Phytoplankton response to a plume front in the northern South China Sea
Due to a strong river discharge during April–June 2016, a persistent salinity front, with freshwater flushing seaward on the surface but seawater moving landward at the bottom, was formed in the coastal waters west of the Pearl River estuary (PRE) over the northern South China Sea (NSCS) shelf....
