Characterization of dissolved organic matter processing between surface sediment porewater and overlying bottom water in the Yangtze River Estuary
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 …

Nitrogen from agriculture and temperature as the major drivers of deoxygenation in the central Bohai Sea
Agricultural N losses strongly dominate the N delivery (average 72% of total N delivery to
rivers in the period 1980–2010) in the rivers discharging into the Bohai Sea, a semi …

Water oxygen consumption rather than sediment oxygen consumption drives the variation of hypoxia on the East China Sea shelf
Sediment oxygen consumption (SOC) is important in modulating the oxygen budget in the
East China Sea where seasonal hypoxia occurs. Porewater advection, molecular diffusion …
