Optical teledetection of a chlorophyll a in estuarine in coastal waters

Article Abstract:

In this study, subsurface spectral irradiance reflectance was examined in three different regions in the US and the Netherlands using a hand-held spectroradiometer. The study was broken down into an introduction, a discussion of the experiment and its results. Various tables and graphs accompany the article.

Flourescence excitation-emission matrix characterization of some sewage-impacted rivers

Article Abstract:

Author investigates sewage treatment works (STW) discharge to find if it has a flourescence signature. Flourescence excitation-emission matrixes can indeed help determine if STW discharge will have an adverse ecological impact on a river system.

Photodecomposition of the carbamate pesticide carbofuran: kinetics and the influence of dissolved organic matter

Article Abstract:

Researchers explored the relationship between carbofuran and dissolved organic material (DOM) in ground water to determine the pesticide's longevity in the presence of light. Previous research has show that DOM can positively or adversely affect the decomposition of pesticides. Researchers examined kinetic and mechanicistic aspects of carbofurn's decomposition with respect to light and present DOM. Also examined were the resulting chemicals that resulted from the decomposition process, and the processes that generated these chemicals.
