Tidal flat microbial communities between the Huaihe estuary and Yangtze River estuary

Environmental Research, 2023
Tidal flats have important ecological functions and offer great economic value. Using field sampling, numerical simulation, and high-throughput sequencing, the ecological state of typical tidal flats along the eastern coast of China was investigated. The findings demonstrated that the area may be separated into subregions with notable differences in ...

Jellyfish Blooms in the Yangtze Estuary

Science, 2005
Jellyfish blooms in estuaries worldwide ([1][1]) can have substantial effects on plankton communities and fish populations because jellyfish are consumers of zooplankton and ichthyoplankton. Jellyfish populations normally fluctuate regularly, causing periodic blooms.

A predictive model for salt intrusion in estuaries applied to the Yangtze estuary

Journal of Hydrology, 2015
Summary Understanding the way salinity distribution in an estuary reacts to external drivers (e.g., tide, fresh water discharge, dredging, etc.) is important for both water quality and water resources management in estuaries. The salinity distribution depends strongly on the geometry of an estuary, but also on the fresh water discharge that ...

Eco-Morphological Problems in the Yangtze Estuary and the Western Scheldt

Wetlands, 2011
This paper compares the Yangtze Estuary in China and the Western Scheldt Estuary in The Netherlands by their morphodynamic and ecological systems, their engineering works and estuarine management issues, and the major challenges in studying them. Physically speaking, the two estuaries are very different. The Yangtze Estuary is much larger and much more

DNRA in intertidal sediments of the Yangtze Estuary

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, 2017
AbstractDissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) plays an important role in regulating the fate of reactive nitrogen in estuarine and coastal ecosystems. In this work, intertidal sediments of the Yangtze Estuary were collected in January and August 2015.

Tidal modulation of the hypoxia adjacent to the Yangtze Estuary in summer

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2015
The influence of tide on the distribution of hypoxia adjacent to the Yangtze Estuary was investigated using a three-dimensional hydrodynamic eutrophication model. In the absence of tide, the hypoxic areal extent increased from 5226.75km(2) in the base model run to 19,514.25km(2), and it mainly occurred in the inner shelf region near the mouth of the ...

Observation of saltwater intrusion and ETM dynamics in a stably stratified estuary: the Yangtze Estuary, China

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2017
Spatial and temporal measurement data describing spring-neap variations of velocity, salinity, and suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in the North Passage Deepwater Navigational Channel (DNC) of the Yangtze Estuary, China, were obtained in the wet season of 2012.

Wetland Area Holdings in the Yangtze River Estuary

Advanced Materials Research, 2012
Wetland resource in Shanghai city is very abundant, and the contradiction between human development and land limit is very violent, so that the development and utilization of wetlands is inevitable. It’s an important way to reclaim wetland to solve the contradiction in Shanghai.
