dc.description.abstract | Sterol distributions in the dissolved phase and suspended particulate matter were investigated in the off-shore East China Sea influenced by the low salinity water mass. Total sterol concentrations in 16 water samples ranged from 663 to 5690 pg/L in the dissolved phase and 3200 to 31,900 pg/L in the suspended particulate matter. In the overall sterol composition, marine sterols dominated with 66% in the dissolved phase and 71 % in the suspended particulate matter. The dominant sterols in dissolved phase were β-sitosterol (25%), brassicasterol (24%), cholesterol (19%) and fucosterol (13%), and in the suspended particulate matter, brassicasterol (21%), cholesterol (20%), β-sitosterol (16%), and cholestenone (14%). Typical sewage markers such as coprostanol, α-cholestanol, epicoprostanol, and coprostanone were absent. However, molecular signatures of allochthonous terrestrial plants were still visible at such distances. There was a relationship between low salinity water mass in the East China Sea and terrestrial sterols, suggesting the influence of Yangtze River in transporting land derived organic matter to the off-shore East China Sea.0 pg/L in the dissolved phase and 3200 to 31,900 pg/L in the suspended particulate matter.
