Phosphate Availability During Sediment Resuspension Events In The Great Bay Estuary, Taylor Langkau
Phosphate Availability During Sediment Resuspension Events In The Great Bay Estuary, Taylor Langkau
Honors Theses and Capstones
Phosphate is an important nutrient to marine ecosystems such as the Great Bay Estuary. However, its bioavailability is limited due to its tendency to adsorb to marine sediments, especially iron oxides. This paper investigates phosphate dynamics during a simulated storm compared to calm conditions and aims to quantify the mechanisms of phosphate adsorption.
