Sandy beaches are an important passage for the transport of various forms of nitrogen from land to sea. However, export fluxes of these forms of nitrogen and the mechanisms controlling their transformation remain elusive. Using the 224 Ra/ 228 Th disequilibrium approach, we estimated export fluxes of dissolved inorganic carbon and dissolved inorganic nitrogen at three intertidal sandy beaches with distinct slopes along the sou...

Tidal marshes serve as critical carbon (C) sinks, yet face increasing threats from global environmental changes. While previous research has documented how nitrogen (N) loading and sea‐level rise affect total C pools individually, their impacts on soil organic carbon (SOC) stabilization remain critically underexplored, particularly when these factors co‐occur in tidal marsh ecosystems. Through a 3‐yr field experiment, we analy...

From late November 2021, a large-scale Phaeocystis globosa bloom occurred for the first time in the southern Yellow Sea, covering an area of over 630 km 2 and lasting for nearly 40 days. Two investigations, combined with satellite remote sensing, were successively conducted on December 11 and 23, 2021 to study the bloom dynamics and impacts. During the bloom, the average temperature decreased from 11.8°C to 10.0°C and salinity...
