Sensitivity of the Estuarine-shelf Exchange in Mississippi Coastal Waters to River Diversions and Linkage Pathway Bathymetry: A Modeling Study
… performance to simulate water level and salinity regimes dynamics in the western MS Sound. The atmospheric event of Hurricane Barry is also apparent to influence the exchange flow in MS Sound and adjacent waters. Finally, the impact of BCS and deepening and widening of the channel …

Space-time variability of soil salinity in irrigated vineyards of South Africa
… farming activities. Therefore the management of salinity in the landscape, which includes measuring, mapping and monitoring of its behaviour on a regional scale, is the subject of this investigation. Four sites were actively investigated in this study. These are the Robertson experimental farm, …

Long-term changes in a small, urban estuary
… changes in biodiversity, altered flow and salinity regimes; causing a marked deterioration in water quality and a frightening increase in non-indigenous species introductions. Several studies have been undertaken at the Diep River estuary, however, they are out-dated and many changes have …

ECOLOGY OF GRACILARIA TIKVAHIAE MCLACHLAN (GIGARTINALES, RHODOPHYTA) IN THE GREAT BAY ESTUARY, NEW HAMPSHIRE
… tikvahiae to several irradiance, temperature and salinity regimes were determined.</p><p>Gracilaria tikvahiae plants from the Great Bay Estuary were vegetative throughout most of the year. However, discrete maxima of tetrasporic and spermatangial plants occurred during June-July and for …

Hydrological and ecological observations along the eastern Beaufort Sea coast of Alaska
… in situ measurements of temperature and salinity revealed that lagoons possess unique regimes that vary seasonally and reflect unique hydrologic and geomorphic characteristics. H2O-δ18O and salinity measurements revealed that meteoric water is the dominant source of low-salinity water in …

Influence of Soil Microorganisms on Plant Growth and Fitness
… areas of the southwest US under varied water and salinity regimes. AMF affected only one plant species with regard to root biomass and root:shoot ratio. Infection rates of inoculated plants varied from 0-61% and were limited by high salinity. We also found that salinity and water have strong …

Environmental Change Impacts on Marine Calcifiers: Spatial and Temporal Biomineralisation Patterns in Mytilid Bivalves
… factors to shell morphology. I found salinity had the strongest effect on the latitudinal patterns of Mytilus shape. Temperature and food supply, however, were the main predictor of mussel shape heterogeneity. My results suggest the potential of shell shape plasticity in Mytilus as a …
