富营养化驱动的近海缺氧-酸化形成机制及其生态效应研究进展

Advances in formation mechanisms and ecological effects of eutrophication-driven coastal hypoxia and acidification

  • 摘要: 在全球气候变化与人类活动持续增强下,河口与近海生态系统正面临富营养化、缺氧与酸化等多种生态环境问题,成为当前海洋环境科学研究的前沿热点。本文系统梳理了营养盐富集、水体层化、有机质沉降与微生物再矿化等关键环节对低氧与酸化形成的驱动机制,并总结了缺氧–酸化耦合下近海生物群落结构的响应特征及对生物地球化学循环的影响。同时,结合长江口、珠江口、切萨皮克湾和波罗的海等典型区域案例,探讨了不同海域在营养盐来源、水动力条件及生态响应方面的区域差异与演变趋势。并基于当前近海生态治理在跨区域协同、治理尺度匹配及生态修复滞后等方面存在的主要挑战,提出以“流域–河口–近海”一体化的综合治理体系,通过强化陆海统筹与区域协作,完善生态过程调控和长期监测体系,提升近海生态系统韧性与安全,为沿海生态环境的可持续管理提供科学支撑。

     

    Abstract: Under global climate change and intensifying human activities, estuarine and coastal ecosystems are facing multiple environmental challenges, including eutrophication, hypoxia, and acidification, making them a frontier focus in current marine environmental research. This paper systematically reviews the driving mechanisms behind low oxygen and acidification, focusing on key processes such as nutrient enrichment, water column stratification, organic matter sedimentation, and microbial remineralization. It further summarizes the response characteristics of coastal community structures under coupled hypoxia-acidification conditions and their impacts on biogeochemical cycles. By examining case studies from typical regions—including the Yangtze River Estuary, Pearl River Estuary, Chesapeake Bay, and the Baltic Sea—the paper identifies regional differences and evolutionary trends in nutrient sources, hydrodynamic conditions, and ecological responses across different coastal zones. Addressing major challenges in current coastal ecosystem management—such as insufficient cross-regional coordination, mismatched governance scales, and delayed ecological restoration—the paper proposes an integrated "watershed–estuary–coastal" management framework. This approach emphasizes enhanced land-sea integration and regional collaboration, improves regulation of ecological processes, and strengthens long-term monitoring systems to enhance the resilience and safety of coastal ecosystems, thereby providing scientific support for sustainable coastal environmental management.
