Here, the tidal, seasonal and spatial variability of particulate organic carbon (POC), dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), carbon dioxide (CO<SUB>2</SUB>) and methane (CH<SUB>4</SUB>), among other biogeochemical variables related to carbon cycling, were studied in the Guayas river delta (Ecuador) to document the sources, processing and fluxes of these carbon forms. All variables were studied during a semi-diurnal (13 h) tidal cycle and along river transects at low and high tides, all carried out during one dry and rainy season. POC and total suspended matter (TSM) strongly covaried and peaked at high tidal flow velocities during a tidal cycle and at high river discharge during the rainy season, suggesting that resuspension of bottom sediments and/or surface erosion in the river catchment were a dominant source of particulate matter in the water column. The δ<sup>13</sup>C of POC, (from ∼-22‰ to ∼-27‰) showed an increasing contribution of marine phytoplankton to the POC pool as moving downstream along the delta during the dry season. Upstream DIC concentrations (∼1200 μmol L<sup>−1</sup>) were high in the Guayas river delta as compared to other tropical estuarine systems, and the δ<sup>13</sup>C of DIC revealed a shift from a more phytoplankton dominated source in the dry season and downstream (∼-4‰) to a relatively more terrestrial source in the rainy season and upstream (∼-12.5‰). Both DIC and its δ<sup>13</sup>C showed slight but consistent deviations from conservative mixing that hint at inputs of <sup>13</sup>C depleted DIC from mineralization along the delta. High values of the partial pressure of CO<SUB>2</SUB> (pCO<SUB>2</SUB>) observed upstream and in the rainy season (∼5250 μatm), associated with O<sub>2</sub> undersaturation (∼60%) and low δ<sup>13</sup>C<sub>DIC</sub>, suggest a strongly heterotrophic system, and resulted in high CO<SUB>2</SUB> efflux to the atmosphere. CH<SUB>4</SUB> concentrations were also higher during the rainy than dry season (93.5 ± 62.5 vs. 61.3 ± 39.5 nmol L<sup>−1</sup>), but unlike pCO<SUB>2</SUB>, showed tidal variations similar to TSM and POC, thus alluding to potential CH<SUB>4</SUB> release from sediments during resuspension events at high tidal flow velocities. This explorative survey revealed complex drivers and biogeochemical processes acting upon various spatio-temporal scales which are necessary to consider for a complete understanding of the carbon biogeochemistry in estuarine systems. Similar surveys on estuarine carbon in data scarce regions are encouraged to constrain uncertainties in coastal zone carbon budgets.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Carbon dynamics and CO<sub>2</sub> and CH<sub>4</sub> exchange in the mangrove dominated Guayas river delta, Ecuador","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-04-23 01:33:22.212959","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Particulate/dissolved carbon; Stable carbon isotopes; Tidal variation; Seasonal variation; Salinity gradient; Guayas river delta","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2022,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2023-04-12","DateCreate":"2023-04-11","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000940641900001","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1016/j.ecss.2022.107766"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":363543,"PubliDate":2022,"Pagination":"107766","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"267","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":44109,"SerRR":"Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science.
