In 2017, Hurricane Maria made direct landfall on LPG just below category 5 strength, providing the opportunity to revisit the site to improve upon interpretations of storm-induced deposition. Maria caused widespread wave-induced overwash of the barrier beach and extensive mangrove mortality with roughly a 40% reduction in vegetative cover along the barrier. Sediment trapping and overwash deposition occurred within ripped up and broken mangrove debris during the hurricane, which prevented sediments from being carried further landward into the lagoon. Thus, no measurable overwash deposition was observed in the larger, western portion of the lagoon where previous hurricane reconstructions are derived. Significant overwash deposition (1–27 cm thick) was observed in the smaller, eastern portion of the lagoon where human cut paths through the mangroves allowed for unobstructed flow. Early historical photos support 53% reduced vegetation in 1936 followed by revegetation towards present day that prevented sandy overwash deposits from Maria in the western side, explaining the discrepancy between previously observed hurricane overwash record compared to restricted deposition solely to locations with modern footpaths for Maria. Hurricanes occurring during the recovery-revegetation phase of such storms likely result in greater overwash deposition in back-barrier lagoons due to less barrier vegetation relative to periods with robust mangrove vegetation cover. Results highlight the important role of fringing mangrove forests in flood mitigation, and the vulnerability of back-barrier environments to enhanced flooding following both anthropogenic and event-driven vegetation loss.</p>","PeriodicalId":11921,"journal":{"name":"Estuaries and Coasts","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141947250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hypoxia responses to nutrient loading and climate change have been extensively studied in large systems like the Chesapeake Bay and the Baltic Sea, while fewer studies have investigated smaller, shallower hypoxic zones. Thus, an improved understanding of the interactions of eutrophication and warming on hypoxia expansion (or reduction) in the wide variety of different estuarine environments is needed. We examined interannual controls on oxygen depletion in the Patuxent River estuary, a eutrophic sub-estuary of Chesapeake Bay where seasonal hypoxia develops annually. We conducted a spatial and temporal analysis of dissolved oxygen (DO) trends, timing, and several metrics of depletion over a long-term record (1985–2021). We found an internally generated hypoxic zone that initiates in the middle estuary, spreading upstream and downstream as the summer progresses, and that hypoxic volume days (HVD) have been increasing (0.11 per year, <i>p</i> = 0.03) over the record despite reduced watershed nitrogen loads and stable phosphorus loads. River flow and temperature have been increasing and are major drivers of increased HVD, with river flow explaining 40% of the interannual variation in HVD (temperature has increased 0.03 and 0.06 °C per year in summer and fall, respectively). Apparent oxygen utilization (AOU) is increasing in bottom waters in the fall, consistent with increasing trends of both water temperature and stratification strength. HVD was negatively related (<i>r</i><sup>2</sup> = 0.34, slope = −0.59*HVD) to the biomass of benthic invertebrates in the middle region of the estuary, suggesting that benthic forage for higher trophic levels will be limited by sustained hypoxia.

From April through June during our dock sampling, calls were detected across almost all our sampled dates and often every hour of the day, with daily and diel fluctuations in call occurrence. In our seagrass meadow sampling, call occurrence showed some positive correlation with manatee grass (<i>Syringodium filiforme</i>) and salinity. Moreover, snapshot recordings as short as 5 min were sufficient to detect calls in 37 of our 45 sampling events compared to only five where trawls captured Gulf toadfish.

This is particularly true in Guinea-Bissau, where the tidal range is the highest of any country in West Africa, affecting several socio-economic sectors such as agriculture and urban development. Here, we present a selection of coastal bathymetry datasets available for generally poorly sampled coastal regions. These include the General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO), digital nautical charts (CMAP), and depth retrieval from satellite wave detection (S2Shores). While GEBCO provides the right regional envelope of bathymetry, the coastal zone is plagued with random bumpiness at scales below 10 km (“orange peel” texture). S2Shores can be used to correct these errors and instead reveal the presence of small-scale channels, reminiscent of very high-resolution satellite color images. These structures are also confirmed by nautical charts, which show the channels to be well correlated but deeper than that indicated by the satellite retrieval (with a 40% higher variance, and 40 m instead of 20 m for Orango, the main and deepest channel). Simulations with a coastal ocean hydro-sedimentary model (CROCO) further show that submerged rivers can help drive a smooth flow of tidal energy into the main estuary of Guinea-Bissau. Tidal energy flux is better channeled in the CMAP and S2shores cases, while GEBCO produces an order of magnitude greater form drag, resulting in a stronger response from the sediment bed. Tides therefore have the effect of smoothing bathymetry along fine-scale channels, minimizing friction on the way to equilibrium. This result highlights the potential of combining different approaches to estimate updated coastal bathymetry and its effect on coastal dynamics in the most challenging areas.</p>","PeriodicalId":11921,"journal":{"name":"Estuaries and Coasts","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141777978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tidal inputs play a dominant role in salt marsh porewater mixing, and terrestrially derived freshwater inputs are increasingly recognized as important sources of water and solutes to intertidal wetlands. However, there remains a critical gap in understanding the role of freshwater inputs on salt marsh hydrology, and how this may impact marsh subsurface salinity and plant productivity. Here, we address this knowledge gap by examining the hydrologic behavior, porewater salinity, and pickleweed (<i>Sarcocornia pacifica</i> also known as <i>Salicornia pacifica)</i> plant productivity along a salt marsh transect in an estuary along the central coast of California. Through the installation of a suite of hydrometric sensors and routine porewater sampling and vegetation surveys, we sought to understand how seasonal changes in terrestrial freshwater inputs impact salt marsh ecohydrologic processes. We found that salt marsh porewater salinity, shallow subsurface saturation, and pickleweed productivity are closely coupled with elevated upland water level during the winter and spring, and more influenced by tidal inputs during the summer and fall. This seasonal response indicates a switch in salt marsh hydrologic connectivity with the terrestrial upland that impacts ecosystem functioning. Through elucidating the interannual impacts of drought on salt marsh hydrology, we found that the severity of drought and historical precipitation can impact contemporary hydrologic behavior and the duration and timing of the upland-marsh hydrologic connectivity. This implies that the sensitivity of salt marshes to climate change involves a complex interaction between sea level rise and freshwater inputs that vary at seasonal to interannual timescales.\u0000</p>","PeriodicalId":11921,"journal":{"name":"Estuaries and Coasts","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141777981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dynamic faunal bioturbation or bioirrigation behavior would also result in corresponding variation in SOD values on short time scales. In situ flow-through benthic metabolism chambers were used to measure SOD at a high temporal resolution in discrete sediment patches. Sediments with more macroinfauna had greater average SOD over the diel cycle, consistent with previous studies. Where more macroinfauna were present, they drove greater SOD during nightly low oxygen, presumably by enhancing their burrowing and irrigation activities. SOD was also more variable on a sub-diel timescale in sediments with more macroinfauna. Sediment oxygen demand is dynamic and highly sensitive both temporally, on very short timescales, and spatially, in terms of resident fauna, and their interaction produces heretofore unaccounted complexity in patterns of SOD particularly in shallow coastal systems.
