| The effect of a sewage plume on the biology, optical characteristics, and particle size distributions of coastal waters was evaluated around the Sand Island, Hawaii, outfall diffuser. In situ physical and biooptical data and Niskin bottle samples were collected during a 1-week cruise from September 25 to October 1, 1994. One or two layers affected by sewage could be distinguished in the water column: recently discharged (''new'') sewage plume waters and ''old'' plume waters. In conditions characterized by high Froude number the distribution of chlorophyll fluorescence in new plume waters was the same as for ambient waters, while for low Froude number, chlorophyll fluorescence increased within the plume, demonstrating the importance of physical forcing on... |
