SPATIAL VARIATIONS OF ENVIRONMENTALTRACER DISTRIBUTIONS IN WATER FROMA MANGROVE ECOSYSTEM: THE CASE OFBABITONGA BAY (SANTA CATARINA, BRAZIL)

摘要

The hydrologic complex of Babitonga Bay (Brazil) forms a vast environmentalcomplex, where agriculture, shellfish farming, and industries coexist with a uniquenatural area of Atlantic rain forest. The origin of different continental hydrologicalcomponents, the environmental transition between saline and fresh waters, and theinfluence of the seasonality on Babitonga Bay waters are evaluated using isotopes and
