Coral-inferred historical changes of nickel emissions related to industrial and transportation activities in the Beibu Gulf, northern South China Sea

Xingyuan Wu et al.

Summary: The study utilized a coral record from the South China Sea to reconstruct Ni distribution patterns, showing significant fluctuations in Ni/Ca ratios over different years, especially multiple mutation peaks from 1984 to 1993, indicating Ni discharge events and demonstrating its potential in recording oil spill episodes.

The Ba/Ca record of coral from Weizhou Island: Contributions from oil-drilling muds and the winter monsoon

Xiaohua Li et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of oil exploration and drilling activities on marine environments using coral samples from Weizhou Island in the northern South China Sea. The analysis of Ba/Ca ratios in the coral provides insights into the effects of oil exploration and drilling activities, as well as natural signals such as the winter monsoon.

Phytohormonal Roles in Plant Responses to Heavy Metal Stress: Implications for Using Macrophytes in Phytoremediation of Aquatic Ecosystems

Thien Q. Nguyen et al.

Summary: Heavy metals pose a threat to aquatic ecosystems, but phytoremediation using macrophytes can be an effective method for remediation. Macrophytes can improve water quality by their mechanisms of uptake, translocation, and accumulation of heavy metals.

Identification of heavy metal pollution in estuarine sediments under long-term reclamation: Ecological toxicity, sources and implications for estuary management

Lixia Niu et al.

Summary: After long-term reclamation, the Modaomen estuary of the Pearl River Delta suffered from moderate-to-high pollution status due to enriched accumulation of heavy metals like Cr, Zn, Pb, Cu, Cd, and Ni, with Cd being a major concern for ecosystem health. Receptor models quantified the sources and contributions of these heavy metals, highlighting the importance of controlling metal input and managing sediment quality in the estuary.

Trace element proxies and stable isotopes used to identify water quality threats to elkhorn coral (Acropora palmata) at two national parks in St.

Amanda L. Bayless et al.

Summary: Biological impairments have been observed on reefs at two national parks in St. Croix, USVI, with potential impacts from water quality parameters and trace elements (such as Cu, Pb, Zn) that may originate from anthropogenic sources. Analyzing trace elements in coral skeletons and stable isotope levels can help identify potential pollution sources and determine the heavy metal impacts on these invaluable reefs.
