With rapid socio-economic development, China's coastal areas are among the fastest
growing and most economically dynamic regions in the world. Under the influence of climate …

Despite the relevance of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) for ocean
biogeochemistry, the microbial dimension of SGD remains poorly understood. SGD can …

Riverine and atmospheric inputs are often considered as the main terrestrial sources of
dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN), phosphorus (DIP), and silicon (DSi) in the ocean …

Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) can be a significant source of chemical pollutants
from land to ocean. Here, we first estimated SGD using radium isotopes and related nutrient …

Trace metal leachate comes from inactive mine reservoirs in the study area. The main
intention of the study was to analyze the metal content in groundwater samples around …

Coastal zones are dominated by economically important ecosystems, and excessive urban,
industrial, agricultural, and tourism activities can lead to rapid degradation of those habitats …

Subterranean estuaries extend inland into density-stratified coastal carbonate aquifers
containing a surprising diversity of endemic animals (mostly crustaceans) within a highly …

The arsenic (As)-bearing eutrophic waters may suffer from the dual conditions of harmful
algal blooms and release of As, driven by algal-induced hypoxia/anoxia. Here, we …

Continental shelves and shelf seas play a central role in the global carbon cycle. However,
their importance with respect to trace element and isotope (TEI) inputs to ocean basins is …

Ocean acidification (OA) has resulted in global-scale changes in ocean chemistry, which
can disturb marine organisms and ecosystems. Despite its extensively populated coastline …
