Abstract. Estuarine sediments are key sites for removal of phosphorus (P) from rivers and the open sea. Vivianite, an Fe(II)-P mineral, can act as a major sink for P in Fe-rich coastal sediments. In this study, we investigate the burial of P in the Öre Estuary in the northern Baltic Sea. We find much higher rates of P burial at our five study sites (up to ∼0.145 molm-2yr-1) when compared to more southern coastal areas in the Baltic Sea with similar rates of sedimentation. Detailed study of the sediment P forms at our site with the highest rate of sedimentation reveals a major role for P associ

Abstract. Arctic rivers will be increasingly affected by the hydrological and biogeochemical consequences of thawing permafrost. During transport, permafrost-derived organic carbon (OC) can either accumulate in floodplain and shelf sediments or be degraded into greenhouse gases prior to final burial. Thus, the net impact of permafrost OC on climate will ultimately depend on the interplay of complex processes that occur along the source-to-sink system. Here, we focus on the Kolyma River, the largest watershed completely underlain by continuous permafrost, and marine sediments of the East Siberi

Rivers carry the dissolved and solid products of silicate mineral weathering, a process that removesCO2from the atmosphere and provides a key negative climate feedback over geological timescales.

The chemistry of both river waters and the exchange pool demonstrates exchange equilibrium, confirmed by Sr isotopes.

Abstract:
The mechanisms that control estuarine sediment transport are complicated due to the interaction between riverine flows, tidal currents, waves, and wave-driven currents. In the past decade, severe seabed erosion and shoreline retreat along the sandy coast of western Taiwan have raised concerns regarding the sustainability of coastal structures. In this study, ADCPs (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler) and turbidity meters were deployed at the mouth of the Zengwen river to obtain the time series and the spatial distribution of flow velocities and turbidity during the base flow and flood condition

Abstract:
Nature-based solutions provide safeguarding, sustainable governance, and rehabilitation for ecosystems while concurrently offering benefits for human society (Seddon et al., 2020). As a common choice for nature-based solutions, submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) is ubiquitous and important for coastal and riverine ecosystems due to its ability to reduce flow velocity and dissipate wave energy. Previous research, such as that by Nepf (2012), has examined the velocity profiles related to a submerged canopy that spans the entire width of a channel. In natural environments, SAV often exhibits patc

Abstract. The mass of carbon stored as organic matter in terrestrial systems is sufficiently large to play an important role in the global biogeochemical cycling of CO2 and O2. Field measurements of radiocarbon-depleted particulate organic carbon (POC) in rivers suggest that terrestrial organic matter persists in surface environments over millennial (or greater) timescales, but the exact mechanisms behind these long storage times remain poorly understood. To address this knowledge gap, we developed a numerical model for the radiocarbon content of riverine POC that accounts for both the duratio

Accurate modelling and prediction of sediment transport in aquatic environments is essential for sustainable coastal and riverine management.

Abstract. The human pressure upon an alluvial river in the Mediterranean region has changed its riverine and deltaic landscapes. The river has been channelized in the last 70 years while the delta has been retreating for more than a century (a set of data unknown, so far). The paper concentrates on the fluvial component, trying to connect it to the delta evolution. Is the channelization responsible for the delta retreat? We develop a method to compute the actual bed load transport with real information of the past river morphology. The paper compares the computation with very limited measureme

Diffusion flux is an essential tool to estimate the contribution of internal nitrogen and phosphorus in eutrophic lakes. There are mainly two methods, i.e., model calculation based on in-situ porewater sampling and water quality monitoring in laboratory incubation. The results obtained by the two methods are rarely compared, decreasing the validity of internal contribution and following management strategies. In this study, sediment samples were collected from a lake in China, then the fluxes were estimated by model calculation and laboratory incubation. The results show that there is an order

The release of nanophase metal particles from sulfide mineral decomposition in mining-impacted environments is a growing concern because of the potential for the transport of nanoscale particles that could increase the distribution of the metals and their environmental impact.

The distribution of metals between total and dissolved forms is driven by seasonal tempera

In the BBL, rates of nitrification (5–227 nmol N L−1 d−1) and ammonium assimilation (9–704 nmol N L−1 d−1) were not enhanced

Sediment is a natural component of riverine environments and its presence in river systems is essential. However, in many ways and many places river systems and the landscape have been strongly affected by human activities which have destroyed naturally balanced sediment supply and sediment transport within catchments. As a consequence a number of severe environmental problems and failures have been identified, in particular the link between sediments and chemicals is crucial and has become a subject of major scientific interest.
