The spatial variation of MeHg production, bioaccumulation, and biomagnification in marine
food webs is poorly characterized but critical to understanding the links between sources …

For more than a decade I have taught a graduate-level course in marine sediment
geochemistry that covers many of the topics discussed in this book. The goal now is to …

Hypoxia conditions are increasing throughout the world, influencing biogeochemical cycles
of elements and marine life. Hypoxia results from complex interactions between physical …

The present study investigates the interaction between microbial growth and activity and the
redox dynamics in natural porous media. The impact the transport regime has on this …

Sustainable management of water resources is quickly increasing in importance on a global
scale. An important piece of the puzzle is the characterization of marine water and …

From existing databases, we compiled and evaluated 604 total mercury (Hg) levels in the
eggs and blood of 17 species of marine foraging birds from 35 Gulf of Maine islands to …

Pore‐water solute transport processes acting in addition to molecular diffusion affect
sediment biogeochemistry and benthic exchange fluxes. Given the relatively few direct …

Profiles of oxygen and nitrate were measured with microsensors in sediment surrounding
burrow structures of the polychaete Nereis diversicolor in a shallow mudflat in Limfjorden …

Muddy carbonate deposits near the Dry Tortugas, Florida, are characterized by high organic
carbon remineralization rates. However, approximately half of the total sedimentary organic …

Research concerning the fate and biogeochemical cycling of mercury (Hg) within coastal
ecosystems has suggested that microbially mediated diagenetic processes control Hg …
