Suspended sediment (SS) is an important pollutant in freshwater ecosystems and can be detrimental to fish communities. Although macrophytes mediate sediment deposition, little effort has been put into determining how their removal affects sediment resuspension. The present study examined the immediate and long-term impacts of mechanical macrophyte removal on SS concentrations in streams. The results of this study suggest that bed disturbance during mechanical excavation of macrophytes significantly increases SS in the short term, and concentrations were found to increase by as much as 15,687 mg L–1 immediately after macrophyte removal. Significant long-term (77 day) increases in SS were also observed, indicating that without macrophytes, disturbed material is continually resuspended after excavation by fluvial processes. These results demonstrate that macrophyte removal can result in SS levels that have previously been shown to harm fish, and indicate that this activity may be more detrimental to fish than previously thought. 相似文献

We show within the framework of the restricted three body problem that
- Only in the immediate neighbourhood of the Lagrangian pointsL 4 andL 5 the distribution of a cloud of particles tends to become uniform under the influence of random stochastic perturbations. No consequences can be derived from this fact for a tendency of dispersion of clouds librating at arbitrary distances around the Lagrangian points.
- From an elementary inspection of the Jacobi integral we cannot conclude that mutual completely inelastic collisions tend to drive the particles away from the vicinity of the libration points.

Water samples collected at the 21°N hydrothermal site on the East Pacific Rise crest, including Deep-Tow and hydrocast samples collected in 1977 and three hot vent water samples collected recently with the submersible “Alvin”, contain significant additions of3He,4He, and Mn. Although the vent water collections were at least 50-fold diluted with ambient seawater, they are up to 53 times enriched in3He and 7.4 times enriched in4He relative to saturated seawater, with concentrations of total dissolvable manganese (TDM) up to 310 μg/kg.3He and4He covary in the vent samples, with3He/4He about 8 times the atmospheric ratio, reflecting a mantle helium source. In contrast to the helium isotopes the Mn/3He ratio in the vent samples is variable, ranging from 4.3 × 104 up to 1.0 × 105 g/cm3. Profiles of3He/4He and TDM in the water column at 21°N show a sharp maximum ofδ(3He) = 47%and TDM= 0.69 μg/kg, much higher than the average values of 34% and 0.2 μg/kg for the deep water in this region. This spike in3He and Mn occurs at 2400 m depth, 200 m above the level of the 21°N vents, and 100 m higher than any local bathymetry, evidence for upward transport of the hydrothermal discharge via rising plumes of hot vent water. Two of the 21°N Deep-Tow samples associated with small (?0.010°C) temperature anomalies hadδ(3He) = 38%and TDM= 0.28 and 0.58 μg/kg, also slightly elevated relative to background. The Deep-Tow and hydrocast samples have lower Mn/3He ratios than average vent samples due to Mn removal by scavenging. Comparison of vent samples and water column measurements at 21°N indicate that the pure vent water could be detected using3He and Mn even when diluted ~105 times with seawater, confirming that these two tracers are extremely sensitive indicators of submarine hydrothermal activity. 相似文献

As part of the 1984–1985 NOAA VENTS program on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, nephelometry was used to provide real-time detection and tracking of dispersed hydrothermal plumes. At all nine 1984 study sites, hydrothermal activity was detected by in-situ, real-time nephelometer measurements and later confirmed by dissolved Mn and particulate Fe measurements. These same techniques were employed in a site-specific survey of the Trans-Atlantic Geotraverse (TAG) area in 1985 where large water-column anomalies in turbidity and in dissolved Mn helped lead to the discovery of high-temperature black smokers.The optical response of the nephelometer was to hydrothermally-derived particulate matter. Thus strong correlations existed between the nephelometer readings and total suspended matter (r = 0.98, n = 34), and particulate Fe (r = 0.88, n = 32). In addition, digital nephelometer data correlated well with dissolved Mn (r = 0.88; n = 78) throughout a large concentration range (0.2–31.0 nmol/kg).These data provide good evidence for the utility of in-situ nephelometer measurements for locating and surveying plumes from hydrothermal vents. It also appears possible, within limits, to predict concentrations of in-situ total suspended matter, of particulate Fe and of dissolved Mn. 相似文献
