Microbial ocean-atmosphere transfer: The influence of sewage discharge into coastal waters on bioaerosols from an urban beach in the subtropical Atlantic.
All over the world, the oceans are the final destination of sewage transported by river estuaries, rainwater and other coastal discharges. The risks to human health related to direct contact with water and consumption of contaminated fish are well known, but little is known about the potential for atmospheric exposure to pollutants and pathogens from contaminated seawater. The release of microbial particles from the sea into the atmosphere occurs mainly by the eruption of rising bubbles through the sea surface microlayer (SML) or by sea spray. We investigated the heterotrophic bacteria density and relative abundance in SML and bioaerosols originated on the seafront of Fortaleza (Atlantic coastal zone, northeastern Brazil) influenced by wastewater disposal. There was a difference in the density of total heterotrophic bacteria (THB) according to the matrix analyzed during two seasons: the bacterial count was highest in the SML during the rainy season while the highest number of bacteria in bioaerosols samples was recorded during the dry season. Twenty-nine bacterial taxonomic groups were identified with variable abundance for both environments. These were the same in both matrices, with environmental variables influencing their abundance and composition. The contribution of the marine and continental environments in shaping the microbiota of the SML and coastal bioaerosols was clear, with the constant and representative presence of Enterobacteria standing out. The aerosolization of bacteria resulting from the discharge of untreated sewage is an important issue related to coastal environmental health and ecological safety.
期刊介绍:
Marine Environmental Research publishes original research papers on chemical, physical, and biological interactions in the oceans and coastal waters. The journal serves as a forum for new information on biology, chemistry, and toxicology and syntheses that advance understanding of marine environmental processes.
Submission of multidisciplinary studies is encouraged. Studies that utilize experimental approaches to clarify the roles of anthropogenic and natural causes of changes in marine ecosystems are especially welcome, as are those studies that represent new developments of a theoretical or conceptual aspect of marine science. All papers published in this journal are reviewed by qualified peers prior to acceptance and publication. Examples of topics considered to be appropriate for the journal include, but are not limited to, the following:
– The extent, persistence, and consequences of change and the recovery from such change in natural marine systems
– The biochemical, physiological, and ecological consequences of contaminants to marine organisms and ecosystems
– The biogeochemistry of naturally occurring and anthropogenic substances
– Models that describe and predict the above processes
– Monitoring studies, to the extent that their results provide new information on functional processes
– Methodological papers describing improved quantitative techniques for the marine sciences.
