Dissolved organic matter (DOM) exchange in the sediment-water interface of estuaries is
essential for the global elemental cycle. To clarify the interface DOM processing, this study …

Plastics are an important new component of the global sedimentary system, and much
concern exists about their transport, fate and impact. This study presents the first system …

Public awareness of microplastics and their widespread presence throughout most bodies of
water are increasingly documented. The accumulation of microplastics in the ocean …

Landward migration of coastal ecosystems in response to sea-level rise is altering coastal
carbon dynamics. Although such landscapes rapidly accumulate soil carbon, barrier-island …

Recent research has shown that inland water—including rivers, lakes, and groundwater—
may play some role in carbon cycling, although the extent of its contribution has remained …

Net primary production (NPP) plays an important role in estuarine carbon cycling, which has
been increasingly impacted by human activities and global climate change. Spatiotemporal …

River deltas have contributed to the regulation of atmospheric CO 2 concentrations
throughout Earth's history, but the capacity and controlling factors for deltas to serve as …

Total organic carbon (TOC) in lake sediments from upstream catchments is deposited and
buried in substrate, recording historical environmental changes. However, the linkage …

Estuaries are important components of the global carbon cycle; exchanging carbon between
aquatic, atmospheric, and terrestrial environments, representing important loci for blue …

China's ponds, which have proliferated in number due to agricultural expansion and
population growth, serve as both carbon sinks and sources due to large nutrient influxes …
