From September 2009 to August 2010, intensive monthly sampling of nutrients was conducted at two stations the mouth Changjiang (Yangtze River). Particulate organic carbon (POC), particulate nitrogen (PN), and their stable isotope values ( δ 13 C 15 N) were also measured in selected samples all months. Most (nitrate, phosphate, ammonia, nitrite) as well POC, PN, displayed peak when highest or lowest discharges occurred, suggesting strongly influence seasonal variations these chemicals. The...
A new technique involving large-volume (10 m3) samples of seawater was used to determine the abundance microplastics (MPs) in water column West Pacific Ocean and East Indian Ocean. Compared conventional sampling methods based on smaller volumes water, data yielded values for deep-water that were at least 1–2 orders magnitude lower. The suggested limited bulk currently surface are insufficient obtain accurate estimates MP deep water. Size distribution indicated lateral movement MPs into...
Planktonic copepods are the most abundant animals in ocean and key players global biochemical processes. Recent modeling suggests that zooplankton ingestion of microplastics (MPs) can disrupt biological carbon pump accelerate a loss oceanic oxygen. Here we investigate behavioral responses rates model feeding-current generating copepod when exposed to different characteristics by small-scale video observations bottle incubations. We found rejected 80% after touching them with their mouth...
Abstract Polyolefins consist of abundant hydrophobic C−C and C−H bonds, are considered as immensely potential untapped resources. Chemical upcycling offers a convenient promising recycling strategy polyolefins to produce newly‐functionalized polymeric materials, high‐value added chemicals. The significant progress made in functionalization reactions alkane molecules provides new opportunities for improving polyolefin treatments. This review focuses on recent advancements post‐modification...
Abstract Satellite estimation of chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration in the Changjiang Estuary is challenging for ocean-colour retrieval algorithms. The characterized by suspended-sediment-dominated waters mouth and optically complex case 2 offshore mouth. products show that high-sediment loads estuarine can cause overestimations or invalid flags Chl-a concentration. A synthetic chlorophyll index (SCI) was designed extracting information minimizing influence sediments on remote-sensing...
Seven cruises were conducted in the Changjiang (Yangtze River) Estuary and adjacent western East China Sea (ECS) from 2010 to 2012 study seasonal variations of δ13C δ15N suspended organic matter. In addition, two northeastern ECS July 2011 Tsushima Strait evaluate distribution patterns these isotopes over entire transport pathway. summer, surface was lowest Channel, increasing land sea, reaching highest values central ECS, then decreasing remaining relatively constant. winter, showed lower...
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are significant sources of microplastic (MP) emissions. In order to quantify the potential MP emission from WWTPs, a database more than 10,000 WWTPs in China with an estimated rate was built. The riverine retention after also based on Stokes' law for both fragments and fibers. results show that mass MPs discharged is (4.48 ± 7.48) × 107 kg, yet amount released untreated sewage (4.55 3.00) which comparable treated wastewater, indicating capacity wastewater...
Microplastic pollution has emerged as a global environmental concern. As filter-feeding organisms, marine mussels are particularly vulnerable to microplastics. Moreover, phthalic acid esters (PAEs) known leach from microplastics under various conditions. Among PAEs, bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is common endocrine disruptor. We investigated the effects of and plasticizers on reproductive function female mussel Mytilus coruscus. The results revealed that exposure DEHP high-density...
With the rapid increase in plastic production, microplastic pollution has become a critical concern marine ecosystems. This study investigates presence and potential impacts of microplastics within juvenile fish South China Sea, focusing on four economically significant species: Pennahia argentata, Larimichthys crocea, Sardinella melanura, Butis koilomatodon. Juvenile samples were collected, rigorous dissection microscopic analyses conducted to assess their digestive tracts. The incorporated...
