Nutrient dynamics in coastal and esturine waters
The event is organized and sponsored by the Danish Environmental Protection Agency in collaboration with the environmental research programme of DG XII of the Commission of the European Communities. It aims to bring together researchers from around the world to focus on specific issues concerned with coastal and esturine systems.
Special attention will be given to current perspectives on comparisons of nutrient dynamics in different geographical regions. Particularly welcome are contributions with reference to research in the Baltic, the North Sea including the Wadden Sea, the Adriatic and the Mediterranean.
The symposium is expected to review progress in the following areas of marine ecology: Nutrient fluxes and retention in estuaries; structure and dynamics of pelagic environments; biological oceanography of estuaries; sediment and mineralization processes; sediment/water exchange processes; atmosphere/water exchange processes; macrophyte dominated communities; fish and benthic fauna; eutrophication and system analysis; case studies.
