms in surface water, including viruses. However, little information is available on the origin and transport of viral particles in water during such rain events. In this...

Three experiments were conducted in the Belgian part of the North Sea to investigate short-term variation in seafloor backscatter strength (BS) obtained with multibeam echosounders (MBES). Measurements were acquired on predominantly gravelly (offshore) a...

In this study, we examined for the first time the spatio-temporal distribution of trace metal (TM) contaminants (Zn, Cd, Pb, Cu, Ni and Co) in the seawater column of Pula Bay. The bay has been known for decades as one of the most industrialized regions o...

Different types and systems to discriminate plankton samples at different strata in the water column have been developed in recent decades. For sampling at sufficient depth, opening and closing zooplankton multinets are ideal because there is no contamin...
