DOI: 10.1007/s12524-020-01153-0
Abstract: To sustain a healthy ecosystem, continuous monitoring of the water quality is vital. Ocean colour remote sensing is an important tool to carry out such studies. Thus, chlorophyll-a (Chl-a), chromophoric dissolved organic matter (aCDOM440), turbidity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2019.06.042
Abstract: Given the implications of microplastics contamination in aquatic ecosystems and information scarcity about microplastic abundances in estuarine sediments, this study aimed to quantify and describe the microplastics in the sublittoral sediments from Guanabara Bay. Sediment… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2020.111866
Abstract: Microplastics receive global attention due to its strong presence in marine and freshwater organisms. Yet, there are few studies on estuarine organisms. This baseline study evaluates the abundance and distribution of microplastics in the gastropods… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2022.113623
Abstract: Plastic bags are among the most discarded waste items as they are generally only used once and are often improperly eliminated and transported by rivers and estuaries to the ocean. We developed an experimental design… read more here.

Dissolved inorganic nitrogen in a tropical estuary in Malaysia: transport and transformation
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Biogeosciences"
DOI: 10.5194/bg-16-2821-2019
Abstract: Abstract. Dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN), including nitrate, nitrite and ammonium, frequently acts as the limitation for primary productivity. Our study focused on the transport and transformation of DIN in a tropical estuary, i.e., the Rajang… read more here.
