Method for generating parameterized ecotoxicity data of dispersed oil for use in environmental modelling.

abstract：:Nutrient loading from sewage wastewater discharge contributes to the eutrophication of coastal waters. Wastewater from the Gold Coast, Australia is discharged into the Gold Coast Seaway (GCS) for 13.5 h d-1 primarily on the ebbing tide to disperse wastewater seawards. Nitrogen stable isotopes were used to assess how e...
