India's diverse vegetation and landscapes provide an opportunity to understand the
responses of vegetation to climate change. By examining pollen and fossil records along …

Blue carbon science requires the estimates of organic carbon stock and sequestration rate;
however, holistic data analysis remains limited in South Korea. The present study reports …

In coastal systems, the multiplicity of sources fueling the pool of particulate organic matter
(POM) leads to divergent estimations of POM composition. Eleven systems (two littoral …

The sources of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in coastal waters are diverse, and they play
different roles in the biogeochemistry and ecosystems of the ocean. In this study, we …

Sedimentary organic matters in the typical intertidal areas were investigated to address year-
round monthly distributions and site-specific sources. Target areas included four natural tidal …

Concentrations of heavy metals (HMs) and phenolic compounds with factors which
potentially affected their spatial distribution were investigated in mangrove sediments, South …

Estuarine wetland plays an important role in regulating global carbon cycle due to high
terrestrial carbon input and burial. However, it is unclear how the source and sequestration …

Elemental (total organic carbon (TOC) and total nitrogen (TN)) and stable carbon and
nitrogen isotope compositions (δ13C and δ15N, respectively) in the surface sediment of …

A multiproxy study involving bulk (TOC, δ 13 C org, grain size) and molecular (n-alkane
biomarkers) analyses is used to investigate surface sediments from the Mandovi estuary in …

Abstract Knowledge of the sources, distribution and fate of organic matter (OM) in estuarine
and adjacent shelf sediments are important for the understanding of the global …
