Assessing the Influence of Typhoons on Salt Intrusion in the Modaomen Estuary within the Pearl River Delta, China

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Salt intrusion presents a significant environmental challenge in numerous estuaries around the world, including the Modaomen Estuary in China. This phenomenon typically occurs during the winter season due to reduced freshwater flow.

Analysis of the influence of different soil properties on the strength characteristics of cement soil [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2021
When deep cement mixing method (DCM) uses cement as solidified material to treat marine soft foundation, the strength of soil is different due to the diversity of water content, void ratio and particle fineness.

Microplastic occurrence and ecological risk assessment in the eight outlets of the Pearl River Estuary, a new insight into the riverine microplastic input to the northern South China Sea.

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2023
Estuaries are unique transition zones connecting terrestrial and coastal environments and are recognized as primary conveyors for land-derived plastics to open oceans. Riverine microplastics (MPs) have been commonly investigated using sequential sampling

Variation of virtual temperature and wind in the atmospheric boundary layer over the pearl river estuary during 2011–2020

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Most studies of the effects of urbanisation on local climate have been based on ground observation data. In contrast, we used observation data from a boundary layer radar wind profiler, radio-acoustic sounding system, and automatic meteorological station

Multi-index assessment of heavy metal contamination in surface sediments of the Pearl River estuary intertidal zone.

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2022
Surface sediments from 21 stations within the Pearl River estuary (PRE) intertidal zone were sampled for heavy metal contamination analysis. Average heavy metal concentrations (mg/kg) in the PRE intertidal zone were 118.5 (Cr), 860.4 (Mn), 19.5 (Co), 72 ...
