  • Serpentinite-derived slab fluids control the oxidation state of the subarc mantle
    It has been proved that arc magmas are more oxidized than the magmas erupted from the mid-ocean ridges, which is probably attributed to the input of oxidizing subduction components into the sub-arc mantle. However, it remains unclear what subduction com...It has been proved that arc magmas are more oxidized than the magmas erupted from the mid-ocean ridges, which is probably attributed to the input of oxidizing subduction components into the sub-arc mantle.

  • Nonlocal Population Sources Triggered Dinoflagellate Blooms in the Changjiang Estuary and Adjacent Seas
    The Changjiang Estuary and adjacent sea area suffer from frequent harmful algal blooms, exerting a great impact on the ecological environment and fishery resources. About 60% of harmful algal blooms are caused by dinoflagellates. However, the population...The Changjiang Estuary and adjacent sea area suffer from frequent harmful algal blooms, exerting a great impact on the ecological environment and fishery resources.
