Spatial variations in grain-size parameters can reflect sediment transport patterns and depositional dynamic environments. Therefore, 616 surficial sediment samples taken from the Zhejiang nearshore area in the East China Sea were analyzed to better understand the net sediment transport pattern in this region. The study area is generally dominated by clayey silt and has relatively coarse mud sediment in the southeast. The sorting coefficient of surface sediment is higher than 1.4, and sediment is poorly sorted throughout the study area. The skewness has a strong correlation with the mean grain-size diameter. The net sediment transport pathways obtained by the grain-size trend analysis indicate several distinct characteristics of the surficial sediment transport. The sediment is transported southward under the action of the stronger southward Zhejiang-Fujian Coastal Current (ZMCC) in winter in the upper part of the nearshore area. Influenced by the obstruction of the Taiwan Warm Current (TWC) and the tidal current, surficial sediment transport vectors display two areas of grain-size trend convergence and indicate the net deposition environment has a high sedimentation rate. However, the transport is mainly toward the north under the control of the prevailing northward ZMCC and the strong TWC in the summer. The sedimentary rate is closely related to the processes of the sediment transport. On the one hand, sediment transportation affects the depositional rate in a different environment. On the other hand, the modern sedimentary rate can reflect indirectly the sediment source and sediment transportation.

Response of methane emissions to water levels in simulated constructed wetlands

Wetland is an important natural source of methane (CH4) generated under the actions of methanogens in the anaerobic environment. A greenhouse experiment was conducted to quantify the response of methane emissions to water levels by simulating three water levels (10, 20, and 40 cm) in constructed wetlands and the methane was determined by the static chamber-gas chromatograph technique. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the emissions of CH4 were positively correlated with water temperature and air temperature while they were negatively correlated with air humidity. The water levels simulation experiment showed that the emission of CH4 was the highest when the water level was 20 cm and the CH4 concentrations of the water-air interface had different patterns at various water levels in the daytime. In conclusion, water level and temperature should be considered when accounting for greenhouse gas emissions in constructed wetlands as they both have important influences on CH4 emission.
