Several large semi-enclosed seas and coastal bodies have formed seasonal hypoxic water masses over large areas. The dominant cause for such formations is believed to be the increasing inflow of nutrients from watersheds and urban areas into estuaries and coastal waters. Several studies have reported hypoxic events in the Pearl River estuary (PRE). However, hypoxia events appear to be episodic, which are neither seasonal nor estuary-wide. The reasons for such occurrences are not understood fully. The objectives of this study are to use 24-year time series data obtained during 1988-2011 to analyze the long-term variability in dissolved oxygen (DO) in summer over the entire estuary from urban areas to estuarine coastal waters and examine regulating factors for the occurrences of hypoxia. The results showed that various regulating factors were responsible for the variability of DO in different regions of the PRE. DO decreased in the urban reach, upstream and main estuarine zones of the PRE from about 2000. It was hypoxic (DO less then 2.0 mg L-1) in the urban reach zone and periodic low DO (DO less then 3.5 mg L-1) and episodic hypoxic in the upstream zone after 2000, mainly influenced by the increasing sewage discharge. The main estuarine zone experienced episodic low DO and sporadic hypoxia after 2000. The ecosystem buffering capacity was characterized by turbidity, well vertical mixing and short residence time which diluted the pressure for the formation of hypoxia. The eastern shelf appeared to be more vulnerable to hypoxia because of its deeper topography, plume front position, and stratification of the water column compared with the western shelf. Its bottom waters experienced seasonal low DO but seldom hypoxia. In comparison, low DO rarely occurred in the western shelf because of its shallow topography and short residence time. In brief, 24-year series data captured from 1988 to 2011 showed a lack of seasonal and estuary-wide hypoxia in the PRE. Turkey, with her two important straits, is geographically in the middle of one of the major transportation routes and will continue to face risks the oil tankers pose in those sensitive areas. This paper revisits the site of an oil tanker accident that occurred at the northern entrance of the Istanbul Strait in 1994. The aim of the study was to simulate the same accident in PISCES-II Simulator to compare the response actions of the time with the present capabilities. Effort is also made to understand how the negative impacts of an oil spill accident can be lessened. Therefore, the study is planned to set to cover two separate response scenarios for the identical oil spill incident, actually simulating the 1994 M/T Nassica accident. The results showed that oil pollution response in places with strong currents like Istanbul Strait needs special care to sea conditions as well as related assets. To understand the impact of hydrodynamics on pollutant transport in Laizhou Bay, China, we conducted numerical simulations using Mike 21. The model was calibrated with good agreements to field monitoring data at various monitoring stations. The simulation results show a clockwise and an anti-clockwise tidally-induced residual circulation in the western and eastern bay, respectively. Historical COD monitoring data also indicate two rings of high COD concentration in the same regions of the bay. This suggests that the hydrodynamics of tidal and residual currents is the main cause of the ring-shaped high COD concentration field in the bay. Pollutant inputs from inland rivers are also important for the COD distribution, making the near-shore side of the COD ring higher than the offshore side. Regions with higher retention time in the bay are usually associated with higher COD concentrations. This study is useful in understanding the mechanism of pollutant spatial distribution and subsequent pollution control in a sea bay. A fluorescence probe was delicately designed for the detection of malachite green (MG) in water and fish samples. Through the electrostatic self-assembly of CdTe QDs on the surface of polystyrene (PS) microspheres, the fluorescence signal was amplified. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/azd9291.html After grafting molecularly imprinted film, the fluorescence probe of MIP@PS@CdTe was fabricated and applied to the detection of MG based on fluorescence quenching. The linear range of MG detection was 0.01-20 μmol L-1, and the detection limit was 4.7 nmol L-1 (3σ, n = 9) which was much lower than those of the previous reports. The recoveries of MG in aquaculture water and fish samples ranging from 87.6% to 105.4% illustrated that the detection by MIP@PS@CdTe probe was accurate and reliable. The distribution of 77 antibiotics in the coastal water and sediment from 3 bays of the East China Sea was investigated. There were 43 and 25 antibiotics detected with total concentrations of 30.8-2106.1 ng/L and 2.2-99.9 ng/g in water and sediment, respectively. Approximately 83.0% and 85.4% of the individual antibiotic concentrations were lower than 5.0 ng/L in water and 1.0 ng/g in sediment. Clindamycin (1.2-1507.9 ng/L, mean 183.8 ng/L) and erythromycin (ND-45.2 ng/g, mean 3.4 ng/g) were the most abundant in water and sediment, respectively. Ecological risk assessment revealed that the joint toxicity was enhanced when multiple antibiotics were present simultaneously. A decrease in the total antibiotic concentration and the ecological risk in water was observed from nearshore to offshore. Three antibiotics (sulfamethoxypyridazine, sulfamethoxazole and cinoxacin) were selected to be prioritized based on ecological risks for antibiotics monitoring and management of the coastal water in the East China Sea. Marine genetic resources (MGR) are a new issue in high seas management. Discussion on how to best manage these resources is currently ongoing at the United Nations, within the context of a proposed treaty on the conservation and sustainable use of marine 'Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction' (BBNJ), which is expected to be completed in 2020.But how accurately can states measure the potential economic value of resources that still do not have a clear market application? Developing states in particular already suffer from wealth blindness, where they lack the capacity to properly evaluate the economic value or market potential of their marine resources. This article explores the extent to which wealth blindness forms the backdrop to the current debates over the potential for profitably exploiting marine genetic resources, as well as how this relates to demands for capacity building and technology transfer in the BBNJ treaty negotiation process.
