ABSTRACT We investigated the temporal variation of bacterial production, respiration, and growth efficiency in tropical coastal waters Peninsular Malaysia. selected five stations including two estuaries three water stations. The temperature was relatively stable (averaging around 29.5°C), whereas salinity more variable estuaries. also measured dissolved organic carbon nitrogen (DOC DON, respectively) concentrations. DOC generally ranged from 100 to 900 μM, DON 0 32 μM. Bacterial respiration...
Sodium alginate is the most commonly used polymer matrix in microalgae immobilization for water treatment. However, susceptibility of matrixes to cation chelating agents and antigelling limits use alginates estuarine marine systems. Hence, present study aims investigate stability bead feasibility grow when immobilized Different concentrations hardening calcium were formulate beads. The beads incubated Guillard’s f/2 medium shaken vigorously by using orbital shaker 15 days. results indicated...

Fatty acid profiles of Moina macrocopa enriched with lipids from inexpensive squid or canola oil were compared a commercial enrichment diet, A1 DHA Selco® (ADS). Arachidonic (AA) significantly increased <0.01 to 0.28 mg/g body weight in ADS at 1 g/l for 12 h and 0.38 2 h. The highest increase eicosapentaenoic (EPA; 0.15 mg/g) was obtained when increases docosahexaenoic (DHA; originally <0.01) (increased 0.09) 24 (rose 0.8 mg/g). AA:EPA ratio treated AA:DHA while the DHA:EPA
The zooplankton Moina macrocopa was cultured with three kinds of emulsified lipid media (Selco®, squid oil, canola oil) and two fish wastes (fish pellets feces) to determine the impact these food sources on its population dynamics. All diets were provided at five levels: 0.0625, 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0 g/l. For all diets, life history parameters showed highest values lowest concentrations, i.e., <0.125 Overall demographic performance better in M. fed liquid than raised control treatment...
Straits of Malacca and South China Sea are vulnerable to oil pollution because the huge amount crude transported through these waters annually. The present level in is between 150-300 μ g L− 1 water 70–100 mg kg− sediment. Whenever there an spill Malacca, could be raised higher than 500 1.

Three short sediment cores (12-32 cm) from South China Sea off Southern Terengganu were collected during May (post-Northeast monsoon) and September (pre-Northeast 2007.The concentration of total organic carbon (TOC) obtained ranged 0.41-2.23 0.38-2.31%during post pre-monsoon, respectively.TOC was found to decrease with depth distance the coast river mouth.In particular, station close proximity exhibits most pronounced variation TOC depth.Besides spatial variation, it is noted that seasonal...
The effects of two widely used pesticides in paddy fields, 2, 4-D, dimethylamine and endosulfan, on growth, photosynthetic rate the pigments Chaetoceros sp. Nannochloropsis were assessed this study. 48 hour 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) value for 4-D 142.2 mg l−1 211.8 l−1, respectively, IC50 endosulfan 21.9 μ g 45.8 respectively. Endosulfan was much more toxic to microalgae than dimethylamine. Both reduced oxygen production microalgae. After hours exposure pesticides, transferred a...
Abstract Reefing of Oil and Gas structure has become as one the emerging options for decommissioning an O&G Structure offshore requires expert input beyond engineering such biomarine environmental sciences. This paper will present interdisciplinary collaborative effort by industries with academia in Malaysia developing a reef viability index first high level screening to assess suitability using reefing option region. The results formulation identify area that potential be used...
Decommissioning of the offshore platform as an artificial reef, known Rigs-to-Reefs (R2R), has become a sustainable approach for oil companies. The was reused to serve underwater ecosystem reef new marine which helps tackle food security issue. This paper presents findings formulation reefing viability index recognize region that can be used R2R projects within South China Sea. combined effects spatial data, numerical modelling, and geographic system (GIS) are proposed study relationship...
