Abstract Previous in-situ observations have suggested that bottom water temperature variations in shelf seas can drive significant ocean heat flux (BHF) by conduction. The BHF-driven variations, however, been overlooked general circulation models. In this study, we established a sea-sediment fully coupled model through incorporating the BHF. included sediment module/model, and BHF was calculated based on content variations. Meanwhile, applied temporally varying calculation of temperature, which further determined temperature. two-way process presents more complete physically reasonable budget synchronously profile. validated using one-dimensional test case, then it domain covering Bohai Yellow Seas. results suggest when strong thermocline exists, change than 1°C because effects are limited to within shallow layer. However, column is well mixed, changes entire column, transported across boundary ventilated atmosphere. Thus, has less effect may directly affect air-sea flux. interactions dampen amplitude propose calling seabed d ampening h eat variation mechanism (SDH).

Abstract Dissolved oxygen (DO) in the bottom layer is essential for benthic organisms, and its temporal variations are widely concerned. However, previous studies have primarily focused on long‐term of DO, leaving high‐frequency (HF) dynamics inadequately understood. This study addresses this gap by utilizing two seafloor monitoring systems that provide 3‐year‐long HF records a typical temperate shelf sea, Bohai Sea, China. During stratified period each year, DO exhibits notable fluctuations superimposed seasonal cycle. These signals originate from tide‐induced vertical mixing, showing peaks at various tidal frequencies. Notably, significant shallow‐water observed due to frequency doubling semi‐diurnal diurnal currents. Moreover, demonstrates strongly asymmetric responses mixing time scales. To be specific, increases with intensity process being exceptionally rapid under conditions weak mixing. The underlying cause asymmetry markedly stronger gradient near seabed sediment demand. A process‐oriented biological model successfully reproduced observational features, further supporting our theoretical inference. findings highlight joint role demand modulating seas, underscoring their significance refined prediction future.

This study evaluates deployment strategies for artificial oxygenation devices to mitigate coastal hypoxia, particularly in mariculture regions. Focusing on a typical region the waters of China, we examined combined effects topography, hydrodynamics, and biogeochemical processes. A high-resolution three-dimensional physical-biogeochemical coupled model, validated against observational data from three summer cruises 2020, accurately captured key drivers hypoxia. Results reveal that hypoxic zones exhibit an uneven distribution, driven by persistent offshore jets at specific locations. Nearshore upstream significantly improves oxygen delivery is more cost-efficient due reduced construction maintenance requirements. Uncertainty analysis explored impacts varying water mass properties, concentration, injection flow rates, content. The influence varies depending site. Particularly, buoyant plumes can notably reduce effectiveness hypoxia mitigation. Artificial may lead unintended ecological impacts, including increased nutrient release enhanced primary production, which prolong duration Furthermore, simulations indicate natural downwelling currents are insufficient transport oxygen-enriched surface bottom zones. These findings underscore importance comprehensive predeployment assessments advancement technologies ensure both immediate long-term sustainability.
