In this study, fatty acid markers and δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N values were used to characterize the particulate and sedimentary organic matter composition in the large mangrove-dominated Parnaíba Delta, known as a large reservoir of blue carbon. The presence of some long-chain fatty acids and other mangrove OM markers, such as the 18:2ω6 and 18:3ω3, indicated that the material produced in mangroves contributed largely to the particulate organic matter of water and sediments of the delta. Their presence in further oceanic stations also reveals the mangrove material is exported to the adjacent coastal ocean. In the main river channel, the higher contribution of 18:2ω6 in the sediments than in the mangrove regions, indicated an additional source related to anthropogenic activities, probably agriculture. The branched fatty acids found in the samples point to the presence of bacteria and indicated the intense modifications of the organic matter in the region, reflecting the heterotrophic nature of the delta. In addition, the predominance of saturated fatty acids in the delta suggests that the organic matter exported to the coastal ocean is dominated by detrital material.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50497,"journal":{"name":"Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science","volume":"308 ","pages":"Article 108934"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142077244","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}

Hence, this study investigates the effect of changes in topographic features on the upstream fluvial patterns and downstream salinity intrusion at the multi-channel Tanintharyi River estuary (TRE), Myanmar. The outcomes were compared with the multi-channel Chikugo River estuary (CRE) and Arakawa River estuary (ARE) of Japan using the data presented in previous studies. Continuous measurements of velocity and discharge distributions were conducted at 12-h intensive surveys (30-min intervals) at the upstream confluence area of TRE during spring and neap tides. The velocity in the TRE was vertically uniform during spring and neap tides. The maximum horizontal velocity was found at the middle area of the main channel and at the thalweg area of the branch. In TRE, the discharge ratio of the branch to total discharge was temporally changed during a tidal cycle while the area ratio was stable. Conversely, the discharge ratio of the branch to total discharge in the CRE was nearly equal to the area ratio of the branch. This may be due to the influence of channel sinuosity. The mean velocity in the upstream estuarine channel reduced with an increase in sinuosity index (SI) in both TRE and CRE. Hence, the SI has a negative influence on the upstream fluvial flow. Further, the saltwater travel distance in the three multi-channel estuaries (TRE, CRE, and ARE) increased with a decrease in SI. Conversely, the salinity intrusion length in all three estuaries increased with an increase in SI. This shows that the SI has a negative influence on the saltwater travel distance and a positive influence on the salinity intrusion length. In conclusion, the topographic features of estuaries have a strong and different impact on the flow dynamics in their upstream and downstream.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50497,"journal":{"name":"Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science","volume":"308 ","pages":"Article 108923"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142129813","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}

In this study, we assess the spatial and temporal variations in marine coastal DOM chemical properties and its potential to fuel the growth of the heterotrophs in the planktonic food-web. We sampled two northwestern Mediterranean coastal stations under contrasting terrestrial and human influences. From January to July 2022, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration progressively increased, although highly variable spatially. DOM composition varied temporally rather than spatially. These variations appeared related to a combination of direct freshwater inputs (tracked by salinity variations), direct human contaminations (tracked by concentrations in copper and lead), and primary production (tracked by concentrations in chlorophyll <em>a</em>). An incubation experiment was used at each sampling date to evaluate the growth potential of heterotrophic prokaryotes and compare it to variations in DOM properties. Significantly higher growth was observed with DOM from a site under higher terrestrial and human influences. Water temperature exerted a higher control on growth than DOM properties. Correlation analysis with DOM sources suggested the uncoupling of phytoplanktonic production and growth of heterotrophic prokaryotes, which appeared better supported by human contaminations and, to a lesser extent, freshwater inputs. Sediment resuspension in harbors and antifouling paints could represent two important sources of bioavailable resources, favoring fast heterotrophic growth and higher net production, respectively. This work suggests that human activities and constructions in harbors have the potential to strengthen the heterotrophic basis of the planktonic food web.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50497,"journal":{"name":"Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science","volume":"308 ","pages":"Article 108925"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0272771424003135/pdfft?md5=f1f170c3a49403a5935196b6477199b4&pid=1-s2.0-S0272771424003135-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142077339","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}

To understand the river use of subadult and adult Japanese seabass, we estimated the river use history using otolith Sr/Ca ratios from individuals captured in both marine and riverine environments. Based on hierarchical clustering with Dynamic Time Warping, Sr/Ca ratios at age 0 were clustered into three habitat use patterns: coastal resident, estuarine resident, and river migrant. Groups that used coastal and riverine habitats at age 0 tended to use coastal and riverine habitats, respectively, from spring to fall of age 1 and above, with overlapping distributions during winter. Subadult and adult river use patterns were linked to juvenile river use, indicating a carryover effect. Additionally, seasonal migration between the sea and rivers became less active with age, and the high growth sustained by river use also declined with age, suggesting that the benefits of river use are less for older (subadult and adult) seabass. This study highlights that juvenile habitat use experience drives subadult and adult partial migration of Japanese seabass, with individuals seeking environments adapted from past experiences.

With the effect of freshwater, the amplitude of tidal currents increases in the upper layers and decreases in the bottom layers, and in regions with geometrical complexity, it is maximum in the middle depths. Momentum analysis indicates that vertical friction (VF), pressure gradient forces (PGF), and momentum advection (ADV) are the main factors leading to changes in tidal vertical structures. Variations of VF induced by stratification lead to an increase of tidal currents amplitude in the upper layers while a decrease in the bottom layers. Changes in PGF and ADV can also have significant impacts on tidal currents. Tidal frequency variations of density gradients result in pronounced tidal frequency baroclinic PGF in the bottom depths and enlarge total PGF. The amplitude of tidal currents increases at corresponding depths, which leads to subsurface maxima of tidal currents. ADV is special as its phase is variable relative to tidal currents, which can enhance or weaken tidal currents in different regions. The generation of tidal frequency baroclinic PGF is highly correlated with nonlinear processes, and the horizontal advection is considered the primary source of baroclinic PGF.
