Uncovering responses of zooplankton community to CO2 acidification in Qatar coastal waters
(
Hamad Bin Khalifa University Press
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The combustion of fossil fuels is pushing atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) to unprecedented levels. This rapid increase in atmospheric CO2 is causing global changes, with noticeable increases in temperature, ...

(
Bloomsbury Qatar Foundation Journals
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Microplastics are now firmly recognized as a ubiquitous and growing global threat to marine biota, as well as their associated ecology and habitats. The prevalence of microplastics in the marine waters within Qatar’s ...
Accumulation of Trace Metals, Petroleum Hydrocarbons, and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Marine Copepods from the Arabian Gulf
(
Springer Verlag New York Inc
, 2001 , Article)
In this study, zooplankton samples were collected from the coastal waters of Qatar during winter and summer 1998 to assess the impact of growing industrialization on the bioaccumulation of trace metals, total petroleum ...
Trace element composition of size-fractionated suspended particulate matter samples from the Qatari Exclusive Economic Zone of the Arabian Gulf: the role of atmospheric dust
(
Copernicus Publications
, 2020 , Article)
We analyzed net-tow samples of natural assemblages
of plankton, and associated particulate matter, from
the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of Qatar in the Arabian
Gulf. Size-fractionated suspended particles were ...
The benthic sea-silk-thread displacement of a sessile bivalve, Pinctada imbricata radiata (Leach, 1819) in the Arabian-Persian Gulf
(
Public Library of Science
, 2019 , Article)
A number of molluscs within the Class Bivalvia are defined by their ability to secrete fine silk like threads known as byssus which are used to anchor themselves to solid substrates. With relatively few exceptions the ...
The biological effects of chemical contaminants in the Arabian/Persian Gulf: A review
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
© 2019 Elsevier B.V. The Arabian Gulf is a shallow sea naturally exposed to extreme conditions of temperature and salinity due to its location, semi-enclosed nature, bathymetry and restricted circulation. Compared to open ...
Relationship Between Tree Size, Sediment Mud Content, Oxygen Levels, and Pneumatophore Abundance in the Mangrove Tree Species Avicennia Marina (Forssk.) Vierh
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Mangroves are important in protecting and stabilizing coastal zones. Pneumatophores of the mangrove species Avicennia marina can form a large aboveground complex of aerial roots, which are important in supporting mangrove ...
Feminization of hawksbill turtle hatchlings in the twenty-first century at an important regional nesting aggregation
(
Inter Research
, 2021 , Article)
Projected climate change is forecasted to have significant effects on biological systems worldwide. Marine turtles in particular may be vulnerable, as the sex of their offspring is determined by their incubating temperature, ...
Molluscan diversity influenced by mangrove habitat in the khors of Qatar
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
The Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of Qatar is a rapidly developing region within the Arabian Gulf, where monitoring of changes in benthic biodiversity and its functioning is needed. The influence of mangroves and seasonality ...
Formation and weathering assessment of oil-suspended sediment aggregates through a laboratory investigation.
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
Formation of oil-suspended sediment aggregates (OSAs) is believed to be one of the natural cleaning processes in the marine environment. In this study, we have investigated the formation processes of OSAs under different ...
