Evaluation of the ecotoxicity of sediments from Yangtze river estuary and contribution of priority PAHs to ah receptor--mediated activities.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
In this study, in vitro bioassays were performed to assess the ecotoxicological potential of sediments from Yangtze River estuary. The cytotoxicity and aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR)-mediated toxicity of sediment extracts with rainbow trout ...

Escalating Extreme River Discharge Events Driven by Precipitation Changes in the Yangtze River Basin

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Extreme river discharge events (ERDEs) directly induce catastrophic floods, posing severe threats to human life and infrastructure. Understanding the precipitation patterns that precede ERDEs is critical for identifying early flood warnings. This study investigated the spatiotemporal characteristics of 3‐hourly ERDEs across the Yangtze River ...

A Dynamic Foraging Habitat Distribution Estimate for Green Turtles in the Great Barrier Reef

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We develop telemetry‐based habitat models with boosted regression trees to identify the environmental characteristics underpinning foraging habitat suitability for green turtles in the Great Barrier Reef region. We then predict potentially suitable foraging areas for green turtles in the Great Barrier Reef region.

Impact of the Yangtze River on Sediment source-to-sink processes in estuarine bays: a study of the Oujiang River Estuary, SE China

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Our study was designed to unravel the provenance signals of sediments from various sediment source-to-sink processes. To achieve this, we systematically collected samples from river basins, estuaries, and offshore waters of the Oujiang River estuary ...

Diversity, transfer potential, and transcriptional activity of virus‐carried antibiotic resistance genes in global estuaries

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Estuaries are vital hotspots for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) due to substantial antibiotic pollution. Although viruses have been proposed as key reservoirs and important disseminators of ARGs in environments, their contribution to the estuarine antibiotic resistome remains largely unknown.

Big Cities. Big Water. Big Challenges: Water in an Urbanizing World. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper applies the water footprint methodology to six megacities across Africa, Asia, and Latin America to explore the effect of urbanization on water use and demand and determine what measures need to be taken to meet this demand.

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 ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Mesogobio lachneri (Cypriniformes: Gobionidae) from Northeast Asia

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2022
Although Mesogobio lachneri is the type species of the genus Mesogobio, its systematic position and status have remained unresolved to date. In this study, for the first time, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of M.

Tropical river discharge dominates riverine carbon export to Australia's coastal waters

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Rivers play a crucial role in the transformation and export of carbon (C) to coastal waters, yet limited observations in Australia have hindered accurate C flux estimates. We compiled 27,696 dissolved inorganic C (DIC), 15,012 dissolved organic C (DOC), and 226 particulate organic C (POC) measurements in Australian rivers and combined these ...
