Abstract Reconstructing the Plio-Pleistocene sedimentary history of the Yellow Sea, is
important for understanding the long-term influence of the Yellow River (Huanghe) and/or …

Abstract The Po-Adriatic region offers an excellent case for reconstructing sediment
provenance and transport pathways of a multi-sourced sediment-routing system. Through a …

A predominant sigmoidal clinoform deposit extends from the Yangtze River mouth
southwards 800km along the Chinese coast. This clinoform is thickest (∼ 40m) between the …

X-ray diffraction (XRD) mineralogical and grain-size analyses indicate that inner continental
shelf sediments in the East China Sea (ECS) represent a unique mixing of clays derived …

The occurrence of pre-aged organic carbon (OC) in continental margin surface sediments is
a commonly observed phenomenon, yet the nature, sources, and causes of this aged OC …

Urban rivers constitute a major part of urban drainage systems, and play critical roles in
connecting other surface waters in urban areas. Black-odorous urban rivers are widely …

Heavy metal concentrations in surface sediments at 56 stations during two cruises in the
Yellow Sea in summer and winter, 2011 were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma-mass …

Organic UV stabilizers and UV filters are applied to industrial materials and cosmetics
worldwide. In plastics they prevent photo-induced degradation, while in cosmetics they …

Abstract Selected heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Zn, Cr, Cd, and As) in 47 river sediment samples
collected in the Jiaozhou Bay (JZB) catchment were evaluated to assess their spatial …

The distributions, annual sedimentation and atmospheric deposition flux of heavy metals
have been studied in sediments of the South Yellow Sea (SYS), in order to evaluate their …
