“…The importance of Eh for the biological and chemical processes in the marine sediments has been confirmed before (Becking et al 1960;Berner 1963). Bacterial sulfate reduction takes place only in environments with negative redox potentials, as shown in many pure culture studies (Davis and Yarbrough 1966). Therefore, it is generally expected that stations with negative redox potentials contain higher AVS concentrations in contrast to stations with positive redox potentials.…”

Sediment samples from the coastal area of Asaluyeh harbor were collected during autumn and spring 2015. The acidvolatile sulfide (AVS) and simultaneously extracted metals (SEMs) were measured to assess the sediment quality and potential ecological risks. The average concentrations (and relative standard deviation (RSD)) of AVS in the industrial sediments were 12.32 μmol/g (36.91) and 6.34 μmol/g (80.05) in autumn and spring, respectively, while in the urban area, these values were 0.44 μmol/g (123.50) and 0.31 μmol/g (160.0) in autumn and spring, respectively. The average concentrations of SEM (and RSD) in the industrial sediments were 15.02 μmol/g (14.38) and 12.34 μmol/g (20.65) in autumn and spring, respectively, while in the urban area, these values were 1.10 μmol/g (43.03) and 1.06 μmol/g (55.59) in autumn and spring, respectively. Zn was the predominant component (34.25-86.24 %) of SEM, while the corresponding value for Cd, much more toxic ingredient, was less than 1 %. Some of the coastal sediments in the harbor of Asaluyeh (20 and 47 % in autumn and spring, respectively) had expected adverse biological effects based on the suggested criterion by United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), while most stations (80 and 53 % in autumn and spring, respectively) had uncertain adverse effects.

“…As it is recognized that anaerobic CH. oxidation requires other carbon sources (Davis and Yarbrough 1966;Panganiban et al 1979), these results indicated that CH 4 was decomposed in the subsoil by microorganisms leached from the plow layer soil using organic materials derived from the plow layer soil. These results also suggested that CH 4 may be oxidized in the plow layer soil as well as the subsoil.…”

“…Anaerobic CR; oxidation requires other carbon sources such as lactate and acetate for the growth of methanotrophic microorganisms (Davis and Yarbrough 1966;Panganiban et al 1979), suggesting that anaerobic CR 4 oxidation by microorganisms in the subsoil is not prominent. Meanwhile, the leachate from the plow layer soil contained microorganisms and water soluble organic materials as 1.…”

“…These observations suggested that water soluble organic materials in the leachate from the upper layer were used by microorganisms in the lower layer under anaerobic conditions. Methane oxidation may be coupled with Toe decomposition since anaerobic methane oxidation requires an organic carbon source such as acetate or lactate (Davis and Yarbrough 1966;Panganiban et al 1979). Some portion of TOe, however, was considered to be retained in the lower layer of Treatment 2 because the amount of Ie produced in this layer was smaller than that of unrecovered TOC.…”
