| Abstract | Shellfish and macro-algae integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) greatly increases the sustainability of aquaculture. However, studies of the effects of large-scale shellfish–macro-algae aquaculture on the functions of the environment and the ocean carbon sink are lacking. In this study, spatiotemporal changes in environmental factors and inorganic and organic carbon in the seawater of Sanggou Bay, which is a key region for shellfish–macro-algae aquaculture in northern China, were studied over one year. Results confirmed that a large area of shellfish culture may aggravate ocean acidification and ocean hypoxia. When the macro-algae in the aquaculture zone are harvested in summer，the pH and dissolved oxygen concentration in the seawater of Sanggou Bay decreased by 0.39 units and 1.06 mg/L, respectively. Macro-algae culture can offset the impacts of shellfish respiration and calcification on the pH and DO. Both shellfish and macro-algae affect the seawater carbonate system. In summer，surface seawater DIC concentration and pCO2 in Sanggou bay were highest，while the lowest DIC and pCO2 were found in the winter. The surface seawater DIC concentration and pCO2 were highest in the shellfish culture zone. The control area did not significantly differ from that in the shellfish–macro-algae mixed-culture zone. Shellfish and macro-algae can also promote the migration and transformation of organic carbon. The DOC concentration in macro-algae culture zone was the highest, and the DOC concentration in the shellfish culture zone was the lowest. The POC concentration in the shellfish culture zone and macro-algae culture zone surface seawater was lower, and the POC concentration in the shellfish-macro-algae mixed culture zone and the control area was higher. In summer, the shellfish culture zone and shellfish–macro-algae polyculture zone were sources of atmospheric CO2. In autumn and winter, the entire bay was a strong sink of atmospheric CO2. In sum, large-scale aquaculture altered the carbon sink function and carbon cycle of the marine ecosystem. Although the CO2 released by shellfish respiration and calcification may be a potential source of atmospheric CO2, the shellfish and marco-algae IMTA promoted the absorption of atmospheric CO2 by the marine ecosystem, as well as the growth and survival of calcified organisms. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
