A regional synthesis of organic carbon (OC) burial was conducted using a comprehensive
data set to reveal some of the key drivers and human multi‐stressors controlling OC burial …

The accumulation of organic carbon (OC) in the sediments of river-dominated continental
margins plays a critical role in the global carbon budget and is subject to human …

Abstract The Yellow River is one of the largest suppliers of sediments and organic carbon
(OC) to the ocean. Previous studies have revealed that OC transported by the Yellow River …

Worldwide dam building in large river basins has substantially altered the carbon cycle by
trapping much of the riverine transported particulate organic carbon (POC) in terrestrial …

Marginal seas are estimated to account for up to 90% of organic carbon (OC) burial in
marine sediments, and thus play an important role in global carbon cycle. However …

Sediment and carbon budgets were constructed for the East China Sea (ECS) Shelf based
on up‐to‐date data. The total annual sediment flux in the ECS Shelf is approximately 96% of …

River damming reduces sediment load in rivers, leading to instability and erosion of coastal
deltas; this is a global issue in many large-river delta-front estuaries (LDEs). The total …

Burial of terrestrial organic carbon (OC terr) in marginal sea sediments is a key component
of the carbon cycle, exerting long-term influence on atmospheric CO 2 and climate …

Sediments deposited in subtropical deltas and continental shelves are the “recorders” of
sources, transport processes, and accumulation of organic carbon (OC) at the land-ocean …

Understanding the sources and fate of organic matter (OM) sequestered in continental
margin sediments is of importance because the mode and efficiency of OM burial impact the …
