Workflow Growth of the tropical scallop, Euvola (Pe... (1)

Thumb
We compared the growth of the scallop Euuolu (Pecten) ziczuc (L.) in three situations whichpotentially could be used for commercial culture, in cages maintained in suspension, in cages on thebottom and in cages partly buried in a sediment bottom. The latter permitted the scallops to burythemselves as in their natural habitat. Throughout the 7-month study, growth, as measured by shelllength and muscle mass, was by far superior for scallops in the partly buried cages. Possible explanationsfor t...

Thumb
The concentrations of heavy metals Co, Cr, Pb and Zn in the bioavailable fraction in surface sediments of marine-coastal region of the city of Cumana, Venezuela, were studied during periods of drought and rain, in 17 sampling stations located along the shoreline. Significant differences between the two periods of sampling were detected for chromium and lead concentrations, reaching the highest values during the rainy season. For the rest of the metals studied a similar behavior was found for ...

210-Pb activity is an useful technique in environmental investigation, todetermine sediments accumulation rates, geochronology, and to study metals.Its activity decline exponentially with depth, and is inversely proportional to thesedimentation rate at non-impacted ecosystem. Dating of sediments, combinedwith chemical profile, allow the study of the impact events in coastal zones.In the present study, we have investigated the history of metals concentrationsand sedimentation rates of recent s...

The hydrochemical, physical-chemical, and biological dynamics were studied in the eastern waters of the gulf ofCariaco, where wind and precipitation patterns govern these processes to a significant degree. Average monthly values forboth surface and bottom waters were respectively as follows: temperature: 25.69 °C each; salinity: 35.41 and 35.75 units;density anomaly (ó-t): 23.43 and 23.84 kg/m3; oxygen concentration: 184.49 and 178.38 mmol/kg; pH: 7.98 and 7.94;nitrates: 3.18 and 4...

En el presente trabajo se analizó la concentración de Cu, Cd, Pb y Hg en lossedimentos superficiales del estero Santa Rosa, Provincia de El Oro, Ecuador.Las concentraciones de estos elementos fueron muy elevadas para la mayoría delas muestras analizadas en todos los puntos de muestreo seleccionados. Sudistribución no fue homogénea, ni presentó un patrón geográfico marcadamentedefinido, pudiéndose encontrar altos niveles distribuid...

The content of Fe, Mn, Cu, Cr, Ni, Zn, Cd and Pb in muscle tissuesof fish and crustaceans from the Unare lagoon (Lagunade Unare) in the state of Anzoátegui, Venezuela, was analyzedby flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry. The levels of thesemetals present in suspended material of the water and in sedimentswere also determined in order to detect possible impacton the ecosystem. The mean concentrations in the water werelow (0.104-0.53 μmol/L Fe; 0.004-0.06 μmol/L Mn; 0.002-0.028μ...

A set of measurements of sea surface currents obtained by the Instituto Oceanográfico deVenezuela in Bergantín Bay during various months in 1989 are re-analysed with new approaches.In particular the source of the current records is described and their likely connectionwith forcing agents is analysed. The following results are found. 1) Contrary to the longstandingbelief that Bergantín Bay is the main source of pollution of Pozuelos Bay (owing to theoil related activities ...

This paper reports on the speciation of Fe, Mn, Ni, and Pb in the matter suspended in the superficial waters ofthe low basin and the surface trapped plume of the Manzanares river, in Cumaná, state of Sucre, Venezuela, by studyingsediment and water samples taken at 22 stations deployed throughout this area of influence between July 1996 and June 1997.The suspended matter increased during the rainy season (July to November), reaching a maximum value in September, at 1075mg/L. The heavy m...

The hydrographic conditions and sanitary quality of the waters of the coastal region of Playa Grande Baywere studied during May 2003. We set up 21 stations to collect surface and bottom samples and three current meters – anupward-mounted hydroacoustic profiler and two single-point Doppler current sensors that operated for 14 days. Samples werecollected in 5-L Niskin bottles equipped with a lid-closing device operated through a cable. The samples were studied accordingto established meth...
