Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) is a direct indicator used to evaluate the ecological state of a waterbody, such as algal blooms that degrade the water quality in lakes, reservoirs and estuaries. In this study, artificial neural network (ANN) and support vecto...
Nowadays, estuarial areas have been strongly affected by the construction of electrical power dams from upstream, downstream urbanization and many types of hazards along the coastal regions. It has resulted in significant changes in estuarine wetland...
This paper presents a deep-learning-based method to detect recreational vessels. The method takes advantage of existing underwater acoustic measurements from an Estuarine Soundscape Observatory Network based in the estuaries of South Carolina (SC), U...

Pollution from heavy metals in estuaries poses potential risks to the aquatic environment and public health. The complexity of the estuarine water environment limits the accurate understanding of its pollution prediction. Field observations were cond...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) undermines the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals of good health and well-being. Antibiotics are known to exacerbate AMR, but nonantibiotic antimicrobials, such as quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs), are now...
This study developed an intelligent method for identifying and quantifying water pollution sources in estuarine areas. It characterized the excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectra from seven end-members, including seawater, rainwater, a...
Neurotoxicity is frequently observed in the global aquatic environment, threatening aquatic ecosystems and human health. However, a very limited proportion of neurotoxic effects (∼1%) has been explained by known chemicals of concern. Here, we integra...
Dredging in estuarine systems significantly impacts phytoplankton communities, with suspended particulate matter (SPM) and dissolved aluminum (Al) serving as indicators of disturbance intensity. This study assessed the effects of dredging in the São ...
Mangroves are among the most significant organic carbon sinks on Earth. However, the drivers of mangrove carbon remain poorly understood due to the lack of data on organic carbon across different types of estuaries. In this study, boosted regression ...
The dissolved oxygen (DO) is crucial for the ecological health of estuaries and bays. However, human activities, land-sea interactions, and the unclear impact mechanisms of water quality parameters (WQPs) pose challenges to DO prediction. Water quali...
