1. A review of common parameters and descriptors used in studies of the impacts of heavy metal pollution on marine macroalgae: identification of knowledge gaps and future needs
ABSTRACT This study presents a systematic review to assess the main similarities and gaps in efforts to evaluate the impacts of heavy metals on benthic marine seaweeds. A total of 91 studies were compiled, the main parameters (abiotic, biological, ecotoxicological, and heavy metals) and descriptors of which were evaluated by quantitative and qualitative ana

2. Metal Contents and Pb Isotopes in the Surface Seawater of the Gulf of Prigi, Indonesia: Detection of Anthropogenic and Natural Sources
In order to investigate the anthropogenic and natural sources of metals in the Gulf of Prigi, Indonesia, it was analyzed their metal contents and Pb isotopes of surface seawater together with sediment, grouper fish, mosh, seaweed, soil, and sharp grass for protecting the environmental pollution of the study area. Samples were leached using a microwave digest

3. Copper Induced Lysosomal Membrane Destabilisation in Haemolymph Cells of Mediterranean Green Crab (Carcinus aestuarii, Nardo, 1847) from the Narta Lagoon (Albania)
ABSTRACTDestabilisation of blood cell lysosomes in Mediterranean green crabCarcinus aestuarii was investigated using Neutral Red Retention Assay (NRRA). Crabs collected in Narta Lagoon, Vlora (Albania) during May 2014 were exposed in the laboratory to sub-lethal, environmentally realistic concentrations of copper. Neutral Red Retention Time (NRRT) and glucos

4. Clustering of water bodies in unpolluted and polluted environments based on Escherichia coli phylogroup abundance using a simple interaction database
Different types of water bodies, including lakes, streams, and coastal marine waters, are often susceptible to fecal contamination from a range of point and nonpoint sources, and have been evaluated using fecal indicator microorganisms. The most commonly used fecal indicator is Escherichia coli, but traditional cultivation methods do not allow discrimination

5. Oceanografia e Química: unindo conhecimentos em prol dos oceanos e da sociedade
The marine environment is certainly one of the most complex systems to study, not only because of the challenges posed by the nature of the waters, but especially due to the interactions of physical, chemical and biological processes that control the cycles of the elements. Together with analytical chemists, oceanographers have been making a great effort in

6. Marcadores orgânicos moleculares como ferramentas no monitoramento ambiental: Avaliação da distribuição de Alquilbenzeno Lineares (LABs) em organismos e sedimentos, como indicativo de exposição ao esgoto em áreas costeiras / Organic molecular markers as tools in environmental monitoring: Evaluation of Linear Alkylbenzene (LABs) distribution in organisms and sediments, as indicative of exposure to sewage in coastal areas
The sewage disposal in coastal areas can cause impacts to marine life, altering the balance of the ecosystem and biodiversity and causing serious diseases in humans. In this study, the concentration of a set of molecular markers for the introduction of organic sewage into the marine environment: linear alkylbenzene (LAB), in samples of sediment, oysters (Cra

7. Ecologia e Conservação de Tartarugas Marinhas Através da Análise de Encalhes no Litoral Paraibano
Five sea turtle species use the Brazilian coast for reproduction and feeding: loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta), green turtle (Chelonia mydas), leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea), olive turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) and hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata). These species are included in the threatened categories, as much globally, according to

8. Acumulação de elementos traço em organismos no estuário da Lagoa dos Patos / Acumulation of trace elements in organisms in the Patos Lagoon
Neste trabalho teores de elementos traço As, Cd, Cu, Cr, Fe, Mn, Pb, Ni e Zn foram determinados no camarão-rosa Farfantepenaeus paulensis, no cirripédio Balanus improvisus e no mexilhão Perna perna, coletados entre os anos de 2006 e 2010 no estuário da Lagoa dos Patos. Os resultados foram avaliados em função das variações hidrológicas interanuais o

9. Toxic Effects of Benzo(a)pyrene on the Red Macroalga Gracilaria birdiae / Efeitos tóxicos de benzo(a)pireno sobre a macroalga vermelha Gracilaria birdiae
Algae show a great biodiversity and occupy many different ecological niches. Besides being essential for the maintenance that allow life on Earth, algae are on the basis of aquatic food chains and they suffer with continuous residue discharge that comes from different human activities. However, once algae are exposed to pollutants, biomarkers can indicate it

10. Toxic effects of cadmium on the microalgae Lingulodinium polyedrum using high performance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) / Análise dos efeitos tóxicos de cádmio sobre a microalga Lingulodinium polyedrum utilizando cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência acoplada à espectrometria de massas (LC-MS/MS)
Given the increase of environmentally harmful human activities, in particular the ones injurious to the aquatic environment, it is important to elucidate the defense mechanisms utilized by organisms exposed to damaging agents. Those species can later be suggested to be used as pollution bioindicators or bioremediatiors. Algae are of particular importance bec

11. ResÃduos sÃlidos bentÃnicos em ambientes recifais de Pernambuco e na abordagem das operadoras de mergulho
Benthic marine debris are those debris deposited on the bottom of the oceans. Studies of this type of pollutant are still scarce all over the world, both about the qualiquantification, as well as about the understanding of how social actors linked to the marine environment are behaving on this issue. Thus, this study aimed to qualiquantify the benthic marine

12. Frequência e diversidade de colifagos somáticos isolados de amostras de água do mar, plâncton e bivalves da baixada santista, canal de São Sebastião e Ubatuba. / Frequency and diversity of somatic coliphages isolated from seawater, plankton and bivalves samples from baixada Santista, Canal de São Sebastião e Ubatuba.
The somatic coliphages (SC) are the better indicator for fecal pollution. In this research, it was obtained the SC abundance in seawater, plankton and bivalves samples collected from Santos, São Sebastiâo and Ubatuba. SC counts were correlated with marine viable bacteria, thermotolerant coliforms, E. coli and intestinal enterococci, and the correlation was
