Effect of organic complexation on the behaviour of dissolved Cd, Cu and Zn in the Scheldt estuary
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Baeyens, W.F.J.; Goeyens, L.; Monteny, F.; Elskens, I.
Samples from the Scheldt estuary have been assayed for dissolved Cd, Cu and Zn using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry, either as total (after UV irradiation) or labile concentrations. Under these experimental conditions, labile concentrations ranged between 51-65% of total Cu, 16-66% of total Zn and 53-91 % of total Cd. The metal-organic interactions were assessed by evaluating (a) the distribution coefficient K&lt;sub&gt;d&lt;/sub&gt; for the distribution of the metals between the liquid phase (complexation) and their binding to particulate matter, and (b) the competitive effect exerted by inorganic complexing ligands using a multi-element interaction model. The proportion of organically bound metals (strong and labile) was estimated, in...

General description of the Scheldt estuary
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Baeyens, W.F.J.; Van Eck, B.T.M.; Lambert, C.; Wollast, R.; Goeyens, L.
A general description of the Scheldt estuary, including the hydrology, the sediment transport, the productivity and the biodegradation with respect to their influence on the trace metal behaviour in the Scheldt estuary, is given. The river basin can be divided in several sections according to their morphological, hydrodynamical and sedimentary properties. The zone from km 78 to 55, which corresponds roughly with the salinity zone from 2 to 10 psu, is the zone of high turbidity, high sedimentation and of oxygen depletion, especially in the summer period. That area is called the geochemical filter because the solid/dissolved distribution of the trace metals is controlled by redox, adsorption/desorption, complexation and precipitation/coprecipitation...

d&lt;sup&gt;13&lt;/sup&gt;C of Southern Ocean suspended organic matter during spring and early summer: Regional and temporal variability
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Dehairs, F.A.; Kopczynska, E.; Nielsen, C.; Lancelot, C.; Bakker, D.; Koeve, W.; Goeyens, L.
Observations are presented for stable carbon isotope abundance (&amp;#x3b4;&lt;sup&gt;13&lt;/sup&gt;C) and organic carbon and nitrogen content of suspended organic matter from the Southern Ocean (Circumpolar Current and Polar Front) during spring and early summer. The Polar Front Zone was characterized by elevated plankton biomasses and phytoplankton activity, which also increased significantly over the one-month investigation period. From the beginning of the phytoplankton bloom &amp;#x3b4;&lt;sup&gt;13&lt;/sup&gt;C values of suspended organic matter in the Polar Front were high, exceeding values predicted from the relationship with CO&lt;sub&gt;2(aq)&lt;/sub&gt; concentration observed in other areas of the Southern Ocean. Later in the season...

Biogeochemical behaviour of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn in the Scheldt estuary during the period 1981-1983
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Baeyens, W.F.J.; Elskens, M.; Gillain, G.; Goeyens, L.
Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb have been analysed in suspended matter and water samples from the Scheldt estuary, collected during five cruises between May 1982 and May 1983. In order to evaluate the overall metal behaviour in the estuary, continuous longitudinal profiles of the total, the particulate and the dissolved metal concentrations are discussed in relation to various specific physico-chemical parameters. By means of correlation and multi-regression techniques, several estuarine processes could be identified which dominate and/or control the behaviour of the individual trace metals in three distinct areas of the Scheldt estuary. The behaviour of the four selected metals was found to show some common features, but is besides this also characterised by many...

On suspended barite and the oxygen minimum in the Southern Ocean
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Dehairs, F.A.; Goeyens, L.; Stroobants, N.; Bernard, P.; Goyet, C.; Poisson, A.; Chesselet, R.
Particulate Ba profiles were measured in the Indian sector of the southern ocean. The largest fraction (&gt;80%) of this barium is present as barite microcrystals. The profiles of total barium are characterized by a subsurface maximum between 200 and 500 m depth in the vicinity of the oxygen minimum. Highest barium values are found just south of the Polar Front, while lowest values occur close to the Antarctic Divergence. Between the divergence and the Polar front a tight inverse relationship is observed between oxygen in the oxygen minimum and barium in the barium maximum. This relationship disappears north of the Polar Front. Since suspended barite is known to be of biological origin, the correlation of barite with oxygen suggests that the observed...

Particulate barium stocks and oxygen consumption in the Southern Ocean mesopelagic water column during spring and early summer
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Dehairs, F.A.; Shopova, D.; Ober, S.; Veth, C.; Goeyens, L.
Particulate barium was analysed in the upper 600 m of the Southern Ocean water column during repeated transects along the 6 degree W meridian in October-November 1992. The transects extended between the northern edge of the Weddell Gyre (57 degree 30'S) in the south to 47 degree S within the Polar Front Zone (PFZ) in the north. From earlier studies, it is known that the largest fraction of Ba in oceanic suspended matter occurs as barite micro-crystals. In the PFZ, an increase in the particulate Ba content in surface waters and at mesopelagic depths can be significant over the investigation period (1 month) and follows the increase of primary production during bloom development. Using an inverse one-dimensional advection-diffusion-consumption model,...

A room temperature procedure for the manual determination of urea in seawater
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Goeyens, L.; Kindermans, N.; Yusuf, M.A.; Elskens, M.
Several earlier studies underpin the important role of dissolved organic matter and more particularly urea in phytoplanktonic nitrogen uptake fluxes. Generally, the determination of urea concentrations relies on the formation of an imidazolone-thiosemicarbizide complex, a complexation which requires very accurate temperature control when carried out at high temperature. It is also possible, however, to obtain reliable results with a room temperature procedure. The measured abundances for both complexation at high temperature (85 degree C, 20 min) and at ambient temperature (22 degree C, 72 h) are closely comparable. Lower values are observed for temperatures &lt;10 degree C though. Moreover, a comparison of both techniques reveals similar precision...

The leading role of ammonium in the nitrogen uptake regime of Southern Ocean marginal ice zones
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Goeyens, L.; Dehairs, F.A.; Tréguer, P.; Bauman, E.M.; Baeyens, W.F.J.
The nitrogen signature of marginal ice zones in the Southern Ocean often departs from the "classical" Antarctic nutrient profiles with high nitrate and low ammonium values in the surface layer. Weddell Sea marginal ice zones e.g. show enhanced nitrate depletions, amounting to similar to 500 mmol N m super(-2). Additionally, ammonium stocks in the upper layer can be up to 7% of the inorganic nitrogen pool. The corresponding nitrogen uptake regime suggests elevated nitrate assimilation during the early phase of the productive season and significantly reduced nitrate assimilation at a later stage. Absolute as well as specific nitrate uptake rates decrease by an order of magnitude when ammonium stocks exceed 1.7% of the total inorganic nitrogen. The...

Improved estimation of f-ratio in natural phytoplankton assemblages
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Elskens, M.; Goeyens, L.; Dehairs, F.A.; Rees, A.; Joint, I.; Baeyens, J.
Statistical properties in non-linear regression models of &lt;i&gt;f&lt;/i&gt;-ratio versus nitrate relationships were investigated using a case study conducted at the European continental margin (Project OMEX). Although the OMEX data fit within the family of empirical models introduced by Platt and Harrison (1985) Nature 318, 55&amp;#x2013;58), it is shown that the discrepancy between experimental and fitted values is larger than expected, assuming that the data are accurate. Since the ambient ammonium concentration plays a leading role in regulating new production, the present analysis was extended to include explicitly the effect of ammonium on &lt;i&gt;f&lt;/i&gt;-ratio versus nitrate plots. Experimental results based on controlled ammonium additions...

The biogeochemical behaviour of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn in the Scheldt estuary: results of the 1995 surveys
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Baeyens, W.F.J.; Parmentier, K.; Goeyens, L.; Ducastel, G.; De Gieter, M.; Leermakers, M.
Cd, Cu, Zn and Pb concentrations in both dissolved and particulate phase were assessed during 1995. Data Quality Assurance was an integral part of this study and involved all major steps of the analysis procedure such as sampling, sample handling, preconcentration and determination. Desorption and redox processes clearly control the dissolved Cu and Cd profiles. Mobilisation of dissolved Zn is small and essentially restricted to the low salinity area and the late spring survey. Dissolved Pb shows the clearest dilution pattern. The parameters representative of these processes (dissolved oxygen and salinity) also correlate very well with the particulate metal profiles. In addition, the plankton activity (expressed by the chlorophyll-&lt;i&gt;a&lt;/i&gt;...

Phytoplankton nitrogen nutrition in the western Indian Ocean: Ecophysiological adaptations of neritic and oceanic assemblages to ammonium supply
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Mengesha, S.; Dehairs, F.A.; Elskens, M.; Goeyens, L.
The nitrogen nutrition of the phytoplankton community in the neritic and oceanic waters of the western Indian Ocean was investigated during the south-east monsoon (June-July) and intermonsoon periods (November-December). The region is very oligotrophic, characterized by very low nutrient concentrations (surface NO sub(3)&lt;0.5 µM), low phytoplankton biomass (PON similar to 0.85 µmoll super(- 1)) and predominance of regenerated production (maximum f -ratio &lt;0.47). Ammonium was the major nitrogen substrate during the two seasons, supplying 53-99% of the phytoplankton's nitrogen requirement. Nevertheless, both the uptake of nitrate and its relative contribution to total nitrogen removal (f -ratio) were significantly higher during the intermonsoon period...

Determination of methylmercury in biological samples by semiautomated headspace analysis
Provedor de dados: 27
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...

Primary production and nutrient fluxes in the Gulf of Biscay
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Elskens, M.; Chou, L.; Dauby, P.; Frankignoulle, M.; Goeyens, L.; Loijens, M.; Wollast, R.
Since the role of continental shelves and coastal areas in the global biochemical carbon are nowadays a leading concern in oceanographic research programmes, this study aims to define the specific effect of nutrients on the onset and development of the phytoplankton bloom at the ocean margins. Comparison experiments of the carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus assimilation rates were carried out from 1989 to 1991 in the English Channel and the Gulf of Biscay. New production were obtained from the traditional approach using &lt;i&gt;f&lt;/i&gt;-ratio values, i.e. the ratios of directly measured nitrate to carbon uptakes and/or the ratios of nitrate to nitrate plus ammonium uptakes. Values of &lt;i&gt;f&lt;/i&gt; agree well on the shelf, slope and deep basin...

Nitrogen uptake regime and phytoplankton community structure in the Atlantic and Indian sectors of the Southern Ocean
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Semeneh, M.; Dehairs, F.A.; Elskens, M.; Baumann, M.E.M.; Kopczynska, E.E.; Lancelot, C.; Goeyens, L.
Phytoplankton nitrogen uptake is studied in relation to the biomass and structure of phytoplankton community in the Atlantic and Indian sectors of the Southern Ocean. Two scenarios of seasonal evolution of uptake regime and phytoplankton community structure are described. The first scenario includes the Marginal Ice Zone areas of the Weddell Sea and adjacent areas where a predominantly nitrate based, diatom dominated assemblage, thriving in a stable water column at the beginning of the season was transformed into a mainly ammonium based, flagellate dominated assemblage, towards the end of the season. The change in phytoplankton community structure was caused by selective grazing by large grazers and reduced stability of the water column and the shift in...

An automated method for the assessment of mercury adsorption rates on particulate suspended matter
Provedor de dados: 27
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;.

Barite formation in the Southern Ocean water column
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Stroobants, N.; Dehairs, F.A.; Goeyens, L.; Vanderheijden, N.; Van Grieken, R.
The intensity of past biological activity can be correlated with the occurrence of suspended and sedimented barite (BaSO&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt;). To date, there is a lack of information on the processes controlling the production of pelagic barite. During the EPOS-2 cruise (November-December 1988), situated in the Scotia Sea-Weddell Sea Confluence, suspended water samples were taken for analysis of total Ba by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and for scanning electron microscopy-electron microprobe (SEM-EMP).The vertical profiles of particulate barium generally show a Ba maximum between 200 and 500 m. SEM-EMP investigation on Scotia-Weddell Sea Confluence profiles provide a possible explanation for the origin of this...

Dynamic patterns of dissolved nitrogen in the Southern Bight of the North Sea
Provedor de dados: 27
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...
