Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleVisible Derivative Spectroscopic Monitoring of the Old Woman Creek National Estuary During a Historically Dry Year and a Wet YearLorita Nivanthi Mihindukulasooriya, Brenna Shae Mabry, Madison Slocum, Joseph Daniel OrtizVisible derivative spectroscopy was used to interpret the sediment and phytoplankton assemblages within the old woman creek natural estuarine reserve during the summers of 2016 and 2017. A Varimax-rotated Principal Component Analysis (VPCA) of reflectance data collected from four sampling sites in 2016 identified three Varimax-rotated Principal Components (VPCs): Diatom + Illite (2016-VPC 1), Dinoflagellate Algae + Cyanobacteria + Cryptophytes … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 6 · 11 Jul 2024 · 4,669 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBIOCHEMICAL, NUTRIENT AND INHIBITORY CHARACTERISTICS OF STREPTOMYCES CULTURED FROM A HYPERSALINE ESTUARY, THE LAGUNA MADRE (TEXAS)Luis E. Espinoza, Anita L. Davelos Baines, Kristine L. LoweStreptomyces are common soil bacteria that produce secondary metabolites, including several antibiotics; however, the characteristics of marine Streptomyces are largely unknown. Sediment samples were taken from 3 sites in the Laguna Madre to isolate marine Streptomyces. Sediment was diluted, spread onto synthetic seawater media to estimate the total bacterial density of the samples and spread onto starch casein agar to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 7 Feb 2013 · 7,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSpecies Assemblages and Distribution of Dinoflagellate Cysts from three Estuaries Sediment’s of Makassar Strait, Eastern IndonesiaNita Rukminasari, Akbar TahirMakassar Strait encompasses high fisheries resources and high biodiversity and primary productivity. Algae blooms often occur in these areas, but there is a lack of studies that have been carried out on HABs in these locations specifically determining the collection and abundance of dinocyst. The study aimed to determine species assemblages of dinoflagellate cysts from three estuaries of Makassar Strait. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 8 May 2021 · 6,325 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUse of 137Cs Activity to Investigate Sediment Movement and Transport Modeling in River Coastal EnvironmentM. E. Toriman, Muhamad Barzani Gasim, Zulkifli Yusop et al.Conflicts between human and environment always triggered to sedimentation and erosion problems within the coastal areas, Therefore understanding sediment transport processes in a river estuary and coastal waters was important when studying sediment transport and mobility within the river coastal environment. This article aims to investigate the sediment transport and mobility of the Kemaman River estuary, Terengganu Malaysia. In this … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 22 Jun 2012 · 7,764 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessment of Suspended Sediments Concentration in Surface Waters, Using Modis ImagesMobasheri Mohammad RezaRemote sensing from air-borne and space-borne sensors have proved to be a useful method for Suspended Sediment Concentration (SSC) estimation as it provides an instantaneous and synoptic view of suspended sediments that would otherwise be unavailable. The reason for the success of remote sensing in such surveys is the strong positive relationship that exists between SSC and remotely sensed water … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,006 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRelationships between Heavy Metal Concentrations in the American Oyster (Crassostrea virginica) and Metal Levels in the Water Column and Sediment in Apalachicola Bay, FloridaDennis A. Apeti, Larry Robinson, Elijah JohnsonThis study aims to assess baseline concentrations of heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb and Zn) in the oyster soft tissue as they relate to concentrations in the water column (particulate phase) and sediment in Apalachicola Bay. In order to conduct these assessments, a total of 360 samples, collected in two seasons (winter and summer) and were analyzed using atomic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,344 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractToxicity of Dinoflagellate (Gonyaulax verior) from Makassar Strait Waters on Medaka Fish (Oryzias javanicus) Embryo DevelopmentNita Rukminasari, Khusnul Yaqin, Jamaluddin Fitrah AlamThis study investigates the toxic effects of the dinoflagellate Gonyaulax verior on the embryonic development of medaka fish (Oryzias javanicus) sourced from four distinct aquatic environments in the Makassar Strait. Given the increasing presence of harmful algal blooms in marine ecosystems, understanding the impact of toxic dinoflagellates is crucial for assessing risks to fish populations. Embryos were exposed to varying … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 20 Nov 2025 · 2,123 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Approach to Identify Gobioid Fishes, “Nike” and “Hundala” (Local Name), from Gorontalo Waters, IndonesiaAbdul Hafidz Olii, Femy M. Sahami, Sri Nuryatin Hamzah, Nuralim PasisingiData of the species scientific name is required to study biodiversity and conservation of local fish species. Nike and hundala are the local names for fish found in Gorontalo whose scientific names are unknown and recognized by local people as two different species of fish. This study aims to identify the genetic and species of nike and hundala fish. Nike … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2019 · 8,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudies on the Seasonal Changes in Antioxidant Enzymes Activity on Differently, Polluted Areas along the Bay of Bengal Employing Perna viridis as an Animal ModelC. Amutha, P. SubramanianAntioxidants are the innate or acquired molecules capable of slowing down or preventing the oxidative damage (damage due to reactive oxygen species) that caused by free radicals. The antioxidant enzyme activity in response to season as well as hydrocarbon pollution was attempted. Rayapuram fishing harbor of Chennai (Station-1) is highly oil contaminated with oil sleeks on the surface.

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 · 7,089 accessesView PDFCite
