Assessment of Physical-Chemical Characteristics of Water and Sediments from a Brazilian Tropical Estuary: Status and Environmental Implications

The environmental quality of the Jacuípe River's estuary (very important in northeastern Brazil) was assessed during 2007 and 2008. In water, concentrations (mg L−1) of NO2- (<0.004 to 0.016), NO3- (0.01 to 0.33), soluble PO43- (<0.02 to 0.22), dissolved oxygen (3.9 to 9.6), total conten...
