Provedor de dados: Open Marine Archive
Autores: Dehairs, F.A.; Dedeurwaerder, H.; Dejonghe, M.; Decadt, G.; Gillain, G.; Baeyens, W.F.J.; Elskens, I.
During 1980 and 1981 the aerosol burden as well as the wet and dry atmospheric fall-out of Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Fe and Mn to the sea have been studied in the Belgian coastal area. Atmospheric Cu, Zn and Cd are observed to be introduced into the sea mainly by wet fall-out, while Fe, Mn and also Pb have a dry and wet fall-out of similar magnitude. Of these elements, Cu, Zn and Cd have the highest washout factors. Furthermore, for all elements, excepted Mn, discrepancies exist between washout factors above land and sea, with values up to 5 times larger above the sea.On the scale of the North Sea, atmospheric fall-out of Cu, Zn, Pb and Cd exceeds by one order of magnitude the combined input of the rivers Scheldt, Rhine and Meuse, while fall-out of Fe and Mn is of...

Trace metals in the eastern part of the North Sea: 1: Analyses and short-term distributions
Provedor de dados: Open Marine Archive
Autores: Baeyens, W.F.J.; Gillain, G.; Decadt, G.; Elskens, I.
Advanced analysis procedures for dissolved and particulate trace metals in sea water have been developed and tested in international intercalibration exercises. Since these tests gave evidence that reliable data could be produced with such methods, trace metal distributions in the coastal waters of the eastern North Sea were studied.The spatial distributions of most dissolved and particulate trace metals are, at least qualitatively, similar. Their concentrations decrease with distance from the coast and the mouth of the Scheldt estuary ( particulates much stronger than dissolved species). The salinity gradient is similar (but opposite) to the trace metals and turbidity gradients. The five trace metals studied can be subdivided into two groups on the basis...

Determination of methylmercury in biological samples by semiautomated headspace analysis
Provedor de dados: Open Marine Archive
Autores: Decadt, G.; Baeyens, W.F.J.; Bradley, D.; Goeyens, L.
Gas-liquid distribution coefficients of methylmercury halides dissolved in water or benzene have been assessed by using a headspace injection system coupled to a gas chromatograph-microwave-induced plasma system. Vapor concentrations decreased in the following order: CH&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;HgI &gt; CH&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;HgBr &gt; CH&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;HgCl. To transform all methylmercury iodide, iodoacetic acid (IAc) is used as the liberating agent. Methylmercury iodide degradation is prevented by the addition of sodium thiosulfate (0.05 M). The results obtained with internal standard addition are not influenced by other volatile compounds including other mercury compounds. The method has been applied to a series of biological samples. The...

An automated method for the assessment of mercury adsorption rates on particulate suspended matter
Provedor de dados: Open Marine Archive
Autores: Baeyens, W.F.J.; Decadt, G.; Dehairs, F.A.; Goeyens, L.
A continuous filtration system connected to a mercury auto-analyzer has been constructed for obtaining mercury adsorption rates on particulate suspended matter. The capabilities of this device have been demonstrated by carrying out a series of experiments under controlled physicochemical parameter conditions on samples of the Scheldt estuary. Duplicate measurements showed coefficients of variation ranging from 1 to 6 %. Depending on the physico-chemical conditions, the initial adsorption rate per unit of dissolved mercury concentration varied between 1.2 and 8.1 x 10&lt;sup&gt;-2&lt;/sup&gt; mn&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt;.

Estimates of dry and wet deposition and resuspension fluxes of several trace metals in the Southern Bight of the North Sea
Provedor de dados: Open Marine Archive
Autores: Dedeurwaerder, H.L.; Dehairs, F.A.; Decadt, G.; Baeyens, W.F.J.
In this study we have investigated air-sea exchanges in the Belgian coastal area located in the Southern Bight of the North Sea. Since 1980 the tropospheric aerosol contents for the trace elements Cd, Cu, Mn, Pb, Zn and for the reference elements Al , Fe, Na have been monitored on an intermittent basis from a maritime sampling platform (Light-Vessel West-Hinder; position: 51°23.5'N- 2°21.5'E, fig. 1). During 1981 sampling campaigns at sea were paralleled by sampling campaigns on land, in the coastal area (natural reserve De Blankaert, located at 20 Km inland), in order to allow for a better evaluation of the specific source or sink role of the sea. No major source of pollution exists between the maritime and the continental sampling sites. During these...

Dynamic patterns of dissolved nitrogen in the Southern Bight of the North Sea
Provedor de dados: Open Marine Archive
Autores: Baeyens, W.F.J.; Mommaerts, J.-P.; Goeyens, L.; Dehairs, F.A.; Dedeurwaerder, H.; Decadt, G.
Spatial and temporal variations of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) have been assessed in onshore and offshore areas of the Southern Bight on the basis of several years' measurements. They indicate that both the residual flow lines and DIN isoconcentration lines run parallel with the coast except in the vicinity of important freshwater discharge points such as the Scheldt estuary. Evidence was found that the seasonal DIN oscillations are not created through fluctuations in input conditions at the lateral boundaries, despite considerable fluctuations in these inputs which include the English Channel (from 500 tons(t) N day&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt; in June up to approximately 2000 t N day&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt; in February) and also rivers such as the...
