Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining the Effect of Sediment Resuspension from the Activity of Phenoloxidase in Penaeid Shrimp Post LarvaeNapaporn Leadprathom, Pornpimon Teangtarn, Kedsiri Ing-kanorn et al.Problem statement: Regular sediment resuspension or dredging in coastal zones can induce stress in a postlaval penaeid shrimp, which affects immune response. Phenoloxidase is a significant enzyme in the penaeid shrimp’s immune system which, when used as a biomarker, can serve as an early warning sign in ecological systems. The stress response of shrimp postlarvae from sediment reuspension was analyzed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 12 Jun 2012 · 7,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMetals in Sediment Cores from Nine Coastal Lagoons in Central VietnamStefania Romano, Cristian Mugnai, Silvia Giuliani et al.Problem statement: After being dramatically hit by war events, Vietnam is presently experiencing a huge economical and social development. However, very few data, relative to pollution levels and trends, are available for the correct management of critical areas such as coastal lagoons, where many economical activities are linked to high value environmental features. Approach: A set of sediment cores from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 9 Mar 2012 · 8,592 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGlobal Warming at the East Coast Zone of Peninsular MalaysiaHayrol Azril Mohamed Shaffril, Bahaman Abu Samah, Jeffrey Lawrence D'Silva, Jegak UliProblem statement: Global Warming is not a new phenomenon and it is already been felt by people all around the world. Not only the people affected by the global warming, but also our sea. There are a lot of potential threats that can be caused by global warming on the sea such as rise of sea level, changes in waves … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 8,708 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Bathymetry Database for Coastal AreasWorachat Wannawong, Prungchan Wongwises, Usa W. HumphriesProblem statement: A database containing gridded bathymetries with different coverages and resolutions has been established. Approach: The interpolation techniques of the gridded bathymetries have been developed to define the spherical, rectangular and curvilinear coordinate grid systems. Results: Subsequently, merging of the bathymetry results has also been developed to define the optimal bathymetry. Furthermore, the bathymetries were established in order to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,227 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Crude Oil and Spent Oil on Clarias garipinus: A Typical Marine FishA. M. Gbadebo, A. M. Taiwo, O. B. OlaProblem statement: Petroleum hydrocarbon and petroleum residue (i.e., spent oil) remains the foremost pollutants to the fish communities in various aquatic media-ponds, streams, rivers, creeks, coastal and marine environments through indiscriminate disposal of oil contaminated drilling muds, cutting and oil spillages. Approach: Also, the spent oil enters into aquatic media through run-off following unguided disposal. Both the petroleum hydrocarbon and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,470 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModelling the Effect of Salinity on the Multivariate Distribution of a Water Quality IndexDaniela cocchi, Michele scagliariniSalinity is a tracer of water and nutrient flows and is employed in studies on coastal environment to establish the coastal or remote origins of pollutants and nutrients. The present article analyses the effects of salinity on the multivariate distribution of the Trophic Index TRIX. The approach taken is based on a multivariate nested model with salinity as an explicative … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 5,917 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiological Activity of Methyl tert-butyl Ether in Relation to Soil Microorganisms has a Negative Environmental ImpactGholam H.S. BonjarFuel oxygenates are added to gasoline to enhance combustion efficiency of automobiles and reduce air pollution. Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is the most commonly used oxygenate because of its low cost, high-octane level and ease of blending with gasoline. However, due to its water solubility, high mobility and low biodegradability it leaches in soil subsurface at the speed of groundwater. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,665 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Oxidant and Enzyme-Inhibitory Potential of Marine StreptomycesT. Revathy, M. A. Jayasri, K. SuthindhiranMarine actinomycetes are potential source for the discovery of novel compounds and enzymes. Though extensive research on marine actinomycetes is underway globally, the actinomycetes research from Indian marine ecosystem is unexplored and understudied. Hence, the present research is focussed on the screening of bioactive compounds from marine actinomycetes isolated from Indian coastal region. This study is designed to determine the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,242 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpacts of Typhoon on Wave Height at Bangkhuntien ShorelinePrasertsak Ekphisutsuntorn, Prungchan Wongwises, Jiang Zhu, Suphat VongvisessomjaiProblem statement: In this study, the changing of wave height at Bangkhuntien during a passage of typhoon LINDA was simulated by using the Simulating WAves Nearshore Model (SWAN) version 40.41. The study domain covered from 99-101°E longitude and 12-14°N in latitude with resolution of 2.4×2.4 km. The simulation covered 10 days during typhoon LINDA entering into the Upper Gulf of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,475 accessesView PDFCite
