Direct Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy Analysis of Estuarine Suspended Particulate Matter Collected on Filters [PDF]

Molecules
Estuaries are dynamic environments that influence the transport of metals and nutrients from land to sea, with suspended particulate matter (SPM) serving as a key vehicle for them.

Estuarine Exchange Flow in the Albemarle‐Pamlico Estuarine System

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans
AbstractEstuarine exchange flow controls the salt balance and regulates biogeochemistry in an estuary. The Albemarle‐Pamlico estuarine system (APES) is the largest coastal lagoon in the U.S. and historically susceptible to a series of environmental issues including salt water intrusion and eutrophication, yet its estuarine exchange flow is poorly ...

Composition and structure of the benthic diatom community from salt marshes of southern Brazil and their relationship to environmental variables [PDF]

Acta Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2023
: Aim This study focused on the spatiotemporal variation of the benthic diatom community structure in salt marshes from the Patos Lagoon estuary and their relationship with environmental variables.

Role of saltmarsh systems in estuarine trapping of microplastics [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2022
AbstractSaltmarshes are important natural ecosystems along many temperate (and other) coastlines. They stabilize sediments and act as biofilters for a range of industrial pollutants and, potentially, microplastics. Accumulation of microplastics along estuarine coastlines may be enhanced by the presence of saltmarsh species, as they offer better ...

Nitrogen in Atmospheric Wet Depositions Over the East Indian Ocean and West Pacific Ocean: Spatial Variability, Source Identification, and Potential Influences

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Atmospheric deposition is the dominant pathway for the loading of exogenous nitrogen (N) to open ocean. Here, rainwater samples were collected from 31 stations in the equatorial East Indian Ocean (EIO) and West Pacific Ocean (WPO) to explore the spatial ...

Radium-Derived Water Mixing and Associated Nutrient in the Northern South China Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Nutrients play an important role as biogenic elements in modulating marine productivity, and water mixing usually facilitates the transportation of nutrients in the coastal ocean.

Considering socio-political framings when analyzing coastal climate change effects can prevent maldevelopment on small islands

Nature Communications, 2021
Climate change adaptation and sea level rise pose challenges for both natural and societal dynamics. Here the authors analyse coastal processes and socio-political dimensions of erosion, leading to maldevelopment on Fuvahmulah in the Maldives.

Research progress on hydrology-geomorphology-ecology system evolution and multidimensional regulation in Yellow River Delta

Shui kexue jinzhan, 2023
The estuarine delta is a complex system formed by the coupled interactions of hydrology, geomorphology, and ecology. The evolution of the estuarine delta is characterized by strong spatiotemporal fluctuations, high sensitivity to disturbances ...

Co-occurrence of planktonic bacteria and archaea affects their biogeographic patterns in China’s coastal wetlands

Environmental Microbiome, 2021
Planktonic bacteria and archaea play a key role in maintaining ecological functions in aquatic ecosystems; however, their biogeographic patterns and underlying mechanisms have not been well known in coastal wetlands including multiple types and at a ...

Coastal Wetland Shoreline Change Monitoring: A Comparison of Shorelines from High-Resolution WorldView Satellite Imagery, Aerial Imagery, and Field Surveys

Remote Sensing, 2021
Shoreline change analysis is an important environmental monitoring tool for evaluating coastal exposure to erosion hazards, particularly for vulnerable habitats such as coastal wetlands where habitat loss is problematic world-wide.
