An inner shelf penetrating front and its potential biogeochemical effects in the East China Sea during October
Hui Ding, Qinsheng Wei, Ming Xin, Yuhang Zhao, Bin Zhao, Mingyu Wang, Fei Teng, Xuehai Liu, Baodong Wang
2024, 43(11): 1-11. doi: 10.1007/s13131-024-2432-6
Abstract:
Based on in-situ observations in the East China Sea (ECS) during October 2021, we investigated a cross-shelf penetrating front (PF) in the inner shelf and explored its potential biogeochemical-ecological effects from a multidisciplinary perspective. ...
Carbonate system in the subtropical Jiulong River Estuary and CO2 flux estimation under modulation of tidal cycle
Weicong Chen, Heng Sun, Zhongyong Gao, Jiaming Lin, Min Xu, Aijun Wang, Shuqin Tao
2024, 43(11): 12-25. doi: 10.1007/s13131-024-2433-5
Abstract:
Estuaries are often a significant source of atmospheric CO2. However, studies of carbonate systems have predominantly focused on large estuaries, while smaller estuaries have scarcely been documented. In this study, we collected surface and bottom se...
Differential scavenging behavior of anthropogenic Pb revealed by sediment traps in the northern South China Sea basin
Weiying Li, Jingjing Zhang, Hongliang Li, Shuh-Ji Kao, Zezhou Wu, Xingju He, Lihua Ran, Martin G. Wiesner, Jianfang Chen
2024, 43(11): 26-33. doi: 10.1007/s13131-024-2430-8
Abstract:
Trace metals emitted from human activities may have penetrated into the deep seas, and the underlying control mechanisms remain poorly understood. Sinking particles collected by moored time-series sediment traps from the northern South China Sea (NSC...
Understanding the formation mechanism of highly active ridges on East China Sea Shelf during the mid-late Holocene sea-level highstand
Taoyu Xu, Jianxing Liu, Shengfa Liu, Xisheng Fang, Xiaohui Liu, Chenguang Liu, Chang Zhao, Yonghua Wu, Zhifang Xiong, Yanguang Liu, Xuefa Shi
2024, 43(11): 34-44. doi: 10.1007/s13131-024-2397-5
Abstract:
Ridges are common features found on continental shelves and understanding their formation processes is crucial for sedimentology, stratigraphy, and geological engineering. This study investigates the development of ridges on the broad shelf of the Ea...
Preliminary study on the depositional model in the wave-dominated delta evolution during the Anthropocene: a case study of the Hanjiang River Delta in China
Hongyue Wang, Zhongbo Wang, Yang Wang, Haiyan Tang, Xiaodong Zhang, Xiaofeng Luo, Yongxin Mai, Xuhong Huang, Yilin Zheng, Ping Yin, Zhongping Lai
2024, 43(11): 45-56. doi: 10.1007/s13131-024-2313-z
Abstract:
The deltas serve as the primary interactive zone where terrestrial and marine environments converge, playing a pivotal role in the coastal deposition. In the Holocene, climate changes and sea level fluctuation are the principal driving factors in the...
Spatial variability in alkaline earth metals of surface sediments from the Jiulong River mouth, Southeast China: implications for hydro-sedimentary dynamic processes and sedimentary facies
Dadong Pan, Zhanghua Wang, Aijun Wang, Fengling Yu, Xinru Zhu, Xun Yang, Honghong Li, Xiuzhi Chen, Shuyu Li
2024, 43(11): 57-67. doi: 10.1007/s13131-024-2434-4
Abstract:
The establishment of effective proxies for the differentiation of sedimentary facies in the tide-dominated river mouth is fundamental to the delineation of stratigraphy and the study of paleoenvironments. Geochemical signatures of the acetic acid (HA...
Spatiotemporal variations of phytoplankton in the Taiwan Strait using lipid biomarkers and the potential influencing factors
Zitong Liu, Shuqin Tao, Xiang Ye, Aijun Wang, Chang Ran, Shuilan Wu, Zhen Jiang, Junwen Wu
2024, 43(11): 68-87. doi: 10.1007/s13131-024-2380-1
Abstract:
The biological pump, driven by phytoplankton production and death, plays a crucial role in the ocean’s sequestration of atmospheric CO2. In particular, marginal seas with high primary productivity show a significant capacity for carbon fixation. Vari...
Dynamic of phytoplankton community during varying intensities of the northeast monsoon in the Taiwan Strait
Yanping Zhong, Peixuan Wang, Jinxin Chen, Xin Liu, Edward A. Laws, Bangqin Huang
2024, 43(11): 88-98. doi: 10.1007/s13131-024-2381-0
Abstract:
The characteristics of the terrain of a strait can lead to a “fine tube” effect that enhances a monsoon and thereby affects the physical, chemical, and biological processes of marine ecosystems. This effect is a highly dynamic and complex phenomenon ...
The response of surface sedimental diatoms to the environment and its potential significance in the Taiwan Strait, western Pacific
Min Chen, Xuan Liu, Shuqin Tao, Aijun Wang, Yanting Lin, Zhaohe Luo, Ya Xu, Jiayu Li, Qing Huang
2024, 43(11): 99-117. doi: 10.1007/s13131-024-2431-7
Abstract:
As the most important component of marine siliceous organisms, diatoms are vital primary producers of the ocean that are often used as indicators of paleoenvironmental change. To understand the response of sedimental diatoms to regional environmental...
Analysis of coastline changes and influencing factors for the Macao Special Administrative Region based on Neural Network Algorithms
Xiaofang Jiang, Feijian Yin
2024, 43(11): 118-130. doi: 10.1007/s13131-024-2437-1
Abstract:
The Macao Special Administrative Region is located in the southeastern coastal area of China. The region of Macao was narrow in the history, so land reclamation has become a main means of expanding its geographical scope. Exploring the significance o...
