Where carbon goes when water flows: carbon cycling across the aquatic continuum
The purpose of this review is to highlight progress in unraveling carbon cycling dynamics
across the continuum of landscapes, inland waters, coastal oceans, and the atmosphere …

Estuarine and Coastal Ocean Carbon Paradox: CO2 Sinks or Sites of Terrestrial Carbon Incineration?
WJ Cai - Annual review of marine science, 2011 - annualreviews.org
Estuaries are a major boundary in the land-ocean interaction zone where organic carbon
(OC) and nutrients are being processed, resulting in a high water-to-air carbon dioxide …

Air–sea exchanges of CO2 in the world's coastal seas
The air–sea exchanges of CO 2 in the world's 165 estuaries and 87 continental shelves are
evaluated. Generally and in all seasons, upper estuaries with salinities of less than two are …

Molecular-level changes of dissolved organic matter along the Amazon River-to-ocean continuum
Coastal oceans link terrestrial and marine carbon cycles. Yet, carbon sources and sinks in
these biomes remain poorly understood. Here, we explore the dynamics of dissolved …

Overlooked riverine contributions of dissolved neodymium and hafnium to the Amazon estuary and oceans
Abstract The Amazon River accounts for 20% of global freshwater runoff and supplies vital
trace metals to the Atlantic Ocean. Suspended particles within its plume are thought to …

Amazon River enhances diazotrophy and carbon sequestration in the tropical North Atlantic Ocean
A Subramaniam, PL Yager… - Proceedings of the …, 2008 - National Acad Sciences
The fresh water discharged by large rivers such as the Amazon is transported hundreds to
thousands of kilometers away from the coast by surface plumes. The nutrients delivered by …

Why are some marginal seas sources of atmospheric CO2?
The contemporary coastal ocean, characterized by abundant nutrients and high primary
productivity, is generally seen as a significant CO2 sink at the global scale. However …

The pathways and properties of the Amazon River Plume in the tropical North Atlantic Ocean
The Amazon River Plume spreads across the tropical North Atlantic creating a barrier to
vertical mixing. Here using a 1/6° HYCOM model and data from three research cruises in …

Carbon dioxide emissions along the lower Amazon River
A large fraction of the organic carbon derived from land that is transported through inland
waters is decomposed along river systems and emitted to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide …

[HTML][HTML] Oceanic outgassing and biological production hotspots induced by pre-industrial river loads of nutrients and carbon in a global modeling approach
Rivers are a major source of nutrients, carbon and alkalinity to the global ocean. In this
study, we firstly estimate pre-industrial riverine loads of nutrients, carbon and alkalinity …
