TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined nine units in new-born intertidal zone of the Yellow River estuary, China were examined for concentrations of heavy metals (Pb, Cr, Cu, Zn and Ni) in sediments and plants.

TL;DR: Methane fluxes had a significant correlation with atmospheric, sediment temperature and above ground biomass and the implications of these data for global warming are discussed briefly.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared CH4 flux from the exotic invasive plant S. alterniflora with measurements from the aggressive native species Phragmites australis and the native species C. malaccensis following 3-years of monitoring.

TL;DR: Investigation of the relationships between the different stocks of soil organic carbon, and total C, N, and P pools in the plant-soil system from eight different wetland areas across the South-East coast of China showed that a future advance in the native mangrove replacement by Spartina alterniflora could constitute a serious environmental problem.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of applying steel slag, a residual product derived from the steel industry, on crop yield and CH4 and N2O emissions over multiple growing seasons in a Chinese subtropical paddy field were examined.
