To analyze the dynamic response of a rigid M-shaped jumper subjected to combined internal and external flows, a one-way coupled fluid–structure interaction process is applied. First, CFD simulations are conducted separately for the internal and external fluid domains. The pressure histories on the inner and outer walls are exported and loaded into the finite element model using inverse distance interpolation. Then, FEA is perf...

As a response of the coastal oceans to more severe anthropogenic disturbance, increasing coastal primary production has been more frequently observed in recent years. This raises the question of how this progressive change reshapes the long-term carbon sequestration in the coastal oceans. With this question in mind, we investigated the sediment organic matter (OM) preserved on the shelf of the northern South China Sea (NSCS) w...

One of the key goals of ecology is to understand how communities are assembled. The species co‐existence theory suggests that community β‐diversity is influenced by species pool and community assembly processes, such as environmental filtering, dispersal events, ecological drift and biotic interactions. However, it remains unclear whether there are similar β‐diversity patterns among different soil microbial groups and whether...
