Diatom bloom‐derived bottom water hypoxia off the Changjiang estuary, with and without typhoon influence (2017, background): “Due to their riverine origin and frequent resuspension, these particles are also relatively resistant to microbial degradation (Blair and Aller 2012; Yao et al. 2015).”
The changing carbon cycle of the coastal ocean (2013, background): “In addition to burial, organic carbon in shelf environments is transported to the open ocean through physical resuspension, bioturbation, and mobile and fluid muds along the sea floor 54 (Fig.”
Extracting the most from terrestrial plant-derived n-alkyl lipids and their carbon isotopes from the sedimentary record: A review (2017, background): “Rivers transport ca. 0.4 Gt/yr of dissolved and particulate organic carbon (OC) to the marine realm (Hedges and Oades, 1997) with a preservation efficiency in sediments of ca. 20–40% (Blair and Aller, 2012).”
