This report discusses a sequence of six cruises in the vicinity of the Boynton-Delray (South Central) treated-wastewater plant outfall plume (26°27'43"N, 80°2'32"W), the Boynton Inlet (26°32'43"N, 80°2'30"W), and the Lake Worth Lagoon, Palm Beach County, Florida. The sampling cruises took place on June 5-6, 2007; August 28-29, 2007; October 18-19, 2007; February 14 and 18, 2008; May 19-20, 2008; and July 11-13, 2008. Water was sampled at 18 locations at the surface, middle, and near the seafloor (where there was sufficient depth) for a total of 45 samples; these samples were analyzed for a variety of nutrients and related parameters. The water sampling unit contained a conductivity-tempe...
"The principal goal of this study was to estimate the expected value of turbidity at selected study sites in Biscayne Bay during times when no major construction or dredging activities were taking place, using methods that allowed for observations at high temporal resolution, and to examine how these turbidity levels were perturbed and modulated by environmental factors. A second goal was to examine the natural variability in factors influencing the overall clarity of the water, notably the concentration of colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM), which attenuates solar radiation used for photosynthesis by seagrasses. The final goal was to collect data on the sources and nature of naturally-occurring suspended material in the Bay using scanning electron microscopy (SEM)"--Page 1.
