Abstract. We investigated the spatial distribution and seasonal variation of dissolved inorganic nitrogen in a large perturbed estuary, Pearl River Estuary, based on three cruises conducted winter (January 2005), summer (August 2005) spring (March 2006). On-site incubation was also carried out for determining ammonium nitrite oxidation rates (nitrification rates). observed year-round pattern dramatic decrease NH4+, increase NO3−, but insignificant change NO2− upper estuary at salinity ~0–5....
We examined the dynamics of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN, nitrate + nitrite), phosphorus (DIP), and silicate (Si(OH) 4 ) in northern shelf South China Sea summer, which is under a complex hydrodynamic scheme largely shaped by river plume coastal upwelling, along with enhanced biological consumption nutrients therein. The Pearl River plume, high nutrient concentrations (∼ 0.1–14.2 µmol L −1 for DIN, ∼ 0.02–0.10 DIP, 0.2–18.9 Si(OH) ), occupied large area middle (salinity < 33.5)....
A bstract The contemporary coastal ocean, characterized by abundant nutrients and high primary productivity, is generally seen as a significant CO 2 sink at the global scale. However, mechanistic understanding of ocean carbon cycle remains limited, leading to unanswered question why some systems are sources while others sinks atmospheric . Here we proposed distinct physical‐biogeochemical setting, Ocean‐dominated Margin (OceMar), in order for better shaping concept study. OceMars, contrast...
We examined diurnal variations of surface seawater p CO 2 (partial pressure ) in a suite coastal marine environmental systems the vicinity South China Sea (SCS) from inshore and nearshore settings Xiamen Bay, Shenhu southwestern Taiwan Strait, to offshore sites basin on slope northern as well coral reef system at Xisha Islands middle SCS. There were significant changes , ranging 1.0 Pa 1.6 (10‐16 µatm) oligotrophic sites, ~4.1 5.1‐15.2 Bay high 60.8 Islands. Processes that modulate these...

Abstract The Changjiang Estuary is a large bifurcated estuary where different hydrodynamic processes influence its South Branch compared to North Branch. the dominant pathway of River discharge, while shallower and narrower dominated by salt water intrusion, especially in dry season. Absorption fluorescence spectroscopy were measured along with dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations characterize properties matter (DOM) collected seasons during an extreme drought year 2011. refractory...
Abstract. Ocean acidification, a complex phenomenon that lowers seawater pH, is the net outcome of several contributions. They include dissolution increasing atmospheric CO2 adds up with dissolved inorganic carbon (dissolved CO2, H2CO3, HCO3−, and CO32−) generated upon mineralization primary producers (PP) organic matter (DOM). The aquatic processes leading to are substantially affected by increased DOM nutrients via terrestrial runoff, acidic rainfall, PP algal blooms, nitrification,...
Abstract While satellite remote sensing has become a very useful tool contributing to assessments of sea surface partial pressure carbon dioxide ( p CO 2 ) that subsequently allow quantification air‐sea flux, the application empirical approaches in coastal oceans proven challenging owing interaction multiple controlling factors. We propose “mechanistic semi‐analytic algorithm” (MeSAA) estimate river‐dominated using data. Observed can be analytically expressed as sum individual components...
Abstract. Based upon eight field surveys conducted between May 2011 and 2012, we investigated seasonal variations in pH, carbonate saturation state of aragonite (Ωarag), ancillary data on the Chinese side North Yellow Sea, a western Pacific continental margin major economic importance. Subsurface waters were CO2-undersaturated nearly equilibrium with atmospheric CO2 June. From July to October, fugacity (fCO2) bottom water gradually increased from 438 ± 44 μatm 630 84 μatm, pHT decreased 8.02...
Abstract The Bohai Sea to the west of North Yellow in Northwest Pacific is a semienclosed shallow‐water marginal sea on critical path eutrophication and environmental degradation. To better understand metabolism‐induced summertime dissolved oxygen (DO) decline acidification, eight field surveys were conducted between August 2011 September 2017, investigating seasonal interannual variations DO carbonate system parameters central Sea. historically lowest was recorded at 66 μmol O 2 /kg...
Taking the world's largest green tide caused by macroalga Ulva prolifera in South Yellow Sea as a natural case, it is studied here if macroalgae can perform inorganic carbon sequestration ocean. Massive released large amounts of organic carbon, most which were transformed microorganisms into dissolved (DIC). Nearshore field investigations showed that, along with seawater deoxygenation and acidification, both DIC total alkalinity (TAlk) increased significantly (both >50%) areas covered dense...
This paper presents the spatial distribution and seasonal changes of carbonate system CO 2 fluxes in a complex river‐estuary located subtropical region, Pearl River Estuary, based on five surveys covering primarily wet dry cycle two major subestuaries River, namely Lingdingyang Huangmaohai. Significant variations surface water partial pressure ( p ) were observable these subestuaries. While both Huangmaohai had higher their upper estuaries, which quickly decreased downstream as seen many...
