There is a perception that anthropogenically-driven changes in nutrient supply to coastal
waters influences the abundance, frequency and toxicity of harmful algal blooms (HABs) …

The epoch of the Anthropocene, a period during which human activity has been the
dominant influence on climate and the environment, has witnessed a decline in oxygen …

Phytoplankton blooms are dynamic phenomena of great importance to the functioning of
estuarine and coastal ecosystems. We analysed a unique (large) collection of phytoplankton …

Phosphorus underpins global food systems by ensuring soil fertility, farmer livelihoods,
agricultural productivity and global food security. Yet there is a lack of research and effective …

In this study, we conducted two cruises in the Bohai Bay (China) focusing on phytoplankton
community and relation to water quality. The evaluation revealed that most of the open area …

Under the influence of climate warming and human activities, many large lakes have
experienced an increase in eutrophication and algal blooms. Although these trends have …

Dissimilatory nitrate reduction processes, including denitrification, anaerobic ammonium
oxidation (ANAMMOX), and dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA), play an …

Two real-time PCR assays targeting the small-subunit (SSU) ribosomal DNA (rDNA) were
designed to assess the proportional biomass of diatoms and dinoflagellates in marine …

We analyzed the potential for eutrophication in major seas around China: the Bohai Gulf,
Yellow Sea and South China Sea. We model the riverine inputs of nitrogen (N), phosphorus …

Rapid economic development in China's Lake Taihu basin during the past four decades has
accelerated nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) loadings to the lake. This has caused a shift …
