摘要: This study reconstructs the environmental history of Xincun Lagoon over the past 167 years using sediment core XCW, employing Cu/Zn as a proxy for redox changes. Time-series analysis of Cu/Zn ratios reveals a significant decline (linear regression slope = -0.00082, p < 0.001; Mann-Kendall tau = -0.601, p < 0.001), indicating a steady reduction in redox potential and oxygen levels throughout the study period. This trend is attributed to anthropogenic activities, eutrophication, and climate-induced changes. Additionally, correlation analysis highlights strong linear relationships between Cu/Zn ratios and both total organic carbon (TOC) and total nitrogen (TN), emphasizing the role of redox conditions in the preservation of TOC and TN in lagoon sediments. The study also identifies a shift in organic matter sources from predominantly marine to a mix of marine and terrestrial inputs after 1990. These findings offer new insights into the interplay between redox dynamics and sedimentary processes, advancing our understanding of the lagoon's environmental evolution.
