This book was released on 1992 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investigations were conducted to assess the spatial and temporal extent of impacts on benthic resources caused by open-water disposal of maintenance dredging materials in Mobile Bay, Alabama. Sediment profiling imagery was used in conjunction with conventional benthic grab samples to determine boundaries of a dredged material overburden and its effects on benthos immediately after disposal and at intervals of several months thereafter. Substantial effects were observed in terms of reduced benthic biomass, reduced redox potential discontinuity depth, and altered surface sediment relief. All effects were confined to within 1,500 m of the discharge point, and recovery of the benthos occurred within 12 weeks. Bay-wide surveys of benthic habitats yielded little evidence of cumulative effects of open-water disposal on benthic communities. Detected differences in benthic community parameters can be attributed to natural physical processes within the estuary, such as wind-driven circulation and sediment resuspension and prevailing salinity gradients, and do not appear to be present as a consequence of maintenance dredging open-water disposal practices.

This book was released on 1978 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the outset the report contains a discussion of several factors which indicate that deep ocean disposal of dredged material may need to be utilized much more extensively in the future than now. There follows a delineation and preliminary evaluation of the potential physical, chemical, and biological impacts that may occur from the disposal of dredged material in the deep ocean at and beyond the outer edge of the continental shelves of the United States and its possessions. A substantial part of the report is then devoted to the selection and description of oceanic areas (not sites) off eleven subdivisions or sectors of the U.S. coasts in which District Engineers or other Corps of Engineers officials may select specific disposal sites. The main body of the report is composed of two multipartite sections: Deep Ocean Disposal Perspectives, and Deep Ocean Disposal Environmental Considerations.
