Seasonal behaviour of tidal damping and residual water level slope in the Yangtze River estuary: identifying the critical position and river discharge for maximum tidal damping [PDF]
As a tide propagates into the estuary, river discharge affects tidal damping, primarily via a friction term, attenuating tidal motion by increasing the quadratic velocity in the numerator, while reducing the effective friction by increasing the water ...

Changes in the molecular composition of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and its light-absorbing component (CDOM) along the river–coastal ocean continuum are crucial for better understanding the source and fate of DOM in coastal oceans.

Abstract Kenya's aquaculture sector is at a pivotal stage, transitioning from a historical reliance on Nile tilapia and African catfish toward a more diversified production portfolio that integrates indigenous and emerging freshwater and marine species. This shift is increasingly recognized as essential to enhance climate resilience, food security, and

Typhoon‐Driven Near‐Surface Groundwater Dynamics Revealed by Ambient Noise in the Mountain Watershed
Abstract Near‐surface groundwater dynamics (NSGD) regulate water residence time and downstream water resources in mountain watersheds, yet whether a single extreme rainfall event can reorganize near‐surface storage remains unclear. Here, we examine typhoon‐driven NSGD using ambient seismic noise from four stations, together with hydrological and ...

Abstract There is growing interest in nature‐based hybrid flood risk mitigation, in which wetland ecosystems, such as tidal marshes, are an integral part. Tidal marshes can attenuate wave loading on defense structures, reduce breach depth in case of defense structure failure, attenuate storm surges, reduce shoreline erosion, and grow vertically with ...

Four complete mitochondrial genomes of Saurogobio fishes (Cypriniformes: Gobionidae)
In this study, we determined complete mitochondrial genomes of Saurogobio gracilicaudatus, S. xiangjiangensis, S. gymnocheilus, and S. lissilabris so that these data could contribute to reconstruct interspecific phylogenetic relationships within the ...

The influence of large rivers on the Subei littoral plain area requires more research than the results that have been available up to now. Thus, specific diagnostic indices of detrital mica are successfully applied for the first time to identify the ...

Higher meadow connectivity leads to greater plant species richness but also increases plant community similarity. Functional connectivity explains plant diversity patterns better than structural connectivity. ABSTRACT The increasing global habitat fragmentation has led to a marked decline in landscape connectivity, posing a severe threat to ...

ABSTRACT Coastal wetlands are critical blue carbon sinks, yet their spatiotemporal dynamics under environmental change remain insufficiently quantified. Taking the Yellow River Delta (YRD) as a natural laboratory, this study synthesizes multi‐source remote sensing data, including optical and radar imagery spanning from 1984 to 2023, to explore the ...
