The effects of exposure concentration on the bioaccumulation four perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs): perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS), perfluoroocanoic acid (PFOA), perfluorononanoic (PFNA), and perfluorodecanoic (PFDA), was investigated using green mussels, Perna viridis. Mussels were exposed to concentrations 1 μgL–1 10 each PFC for 56 days, factors (BAF) found range from 15 859 L/kg 12 473 at μgL–1, respectively. For all compounds, BAF larger lower dosage. Results suggest that PFCs is...
Summary Populations of broadcasting reef corals often exhibit marked reproductive seasonality and spawning synchrony. Within speciose coral assemblages there is considerable overlap periods among species, resulting in multi-species events (or "mass spawning"). Earlier geographical comparisons synchrony suggested a reduction the extent mass with proximity to equator. In contrast, recent studies have revealed that within species are features on equatorial reefs. Here we review proposed causes...
Filamentous benthic marine cyanobacteria are a prolific source of structurally unique bioactive secondary metabolites. A total 12 metabolites, belonging to the mixed polyketide–polypeptide structural class, were isolated from cyanobacterium, Lyngbya majuscula, and tested determine if they showed activity against barnacle larval settlement. The assays revealed four compounds, dolastatin 16 (1), hantupeptin C (4), majusculamide (10), isomalyngamide (12), that moderate potent anti-larval...
This study estimates the maximum and minimum degrees of autocompaction for radiocarbon-dated Holocene mangrove sediments in Singapore, order to correct apparent sediment accretion rates effects compression due autocompaction. Relationships developed a suite modern (surface) samples between bulk density, particle-size distribution, organic matter content were used estimate initial (uncompacted) density buried variably compressed sediments, based on grain-size distribution sediment. The...
