Sea surface warming and ocean-to-atmosphere
feedback driven by large-scale offshore wind farms under seasonally stratified conditionsHyodae Seo1,2*†, César Sauvage1,2†, Christoph Renkl2,3†,Julie K. Lundquist4,5†, Anthony Kirincich2†Offshore wind farms may induce changes in the upper ocean and near-surface atmosphere through coupled ocean- atmosphere feedbacks. Yet, the role of air...

Coastal bays serve as reservoirs for microplastics from East China: insights
from a mass budget model based on sedimentary findingsOver the past two decades, research and concern regarding micro- plastics (MPs, < 5 mm) in the marine environment have continued to escalate (Auta et al., 2017; Alimi et al., 2018; Rochman, 2018a). MPs can be either primary (originating from plast...

Environmental performance of blue foods
The food system is a major driver of environmental change, emittinga quarter of all greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, occupying half of allice-freeland, and responsible for three quarters of global consumptivewater use and eutrophication3,6. Yet, it st...

Global methane emissions from rivers and streams
Freshwater ecosystems are responsible for nearly half of global CH4 emissions to the atmosphere4.7. Yet, among freshwaters, the role of rivers and streams in the global CH4 cycle remains unclear althoughcurrent best estimates of global fluvial emissi...

Combined effects of polyamide microplastics and the pathogenic bacterium
Vibrio parahaemolyticus on the immune parameters of Mytilus coruscusThe thick-shell mussel Mytilus coruscus is a crucial marine ecological indicator species, sensitive to environmental changes and pollution. Its population size, growth condition, and reproductive capacity serve as key indicators of the health of the ...

Construction and application of coastal ecosystem model coupling multiple human activities
Human activities have led to the discharge of pollutants into near- shore ecosystems worldwide, resulting in frequent ecological disasters and environmental issues such as red tides, hypoxia, and acidification (Wang et al., 2021; Keys et al., 2017), ...

Community stability of free-living and particle-attached prokaryotes in
coastal waters across four seasons: insights from 9.5 years of weekly samplingMarine microbial communities play a pivotal role in the sustain- ability of aquatic ecosystems by being instrumental in nutrient cycling, organic matter decomposition, and global biogeochemical processes (DeLong and Karl, 2005; Pomeroy etal., 2007). ...
