The size-fractionated composition of particulate biogenic silica and its ecological significance in the Changjiang Estuary area by Xizhen Liu, Xizhen Liu, Bin Wang, Bin Wang, Siyang Chen, Haiyan Jin, Haiyan Jin, Yanpei Zhuang, Zhibing Jiang, Hongliang Li, Hongliang Li, Jianfang Chen, Jianfang Chen

“…Further, we observed that the distinct zones of high PBSi values in the surface waters were affected by the Changjiang freshwater flushing, and those in the bottom waters were affected by the Yellow Sea Cold Water masses. Moreover, in the area where >20-μm PBSi prevailed, the silicate-to-nitrate ratio was less than 1 at most sampling stations, rendering silicate the limiting nutrient in this area. …”

Spatiotemporal distribution patterns of cephalopods and their responses to changes in the marine environment in the coastal waters of Zhejiang, China by Jun Liang, Jun Liang, Yongdong Zhou, Yongdong Zhou, Tian Wu, Feng Chen, Feng Chen, Kaida Xu, Kaida Xu, Guangjie Fang, Yazhou Zhang, Yazhou Zhang

“…The GAM revealed that, in spring, surface dissolved oxygen and sea bottom temperature led to significant changes in cephalopod resource density (p<0.05), and water depth significantly affected cephalopod resource density (p<0.01); in autumn, only water depth significantly affected cephalopod resource density (p<0.01).DiscussionThe cephalopod resources in the coastal waters of Zhejiang are under the dual stresses of fishing and environmental changes. …”
