First Insights into the Migration Route and Spatial Distribution of the Endangered Chinese Sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis) in the Yangtze River Estuary

open access: yesFishes
Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis) is an endangered species, and the Yangtze River Estuary is an important migration channel for this species. With the scale of Chinese sturgeon restocking along the Yangtze River gradually increasing, an increasing ...

Numerical simulation of water quality in Yangtze Estuary

open access: yesWater Science and Engineering, 2009
AbstractIn order to monitor water quality in the Yangtze Estuary, water samples were collected and field observation of current and velocity stratification was carried out using a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP). Results of two representative variables, the temporal and spatial variation of new point source sewage discharge as ...

IMPACT OF RUNOFF ON SALT INTRUSION OF YANGTZE ESTUARY [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 2011
Based on one-dimensional and two-dimensional mathematical coupling models of tidal current and salinity from Datong to Yangtze estuary, the impacting scope of salt intrusion are calculated when the runoff of Datong from 4,500m3/s to 30,000m3/s, and the maximum and average value of salinity at each representative point of the estuary are given.

Age and growth of the endemic groovebelly stingray (Dasyatis hypostigma), a heavily exploited batoid in the Brazilian Meridional Margin (21–34° S)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Life‐history data are often lacking for exploited elasmobranchs, jeopardizing proper management and conservation measures for this vulnerable group. Herein, we provided age and growth estimates for the groovebelly stingray (Dasyatis hypostigma), a medium‐sized, heavily exploited batoid endemic to the southwestern Atlantic Ocean.

Uptake and accumulation of metals in Spartina alterniflora salt marshes from a South American estuary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Salt marshes are capable of reducing metal pollution in coastal waters, but this capacity is highly dependent on the metal, the physico-chemical characteristics of the sediment, the plant species, the production of biomass, the time of the year, etc. The

Phenotypic divergence may facilitate co‐occurrence in Acanthopagrus species (Family: Sparidae)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding why closely related species co‐occur is one fundamental question in ecology. The seabream genus Acanthopagrus Peters, 1855 (Sparidae) is broadly distributed across the Indo‐Pacific, with four species, A. arabicus and A. sheim (yellowfin group), and A. bifasciatus and A.

Critical discharge at Datong for controlling operation of South-to-North Water Transfer Project in dry seasons

open access: yesWater Science and Engineering, 2008
Previous research shows that there is a strong correlation between saltwater intrusion in the Yangtze Estuary and discharge at Datong. In the near future, the discharge of the Yangtze River during dry seasons will decrease due to the construction and ...
