Regulation of surface carbon dioxide distributions and air–sea fluxes by temperature, biology, and mixing along the North American Atlantic Coastal Ocean Margin - Zelun Wu; Xinyu Li; Zhangxian Ouyang; Wei‐Jun Cai (Limnology and Oceanography, 2025)
The North American Atlantic Coastal Ocean Margin (NAACOM) was recognized as an atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) sink, with large uncertainties in its northern areas due to complex dynamics in controlling the spatiotemporal variability of surface partial pressure of CO 2 ( p CO 2 ) and limited p CO 2 observations. Here, we used a regional reconstructed product to investigate the spatial and seasonal variability of p CO 2 and air–sea CO 2 fluxes across the region during 1993–2021. Decomposition of p CO 2 variability reveals temperature as the primary driver in southern sub‐regions (Gulf of Mexico, South and Mid Atlantic Bight), while both thermal and nonthermal processes dominate in the north (Gulf of Maine, Scotian Shelf, Gulf of St. Lawrence, and Grand Banks), with winter deep mixing leading to p CO 2 elevation, and spring phytoplankton production significantly influencing p CO 2 drawdown. These regional differences in local dynamics result in greater air–sea CO 2 disequilibrium in the north, driving larger seasonal p CO 2 amplitudes, and a pronounced south‐to‐north decreasing gradient. We identified the entire region as a CO 2 sink, with fluxes of −0.63 ± 0.19 and −0.60 ± 0.21 mol C m −2 yr −1 (10.14 ± 3.00 and 24.24 ± 8.31 Tg C yr −1 ), respectively, in the narrow (depth 2 uptake is 61% lower than previous reports. This 29‐yr analysis elucidates the drivers of p CO 2 variability across the diverse NAACOM, highlighting the importance of regional p CO 2 products for improving coastal carbon systems projections in a changing climate.

Distribution and Relationship of Radionuclides and Heavy Metal Concentrations in Marine Sediments from the Areas Surrounding the Daya Bay Power Plant, Southeast China - Chengpeng Huang; Yunpeng Lin; Haidong Li; Binxin Zheng; Xueqiang Zhu; Yiming Xu; Heshan Lin; Qiangqiang Zhong; Fangfang Shu; Mingjiang Cai; Yunhai Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2025)
Radionuclides and heavy metals pose potential risks to marine ecosystems and human health. Daya Bay, the site of China’s first commercial nuclear power plant, has experienced significant anthropogenic impacts, yet the extent of radionuclide and heavy metal contamination remains unclear. Nineteen surface sediment samples were collected in January 2024 and analyzed for natural (210Pb, 228Th, 226Ra, 228Ra, and 40K) and anthropogenic (137Cs) radionuclides, heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Cr, Mn, Hg, and As), grain size, and total organic carbon (TOC). The surface sediments of Daya Bay were predominantly fine-grained, with TOC levels ranging from 0.41% to 1.83%, influenced significantly by riverine input from the Dan’ao River. Natural radionuclides exhibited distinct spatial patterns: 210Pb and 228Th activity levels were higher in fine-grained sediments, and correlated with TOC, indicating adsorption and sedimentation controls. In contrast, anthropogenic 137Cs activity was low and showed no significant impact from the nuclear power plant. Notably, the absence in the samples of key anthropogenic radionuclides typically associated with nuclear power plant operations further confirmed the negligible impact of the power plant on local sediment contamination. The results indicated that the baseline levels of both natural and anthropogenic radionuclides and heavy metals were predominantly influenced by natural processes and local anthropogenic activities rather than the operation of the nuclear power plant. This study establishes critical baselines for radioactivity and heavy metals in Daya Bay, underscoring effective pollution control measures and the resilience of local ecosystems despite anthropogenic pressures.

Spatiotemporal impact of mesoscale eddies on chlorophyll-a concentration in the North Atlantic - Jinghui Cai; Jialong Sun; Siyuan Qin; Yaonan Li (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2025)
Introduction Mesoscale eddies play a crucial role in energy transport and ecological regulation in the North Atlantic Ocean. Methods Based on multi-source datasets, including satellite remote sensing and Argo float observations from 2009 to 2018, this study employs the Velocity Gradient Detection (VGD) method to identify eddy boundaries and cores, in combination with a spatiotemporal dynamic matching technique, to systematically analyze eddy characteristics and their impacts on chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentrations. Results Results show that eddy activity is predominantly concentrated in the Gulf Stream extension region (24°N–48°N, 40°W–60°W). Cyclonic eddies significantly elevate surface Chl-a concentrations (0.6–1.8 mg/m³) through upwelling processes, while anticyclonic eddies induce localized enrichment (15%–25% increase) along their peripheries, exhibiting marked seasonal variability. Vertical analysis reveals that eddy-induced Chl-a anomalies can peak at depths of 50–70 m, effectively enhancing subsurface primary productivity. Overall, eddy-driven Chl-a variations contribute approximately 20% to regional primary production. Discussion These findings highlight the functional importance of mesoscale eddies in regulating phytoplankton biomass and underscore their role in advancing our understanding of the marine carbon cycle under changing climate conditions.

Graph-theoretical investigation of trajectory dynamics and size characteristics in tropical cyclones - Yixiang Wang; Jiayao Wang; Yu Chang; Kang Cai; Sunwei Li; You Dong (Natural Hazards, 2025)
The intensification of climate changes has led to increased tropical cyclone (TC) intensities and subsequent damage, emphasizing the critical need for accurate trajectory prediction to mitigate their impact. In this study, a graph-theory-based approach was employed for the identification of TC trajectory. Using reanalysis data, each targeted TC can be constructed as a graph during its TC lifetime. Four graph metrics are computed from each graph constructed using different data sources, including mean sea level pressure, wind speed, and total precipitation. Among the graphs constructed, those representing mean sea level pressure (MSLP) and wind speed at 10 m (WD10) graphs show superior advantages in identifying TC trajectory. Furthermore, the metric PageRank of MSLP graph even reveals a notable ability to estimate TC size. Comparisons with a similar graph-theoretical approach demonstrate that our method exhibits superior performance in capturing complex TC dynamics. We anticipate to integrating the graph-theory-based approach into machine learning models to enhance the accuracy of predicting TC trajectories and intensities in future studies.

Protein Kinase C Epsilon Overexpression Protects the Heart Against Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity Via Activating SIRT1 - Danyong Liu; Chunyan Wang; Yao Chen; Xiaolei Huang; Yajie Wen; Shan Duan; Yin Cai; Xia Li; Jianfeng He; Kaijia Han; Ting Li; Yuantao Li; et al. (Cardiovascular Toxicology, 2025)
Doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) is known to be associated with reduction of cardiac protein kinase C epsilon (PKC-ε). PKC-ε promotes cell survival and protects hearts against various stresses. However, it is unclear whether or not the reduction in cardiac PKC-ε expression plays a causal role in DIC and in particular the potential underlying mechanism whereby PKC-ε may protect against DIC. C57BL/6 mice (8–10-week-old) were either treated with DOX administered intraperitoneally for a duration of 4 weeks to produce cardiotoxicity, or untreated in which mice received the same volume of saline. In vitro, neonatal rat ventricle cardiomyocytes were exposed to DOX for 24 h in the absence or presence of adenovirus overexpressing PKC-ε. Cardiomyocytes in a subgroup were treated with sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) selective inhibitor Ex527. Four weeks after DOX, cardiac contractile function was decreased concomitant with increased serum CK-MB and LDH levels as well as increases in Bax-to-Bcl-2 ratio and Cleaved Caspase 3 proteins expression, while PKC-ε and Sirt1 protein expressions were significantly decreased. In vitro, DOX reduced cardiomyocyte PKC-ε and SIRT1 protein expression, decreased cardiomyocyte viability, and increased LDH release with concomitant increases in oxidative stress and apoptosis. These changes were attenuated by overexpression of PKC-ε. IP study showed that PKC-ε could directly or indirectly bind SIRT1 in cardiomyocytes, and the protect effects of PKC-ε were further canceled by SIRT1 inhibition. In conclusion, activating SIRT1 may represent a major mechanism whereby PKC-ε protects the heart against DOX-induced cell apoptosis and oxidative stress. Graphical Abstract Dox induces cardiotoxicity via inhibiting PKC-epsilon/Sirt1 signaling which can be reversed by PKC-epsilon overexpression.

Identification of Hub Genes in Liver Hepatocellular Carcinoma Based on Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis - Jiawei Sun; Zizhen Zhang; Jiaru Cai; Xiaoping Li; Xiaoling Xu (Biochemical Genetics, 2025)
Liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC) is a malignant cancer with high incidence and poor prognosis. To investigate the correlation between hub genes and progression of LIHC and to provided potential prognostic markers and therapy targets for LIHC. Our study mainly used The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) LIHC database and the gene expression profiles of GSE54236 from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) to explore the differential co-expression genes between LIHC and normal tissues. The differential co-expression genes were extracted by Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) and differential gene expression analysis methods. The Genetic Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) were carried out to annotate the function of differential genes. Then the hub genes were validated using protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. And the expression level and prognostic analysis were performed. The probable associations between the expression of hub genes and both tumor purity and infiltration of immune cells were explored by TIMER. A total of 68 differential co-expression genes were extracted. These genes were mainly enriched in complement activation (biological process), collagen trimer (cellular component), carbohydrate binding and receptor ligand activity (molecular function) and cytokine − cytokine receptor interaction. Then we demonstrated that the 10 hub genes (CFP, CLEC1B, CLEC4G, CLEC4M, FCN2, FCN3, PAMR1 and TIMD4) were weakly expressed in LIHC tissues, the qRT-PCR results of clinical samples showed that six genes were significantly downregulated in LIHC patients compared with adjacent tissues. Worse overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in LIHC patients were associated with the lower expression of CFP, CLEC1B, FCN3 and TIMD4. Ten hub genes had positive association with tumor purity. CFP, CLEC1B, FCN3 and TIMD4 could serve as novel potential molecular targets for prognosis prediction in LIHC.

Impact of Rising CO 2 on Food Security and Human Health Risks and Potential Adaptation Strategies - Dongming Wang; Josep Peñuelas; Ye Tao; Irakli Loladze; Chuang Cai; Lian Song; Jinbo Zhang; Guangbin Zhang; Yu Wang; Wei Zhou; Qinfen Li; Chunwu Zhu (Global Change Biology, 2025)
Decades of Free Air CO 2 Enrichment (FACE) experiments show that projected atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) increases significantly influence crop systems, impacting food security. Firstly, elevated CO 2 (eCO 2 ) benefits global C 3 crop yields, despite substantial genetic variation. Lower‐than‐expected rice yield increases highlight the potential to augment the CO 2 fertilization effect (CFE) by enhancing nitrogen (N) uptake to facilitate carbon (C) assimilation. Secondly, CFE consistently correlates with declining nutritional quality. Concomitant CO 2 and temperature increases synergistically elevate toxic arsenic (As) in rice grain, projecting substantial cancer case increases in major rice‐consuming countries. This assessment underscores the urgency for strategies mitigating nutrient decline and As exposure from near‐term climate change. Thirdly, current estimates suggest long‐term eCO 2 minimally impacts soil N availability. However, risks include decreasing soil phosphate (P) availability and intensifying greenhouse gas emissions (methane [CH 4 ], nitrous oxide [N 2 O]), challenging food security sustainability. Fourthly, global food security inequity will likely worsen. Poorer regions, often heavily reliant on few cereal crops and affected by climate variability and uneven resource distribution, are more vulnerable to eCO 2 . Thus, implementing diverse, region‐specific adaptation strategies—encompassing agronomic management, crop breeding, and policymaking—is crucial for establishing climate‐resilient agricultural ecosystems.

Evolutionary origins override contemporary environmental filtering in shaping terrestrial algae diversity - Shuyin Li; Qingyi Luo; Qinghua Cai; Ming‐Chih Chiu; Vincent H. Resh (Ecology, 2025)
An understanding of mechanisms that influence biogeographical patterns can play a pivotal role in deciphering the intricate dynamics underlying species distributions and, ultimately, biodiversity patterns. Biodiversity composition results from both evolutionary origins and contemporary processes. However, how this combination jointly shapes biodiversity patterns and operates through mechanistic links to real‐world evidence generally has been overlooked. Using the information on microalgae that comprise the phyllosphere biota that grow on the surface of the leaves of terrestrial plants in China, we quantitatively evaluate the role of contemporary and phylogenetic processes in influencing species adaptability and their persistence across landscapes. Through biodiversity modeling, this study separates the effects of phylogenetic and contemporary factors affecting the community structure of these algal communities. Results demonstrate that the evolutionary history of these terrestrial algae can exert a dominant influence over contemporary filtering of environmental processes in shaping species diversity and community structure. These results underscore the significance of integrating evolutionary origins into biodiversity modeling to more accurately understand current biodiversity patterns and, therefore, facilitate more effective biodiversity management and ecosystem conservation efforts.

Prediction and analysis of China’s coastal marine economy: an innovative grey model with the best-matching data-preprocessing techniques - Zerong Wang; Zhijian Cai; Yao Li (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2025)
China’s coastal marine economy, a key part of the national economy, exhibits complex temporal evolution and regional heterogeneity, posing challenges for accurate forecasting. To address these challenges, this study employs advanced data-preprocessing techniques, accumulating generation operators (AGO) in grey prediction models, to tackle the nonlinear, volatile, and heterogeneous gross ocean product (GOP) data. Specifically, an accumulating generation operator matching mechanism that utilizes a pool of seven advanced AGOs is incorporated into the discrete grey prediction model. The proposed best-matching discrete grey prediction model can accurately describe the GOP system in China’s 11 coastal provinces. Furthermore, the experimental results indicate that the proposed model achieves 5.09% average forecasting mean absolute percentage error, demonstrating 46.65% and 61.73% improvement rates over the single AGO-based and benchmark models, respectively. Consequently, the proposed model is deployed to forecast China’s provincial GOP up to 2025, offering insights into the national development strategies, regionally tailored policies, and inter-provincial coordination in the marine sector.

Seasonal and spatial variations of nutrients and environmental effects under anthropogenic influence in Daya Bay, China - Jincheng Zhao; Jiawei He; Cai Li; Zeming Yang; Cong Liu; Xianqing Zhang; Min Qin; Dejing Tang; Wen Zhou; Zhantang Xu; Yuanyue Cheng (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2025)
Nutrients are crucial factors for the growth of phytoplankton, and their biogeochemical processes directly impact marine biodiversity. In this study, based on two cruise observations in spring and summer of 2024, the seasonal and spatial variations of nutrients, chlorophyll a, and other ecological indicators in Daya Bay were explored. The results indicated that the average concentrations of dissolved inorganic nitrogen and silicate were 3.61 ± 3.99 µM and 26.27 ± 13.91 µM in summer, respectively, compared with 2.48 ± 1.53 µM and 23.8 ± 6.77 µM in spring. The average concentration of dissolved inorganic phosphate was 0.29 ± 0.12 µM in summer, lower than 0.32 ± 0.09 µM in spring. The stoichiometric proportion among nutrients at most monitoring stations were far from Redfield ratio, and a succession from N-limited to P-limited was observed. A transformation has been observed in the dominant composition of dissolved inorganic nitrogen, shifting from ammonia to total oxidized nitrogen as the main component, which is mainly attributable to the decrease in aquaculture activities in Daya Bay over the last 3 years. In addition, the warm wastewater discharge from nuclear power stations directly influences the distribution of phytoplankton in the surrounding areas. This study provides timely information regarding recent shifts in ecological indicators and is significant to the ecological protection, environmental management, and policy adjustment in Daya Bay.

Cadmium dominance in heavy metal pollution: ecological risks and human health implications in the Guan River Estuary, China - Wenjian Xu; Kun Meng; Wen Du; Zican Cai; Yanxia Li; Xiang Chen; Yimin Zhang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2025)
Estuarine ecosystems are vulnerable to anthropogenic heavy metal pollution. This study examines cadmium (Cd) dominance in pollution and its ecological/human health impacts in China's Guanhe Estuary, a region heavily influenced by land-based inputs. Concentrations of six heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Cr, As) were measured in sediments and muscle tissues of 12 marine species across 11 sampling sites using atomic absorption and fluorescence spectrometry. Ecological risks were evaluated via pollution load index (PLI), geo-accumulation index (Igeo), and potential ecological risk index (E RI ). Health risks were assessed using target hazard quotient (THQ) and hazard index (HI). The results showed that the sediment concentrations of Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Cr, and As were 16.75±2.25, 8.39±0.91, 55.15±5.18, 0.10±0.01, 64.64±3.22, and 11.92±0.99 mg/kg, respectively. PLI and E RI indicated moderate pollution and low ecological risk, and Cd emerged as the primary pollutant and risk to ecology, based on its high Igeo and Er indices. Bioaccumulation analysis revealed that marine invertebrates, such as crabs, shrimps, and edible molluscs, accumulated higher concentrations of heavy metals, particularly Cd, compared to fish. Health risk assessments indicated no significant non-carcinogenic risks to local residents (THQ/HI < 1) for most metal species. Cd dominates due to human activities like agricultural/industrial runoff and high bioavailability in fine sediments. Despite low health risks, Cd hotspots near Liezikou Estuary and the double jetty need stricter controls and monitoring. These findings highlight Cd as a key contaminant, informing global estuary cleanup efforts.

Combining Cirrus and Aerosol Corrections for Improved Reflectance Retrievals over Turbid Waters from Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite Data - Bo-Cai Gao; Rong-Rong Li; Marcos J. Montes; Sean C. McCarthy (Oceans, 2025)
The multi-band atmospheric correction algorithms, now referred to as remote sensing reflectance (Rrs) algorithms, have been implemented on a NASA computing facility for global remote sensing of ocean color and atmospheric aerosol parameters from data acquired with several satellite instruments, including the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on board the Suomi spacecraft platform. These algorithms are based on the 2-band version of the SeaWiFS (Sea-Viewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor) algorithm. The bands centered near 0.75 and 0.865 μm are used for atmospheric corrections. In order to obtain high-quality Rrs values over Case 1 waters (deep clear ocean waters), strict masking criteria are implemented inside these algorithms to mask out thin clouds and very turbid water pixels. As a result, Rrs values are often not retrieved over bright Case 2 waters. Through our analysis of VIIRS data, we have found that spatial features of bright Case 2 waters are observed in VIIRS visible band images contaminated by thin cirrus clouds. In this article, we describe methods of combining cirrus and aerosol corrections to improve spatial coverage in Rrs retrievals over Case 2 waters. One method is to remove cirrus cloud effects using our previously developed operational VIIRS cirrus reflectance algorithm and then to perform atmospheric corrections with our updated version of the spectrum-matching algorithm, which uses shortwave IR (SWIR) bands above 1 μm for retrieving atmospheric aerosol parameters and extrapolates the aerosol parameters to the visible region to retrieve water-leaving reflectances of VIIRS visible bands. Another method is to remove the cirrus effect first and then make empirical atmospheric and sun glint corrections for water-leaving reflectance retrievals. The two methods produce comparable retrieved results, but the second method is about 20 times faster than the spectrum-matching method. We compare our retrieved results with those obtained from the NASA VIIRS Rrs algorithm. We will show that the assumption of zero water-leaving reflectance for the VIIRS band centered at 0.75 μm (M6) over Case 2 waters with the NASA Rrs algorithm can sometimes result in slight underestimates of water-leaving reflectances of visible bands over Case 2 waters, where the M6 band water-leaving reflectances are actually not equal to zero. We will also show conclusively that the assumption of thin cirrus clouds as ‘white’ aerosols during atmospheric correction processes results in overestimates of aerosol optical thicknesses and underestimates of aerosol Ångström coefficients.
