Total dissolved Cu concentrations ranged from 3.4 nmol L<sup>−1</sup> in winter up to 25.8 nmol L<sup>−1</sup> in summer, with substantial summer increase limited to water layer above the halocline. Two distinct ligand classes were identified in all samples, with conditional stability constants of log<em>K</em>’<sub>1</sub> = 13.2 ± 0.5 and log<em>K</em>’<sub>2</sub> = 11.2 ± 0.4. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and concentrations of both ligand classes were higher in summer than in winter, with strong indications of their in situ production driven by enhanced primary production and/or intensified microbial activity. In winter, despite the low DOC levels (avg 63.3 μmol L<sup>−1</sup>), DOM above the halocline showed pronounced terrestrial signature with higher density of Cu-binding sites compared to DOM in summer with nearly twice as high DOC levels (avg 113.5 μmol L<sup>−1</sup>). The results suggest that terrestrial humic substances (HS) dominated the ligand pool in these waters during winter (estimated 80 % of total ligand pool), possibly contributing to both ligand classes. While HS remained an important fraction of the ligand pool in the summer (estimated 30 % of total ligand pool), the terrestrial signature of DOM in this season was minimal, pointing to their production within the estuary. The summer increase in ligand concentrations above the halocline was accompanied by a reduction in their binding strengths (by approximately 0.5 log units) compared to winter, along with a decrease in DOM molecular weight, possibly influenced by solar irradiation. Seasonal anthropogenic Cu input was successfully buffered by the ambient ligand pool, keeping the concentration of free Cu-ions, its most bioavailable specie, well below documented toxicity levels for Cu (maximum of 2.54 pmol L<sup>−1</sup>). The seasonal DOM variations resulted in a ∼ two-fold increase in the Cu-binding capacity in summer (33 nmol L<sup>−1</sup>) compared to winter (17 nmol L<sup>−1</sup>). Despite the increased buffering capacity in summer, Cu levels are approaching this safety limit, which may increase its bioavailability to a concerning level, a risk much lower in winter when Cu inputs are minimal. These results underscore the critical role of DOM in mitigating seasonal anthropogenic Cu inputs, while also highlighting the need for further investigation into the long-term resilience of estuarine systems under shifting environmental and anthropogenic pressures.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18219,"journal":{"name":"Marine Chemistry","volume":"270 ","pages":"Article 104513"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143682117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the presence/absence of silicate minerals did not incur marked differences in diatom population, TEP secretion increased in the presence of silicate particles.

The presence of diatoms appeared to have more influence on silicate minerals than the presence of silicate minerals on diatom activities. The C/Si ratios of the rounded feldspar grain edges in the <em>Coscinodiscus</em> cultures were significantly higher than those of stepwise edges, that we interpret to indicate that diatoms secrete TEP to dissolve silicate minerals.

Paired regressions are developed from bottle samples and common hydrographic measurements for both offshore and coastal waters that intersect in this region but retain distinct relationships between total alkalinity and salinity. Application of these regression models to regional autonomous glider data demonstrates that established features of this shelf system can be characterized from a carbonate system perspective along a contiguous transect from land to the shelf break, despite greater regression uncertainties in coastal water.

This glacially-fed river also provides a large input of dissolved chemicals to the NGA, and because of its large particle load, it impacts the distribution of particle-reactive elements. Summertime sampling of shelf water properties was carried out within the Copper River plume region during two years: first during a period of upwelling-favorable winds and higher river discharge (4–7 July 2019) and later during lower river discharge and more typical downwelling conditions (11–13 July 2020). Although these wind conditions were observed in separate years, both can occur over the course of a single summer. We found that the export of most nutrients to surface shelf waters was enhanced under upwelling-favorable winds accompanied by higher river discharge compared to downwelling conditions and lower discharge. For example, greater cross-shelf plume transport in 2019 resulted in higher mid-shelf surface inventories for nitrate + nitrite (N + N), silicic acid (H<sub>4</sub>SiO<sub>4</sub>), phosphate (PO<sub>4</sub><sup>3−</sup>), dissolved Fe (dFe), and dissolved Cu (dCu) compared to 2020. Entrainment of relatively macronutrient-rich subsurface waters under upwelling conditions may also have contributed to the enhancement of these mid-shelf nutrient inventories. The observed high N:P ratios in plume waters were likely driven by the scavenging of P within particle-laden plume waters. Similarly, we observed lower than expected [dFe] (1.58 to 6.12 nM) in particle-laden plume waters, likely a result of enhanced scavenging combined with low concentrations of dissolved Fe-binding ligands. Although dNi and dZn have a river source, we observed lower concentrations in surface shelf waters under upwelling conditions, suggesting enhanced dilution by relatively micronutrient-poor subsurface waters. Results highlight the influence of sub-seasonal variations in atmospheric forcing on nutrient distributions and suggest that this forcing also impacts the location and timing of primary production hotspots during summer, adding to the ecological mosaic of the NGA across a range of temporal and spatial scales.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18219,"journal":{"name":"Marine Chemistry","volume":"270 ","pages":"Article 104508"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143510835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This was done through the analysis of continuous and discrete measurements of oceanographic and atmospheric variables measured during the NAUTILUS V cruise (January 2019) crossing the main fronts along the Drake Passage and several distinct biogeochemical provinces along the northern Antarctic Peninsula. The main findings indicated that the Drake Passage acted as a weak net CO<sub>2</sub> outgassing area (∼0.1 mmol m<sup>−2</sup> d<sup>−1</sup>), although contrasting regions with close sea-air CO<sub>2</sub> fluxes magnitudes of ∼3 mmol m<sup>−2</sup> d<sup>−1</sup> were identified north (a net CO<sub>2</sub> sink zone regulated by net photosynthesis) and south (a net CO<sub>2</sub> source zone regulated by net respiration) of the Polar Front. On the other hand, the northern Antarctic Peninsula areas demonstrated a more heterogeneous sea-air CO<sub>2</sub> exchanges behaviour varying from moderate net CO<sub>2</sub> outgassing of ∼1.3 mmol m<sup>−2</sup> d<sup>−1</sup> (Bransfield Strait, western Antarctic Peninsula and Weddell Sea continental shelves) to a moderate (∼ −2.4 mmol m<sup>−2</sup> d<sup>−1</sup>) or weak (∼ −0.1 mmol m<sup>−2</sup> d<sup>−1</sup>) net CO<sub>2</sub> ingassing in Antarctic Sound surroundings and Gerlache Strait, respectively. It is interesting to note that a huge intensification of the net CO<sub>2</sub> outgassing of ∼5 mmol m<sup>−2</sup> d<sup>−1</sup> was identified in the area under the influence of the Antarctic Slope Front bifurcation eddy south of Clarence Island. The CO<sub>2</sub> outgassing is expected in this stationary and anticyclonic feature, but its magnitude was ∼75 % higher than the known estimate, which was associated with strengthen winds and eddy dynamics. Net respiration was the leading biological process occurring in the study area, except north of Polar Front where net photosynthesis prevailed. The patchy distribution of sea-air CO<sub>2</sub> exchanges behaviour along the Drake Passage and northern Antarctic Peninsula reinforced the needs for better understanding and focus on finer resolution of the CO<sub>2</sub> chemistry and processes at regional and local investigations, especially in a region suffering with multiple climate stressors, located in a transition zone of warm and cold environments, and key to connect the Southern Ocean ecosystems in a circumpolar way.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18219,"journal":{"name":"Marine Chemistry","volume":"269 ","pages":"Article 104497"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143222704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
