Abstract Various human activities have led to multiple contamination of natural water systems. The present study investigated the effect a novel multifunctional biochar treat nutrients, oil, and harmful algae in water. Specifically, magnesium (Mg) biosurfactant rhamnolipid (RL) were incorporated into biochar, including Mg-biochar, RL-biochar, Mg-RL-biochar. Their adsorption efficiency on phosphate total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) was evaluated separate batch studies. Also, inhibition...
Coral reefs are facing threats from a variety of global change stressors, including ocean warming, acidification, and deoxygenation. It has been hypothesized that growing corals near primary producers such as macroalgae or seagrass may help to ameliorate acidification deoxygenation stress, however few studies have explored this effect in situ. Here, we investigated differences coral growth rates across natural gradient seawater temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO) variability nearshore bed...
