A whole ecosystem perspective of hypoxia and its drivers in a large temperate freshwater estuary

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Hypoxic conditions have become increasingly common during the summer in the bottom waters of seasonally stratified inland and coastal waters. While ultimately driven by carbon and nutrient loading from the watershed and subsequent excessive algal production, the formation and duration of hypoxia are largely controlled by coupled physical ...

Cabomba caroliniana and Schoenoplectus californicus as Antifouling Candidates: Anti‐Attachment and Toxicological Effects in Aurelia coerulea (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa)

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 356-372, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biofouling on artificial surfaces in aquatic ecosystems leads to significant economic losses. Current antifouling paints, while effective, often harm the aquatic environment. This study explores ecologically safe antifouling alternatives derived from plants, focusing on the aquatic macrophytes Cabomba caroliniana (CC) and Schoenoplectus ...

Strategic Roadmap for Addressing Microplastic Pollution in the Global South: Bridging Monitoring Gaps, Harmonizing Methods, and Building Analytical Capacity

open access: yesEnvironmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution represents a growing environmental challenge, especially in tropical and subtropical coastal regions of the Global South, where methodological fragmentation, funding discontinuity, and dependence on external analytical infrastructure limit the production of comparable data and the formulation of evidence‐based ...

The Importance of Scale in the Future of Mangrove Blue Carbon Under Sea‐Level Rise

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract As efficient carbon sinks, mangrove forests are crucial for climate change mitigation. However, their vulnerability to sea‐level rise (SLR) and human activities influencing sediment supply introduces significant uncertainty regarding their future carbon storage capacity.

Hydrodynamic and sediment transport numerical modelling and applications at Tairua Estuary, New Zealand

open access: yes, 2014
Tairua Estuary is a partially mixed estuary located on the east coast of the Coromandel Peninsula, North Island, New Zealand. Like many estuaries worldwide, Tairua Estuary is experiencing rapid sedimentation, which is causing a range of environmental and

Coupling between Hydrodynamics and Chlorophyll a and Bacteria in a Temperate Estuary: A Box Model Approach

open access: yes, 2019
The spatial patterns of chlorophyll a and bacteria were assessed in a temperate Atlantic tidal estuary during seasonal surveys, as well as in consecutive summer spring and neap tides.

Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) Dynamics at the Sediment‐Water Interface in the North Sea: Implications for Global Benthic DOM Fluxes

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Sediment–water exchange of dissolved organic matter (DOM) represents a critical yet poorly constrained component of the marine carbon cycle. Here, we combine quantitative, molecular, and carbon isotope (δ13C and F14C) analyses to investigate the production, composition, and export of porewater DOM in the German Bight, North Sea, and evaluate ...

Nutrient dynamics in shallow tidally-dominated estuaries

open access: yes, 2011
Te Puna and Waikareao estuaries are shallow tidally-dominated estuaries in Tauranga Harbour located on the Bay of Plenty Coast, New Zealand. Tauranga Harbour is the site of a large commercial port surrounded by urban development.

Field Observations of Intermittent Cross‐Shore Bed Load Transport on a Low‐Energy Beach

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Low‐energy sandy beaches typically have a rippled bed, and the presence of bed forms can strongly affect net sediment transport rates under combined forcing of waves and currents. In case low‐energetic forcing is combined with coarse sediment, bed load transport is an important mechanism to understand transport processes on such beaches.

Relationships between benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages and habitat types in nearshore marine and estuarine waters along the lower west coast of Australia

open access: yes, 2007
The following four broad aims were addressed in this study. (1) To ascertain whether the characteristics of the benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages within the different nearshore marine habitat types identified by Valesini et al.
