Estuaries are biogeochemical hot spots because they receive large inputs of nutrients and
organic carbon from land and oceans to support high rates of metabolism and primary …

We describe how global models can be used to analyze past and future trends in nutrient
export from watersheds and how such models can be used to analyze causes and effects of …

We present a global model that describes the fate of nitrogen (N) from point and nonpoint
sources in the hydrological system up to the river mouths at the 0.5° by 0.5° spatial and …

The significance of salinity in shaping bacterial communities dwelling in estuarine areas has
been well documented. However, the influences of other environmental factors such as …

Abstract Downstream from metropolitan Paris (France), a large amount of ammonium is
discharged into the Seine River by the effluents of the wastewater treatment plant at …

The diversity and spatio-temporal distribution of ammonia-oxidizing Archaea (AOA) and
Bacteria (AOB) were investigated along a salinity gradient in sediments of the …

Based on our multiple year observations during 2000–2008 in the Pearl River Estuary, this
study sought to synthesize the long-term pattern of hypoxia and its relationship to organic …

We investigated the distribution, degradation and dynamics of organic carbon and its major
compound classes, carbohydrates and amino acids, based upon a cruise in the Pearl River …

ABSTRACT The Seine River is strongly affected by the effluents from the Achères
wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) downstream of the city of Paris. We have shown that the …

The sensitivity of oxygen depletion in turbid estuaries to parameters like freshwater
discharge, depth, and sediment availability is investigated using an idealized model. The …
