Rapid urbanization has been reported to affect carbon biogeochemical cycle of waterways,
contributing to even higher carbon dioxide (CO 2) outgassing from rivers to the atmosphere …

Phytoplankton elemental composition regulates the efficiency of energy and material
transfer in the interface between phytoplankton and their consumers. The ratio of particulate …

Mangroves are highly productive ecosystems that supply carbon and nutrients to the coastal
food web from autochthonous and allochthonous sources. The fluctuations in the quantity of …

Investigating the critical role of carbon cycling feedback to warming is essential for
understanding future biosphere development. One of the current challenges is that the …

We intend to assess how macrophyte cover affects planktonic microbial communities by
changing the physical and chemical environment, and how macrophyte-derived DOC affects …

Background The East-Asian Marginal Seas (EAMS), including the Yellow Sea, the East
China Sea, and the East Sea (Fig. 1), are regarded as one of the hot spots where rapid …

Heterotrophic bacterial production represents an important part of microbial food web
processes in marine ecosystems and plays a significant role in biogeochemical carbon …

The distribution and mechanisms of photosynthetically dissolved organic carbon (PDOC)
released by marine phytoplankton are frequently neglected and inadequately understood …

It is widely accepted that in many aquatic ecosystems bacterioplankton is dependent on and
regulated by organic carbon supplied by phytoplankton, leading to coupled algae-bacteria …

Particulate organic carbon (POC) and its variability were studied to assess the accuracy of
ocean colour retrieval algorithms over the eastern Arabian Sea (EAS) as it controls the …
