摘要	Molybdenum plays an important role in marine biological activity, especially in nitrogen cycling as a cofactor for N-2 fixation and nitrate reductase. However, the dissolved Mo (dMo) behavior and its interaction with N cycling in the coastal waters is still unclear. In this study, the dMo concentrations and parameters related to Mo distribution and N cycling in surface and bottom seawaters of the Bohai (BS) and Yellow Seas (YS) were examined. The results showed that dMo concentrations ranged from 36.4 nmol L-1 to 125.0 nmol L-1, most of which deviated significantly from the conservative line, indicating nonconservative behavior of Mo relative to salinity. The highest dMo concentrations occurring in 36 degrees N section of north of the South YS (SYS), were close to conservative value (105 nmol L-1). Significant depletion up to 40-50 nmol L-1 of dMo mainly appeared in the BS, NYS and south of the SYS, suggesting the possible removal of dMo by biological utilization and particle adsorption. Particularly, the increasing dMo concentrations away the Yellow River estuary indicated that freshwater dilution was one of reasons for dMo distributions in the BS. The similar spatial distribution of dMo and dissolved Mn concentrations suggested the possible scavenging by MnOx phases for Mo removal. The negative correlation between dMo and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentrations in surface seawaters suggested that biological uptake was involved in dMo removal. The depleted dMo in most of sites corresponded with the higher nitrite concentrations, implying the possible involvement of nitrate reduction process. Although the highest N-2 fixation rates and relative abundances of cyanobacteria appeared in 36 degrees N section, corresponding with the conservative dMo, suggesting that Mo may play a minor role in N-2 fixation process there. The ten-folds of relative abundance of bacteria with nitrate reduction function than that with N-2 fixation function suggested that dMo seems to play more important role in nitration reduction than nitrogen fixation in the BS and YS.
