A new chemiluminescence (CL) method based on the chemiluminescent reaction between sulfide and an acidic permanganate solution was used to quantify sulfide in seawater. A terbium-pipemidic acid complex was used as CL enhancer. The method was used to determine sulfide in the concentration range of 1-30 μmol/L in artificial seawater samples. The limit of detection of the method was 21 nmol/L sulfide. The sensitivity of the CL method was eight times higher than that of the CL method reported previously. Br ions, which are conservative ions, interfered with sulfide. We investigated the effects of salinity, water temperature, and interfering chemicals,such asheavy-metal ions and organic matter, on the performance of the CL method. In addition, sulfite-spiked natural seawater samples were analyzed. The results demonstrate that the CL method can be used to develop a deep-sea sulfide analyzer.

The massive production and widespread use of plastics have resulted in a growing marine plastic pollution problem. Cold seep ecosystems are maintained by microorganisms related to nitrogen and carbon cycling that occur in deep-sea areas, where cold hydrocarbon-rich water seeps from the ocean floor. Little is known about plastic pollution in this ecosystem.

Collection of coral for histologic examination requires holding of samples in seawater for a time before they are fixed for histologic processing. This could adversely affect the interpretation of morphologic changes during histologic examinations. We evaluated the microscopic morphology of and held (0-120 minutes) in seawater prior to fixation in Z-Fix formulated with raw or artificial seawater.

Nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs) are known to infect phytoplankton and play a significant role in regulating their population dynamics. In this study, we aimed to investigate the co-occurrence patterns between phytoplankton and NCLDVs in the southern coastal ecosystem of South Korea. We collected seawater every month from March 2018 to December 2020 and analyzed the samples using Cytochrome c Oxidase subunit I metabarcoding and metagenomic analyses.

Fluorescent lifetimes of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and associated physicochemical parameters were measured over 14 months in an estuary in Southern California, USA. Measurements were made on 77 samples from sites near the inlet, mid-estuary, and outlet to maximize the range of physicochemical variables. Time-resolved fluorescence data were well fit to a triexponential model with an intermediate lifetime component (τ: 1 to 5 ns), a long lifetime component (τ: 2 to 15 ns), and a short lifetime component (τ: < 1 ns).

The present study aimed to investigate the hydrogeochemical patterns and contamination of the radiogeology, especially radon activity, related to geothermal aquifer properties and to perform a risk assessment of annual effective doses covering all hydrothermal spring attractions in Southern Thailand. Radon is an established lung carcinogen; especially longer term exposure to radioactive radon through inhalation could be a cause of lung cancer risk. Altogether 22 hydrothermal spring samples were collected from the six hydrothermal provinces in Southern Thailand in early November of 2023.
