Hi guys,
By analysing the microbial metagenomics, I found lots of genetic traits related to metal resistance and organic remediation, suggesting the water pollution in ambient seawater.
I've heard that Kaneohe Bay used to be a good snorkelling place in early 90s but then it was polluted.
I am not familiar with the marine chemistry/pollution field, if anyone has the data or knows where I should look at, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
Kind. Fang
Have you looked in the academic databases yet (web of science, google scholar, etc)? I imagine there will be some info there as Kanehoe Bay is well studied.
You might find some information by looking over dissertations and theses through the UH online repository: http://scholarspace.manoa.hawaii.edu/;
Hey Fang, Did any report or paper ever come from the study on marine microbial metabolism? May I ask you who you were working with? Would love to hear more about your results as I am looking to start some microbial sampling in the bay myself. Thanks!
