Coastal marshes play essential roles in ecosystem biodiversity (Greenberg et al., 2006), flood and erosion protection (Narayan et al., 2017), coastal water quality (Kennish, 2001), and carbon sequestr

Phytoplankton, as primary producers in different coastal ecosystems, contribute approximately 50 % of the global net primary productivity (Field et al., 1998; Cloern et al., 2014). Therefore, they pla

Microbial communities are central to biogeochemical cycling in marine environments, driving the transformation and recycling of essential elements such as carbon, nitrogen and sulfur. These microorgan

Marine phytoplankton refer to protists that live on the surface of the ocean with sufficient light and obtain energy primarily through photosynthesis (Simon et al., 2009). Although marine phytoplankto

Metals are highly ranked contaminants of concern in aquatic ecosystems (Johnson et al., 2020) posing ecological and human health risks due to their toxicity, persistence and bioaccumulation. Phytoplan

Pollutants may enter the ocean in several ways, including river inputs, direct sewage discharge, mariculture pollution, and air-sea exchange. Research conducted over more than 30 years has demonstrate

Coastal marshes play essential roles in ecosystem biodiversity (Greenberg et al. 2006), flood and erosion protection (Narayan et al. 2017), coastal water quality (Kennish, 2001), and carbon sequestrat

Phytoplankton are microscopic, photosynthetic organisms inhabiting the upper layers of oceans, seas, and freshwater bodies. They utilize sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and nutrients into organic c

Marine ecosystems encompass the Earth's vast oceans and coastal regions, playing a fundamental role in global processes that sustain life on our planet. Besides the rich diversity of these ecosystems

Phytoplankton widely distributes in marine environments, serving as a vital food source for marine organisms (Field et al., 1998). However, the excessive growth of phytoplankton can lead to the deplet
