Surface seawater was collected using a high-volume water pump in Malaysian waters during the first Prime Scientific Sailing Expedition in 2009 to obtain activity levels of lead-210 (Pb-210) and polonium-210 (Po-210). The Pb-210 activity in surfa[...]

Estuarine detritus-based food webs typically rely on diverse sources and timing of organic matter (OM) delivery. Access to detritus requires adequate hydraulic connectivity for consumer migration into productive locations and the transfer of all[...]

Ocean acidification (OA) has been shown to affect significantly the net calcification process and growth rate of many marine calcifying organisms. Recent studies have shown that the responses of these organisms to OA can vary significantly among[...]

Salt marshes can experience a significant land loss through erosion and retreat of their perimeter edges. Rates of shoreline change between 1957 and 2007 were determined for four salt marshes in a Virginia coastal bay using aerial photographs an[...]

In the present study, we test whether large-scale patterns of estuarine nematodes are predicted by the "everything is everywhere" (EiE) hypothesis or by the moderate endemicity hypothesis (MEH). Specifically, we tested whether nematode genus ric[...]

Eutrophic estuaries are increasingly common features along global coastlines and are typically prone to micro- and macroalgal blooms. Yet, studies concurrently assessing the factors controlling these distinct algal populations have been rare. Du[...]

The relative importance of different organic matter sources to macrobenthic consumers was investigated at two vegetational habitats (Phragmites australis and Suaeda japonica) and at a bare intertidal flat in Suncheon Bay in May and August 2010, [...]

Coastal dunes are highly vulnerable to disturbances. We characterized changes in the plant distribution, soil properties, and topology of a coastal dune field during the monsoon period. We selected a 600 x 300 m rectangular area of Dadaepo in th[...]
