Dear everyone,
Hi! I am planning to conduct a study on how a reef community
structure is modified by ambient nutrient levels. The study area
has high levels of PO4 and NO3 and I have good reason to think that
inputs are from the adjacent resort. In-puts possibly come from
water used to spray on lawns and mini-golf courses, which seeps through
the ground, is nutrient-loaded, and finds its way into the immediate
coastal area. I would like to know how to go about quantifying this
water that ends up in the sea. I have come across studies using
"piezometers" and "seepage meters"-- how do these work? Are there
other ways of quantifying seepage? In addition, if anybody of you is
working on a study related to mine, reprints will be more than welcome.
Thank you very much and have a nice day!
cheers, Chona
