Sediment–water distribution of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) in Yangtze River Estuary [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Pollution, 2010
Analysis of Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) distribution in water and sediment in Yangtze River Estuary showed that the estuary was a sink for PFOS. Salinity was an important parameter in controlling the sediment-water interactions and the fate or transport of PFOS in the aquatic environment.

Assessment of Metal Contamination and Human Health Risk in the Buffalo River Estuary, Eastern Cape, South Africa

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metal contamination in estuarine environments poses environmental and public health concerns, particularly where surface waters support domestic and subsistence uses. This study assessed the seasonal distribution, controlling mechanisms, and non‐carcinogenic health risks of selected metals (Mg, Al, Ba, Fe, Mn, and Zn) in the Buffalo River ...

The thermal response of soil microbial methanogenesis decreases in magnitude with changing temperature

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Soil microbes produce more methane as temperatures warm, but it is unclear if they acclimate to heat, or keep producing more of the greenhouse gas. Here the authors use artificial wetland warming experiments to show that after initial spikes in methane ...

Plutonium AMS measurements in Yangtze River estuary sediment

open access: yesNuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 2010
Abstract The Yangtze River is the largest single source of sediment to the continental shelf of the East China Sea. The quantity of material exported by the river is expected to decrease substantially as a consequence of an extensive continuing program of dam construction within the river catchment.

Dissolved Oxygen Prediction Model for the Yangtze River Estuary Basin Using IPSO-LSSVM

open access: yesWater, 2023
Water ecology has always been key to environmental protection, and the combination of human activities and natural factors has caused eutrophication in the Yangtze estuary and adjacent waters.

Dutch dilemma: Housing prices and flood risk exposure

open access: yesReal Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This article studies the impact of flood risk exposure on housing prices in a major river delta. Analyzing 1.8 million property transactions from 1998 to 2023 in the Netherlands, we find an average price discount of 1.1%. We observe considerable heterogeneity in price effects driven by exposure intensity, institutional settings that vary ...

Reconstruction of the East Asian monsoon variability since the mid-Holocene from the Pearl River estuary, southern China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The principal aim of this thesis is to reconstruct East Asian Monsoon (EAM) variability during the mid-Holocene, developing a relatively new proxy of bulk organic carbon isotopic signature (δ13C).

A data-driven model to quantify the impact of river discharge on tide-river dynamics in the Yangtze River estuary

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology, 2023
Understanding the role of river discharge on tide-river dynamics is of essential importance for sustainable water management (flood control, salt intrusion, and navigation) in estuarine environments.
