Physical-Sedimentological-Ecological Coupled Dynamics in Turbid Estuary-Marginal Sea Continuum

Session ID#: 255477

Session Description:
Estuaries and marginal seas are critical interfaces between continents and open oceans globally. They play essential roles in global ocean circulation, biogeochemical cycles, and marine ecosystems. They are typically characterized by turbid waters due to the tremendous amount of fine sediment supplied by large rivers and strong resuspension in nearshore waters. There are also strong flux-fate interplays and exchanges in water, energy, and materials (e.g., sediments, nutrients, organisms, and pollutants) in the estuary-marginal sea continuum. Knowledge of the coupled physical-sedimentological-ecological dynamics in turbid estuaries and marginal seas is crucial for managing environmental and ecosystem challenges under the pressure of climate change and anthropogenic activities, such as sea-level rise, warming, eutrophication, and overexploitation. This session invites contributions that explore the multidisciplinary interactions shaping estuaries and marginal seas, including but not limited to circulations and exchange processes, sediment transport, nutrient fluxes and cycling, hypoxia and eutrophication, primary productivity, and multi-scale interactions driven by anthropogenic and climatic factors.
