Seawater samples were collected from April 6 to September 6, 2017 in the Southern Yellow Sea, China where green tides often occurred, and analyzed for nutrients, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM). The DOC concentrations increased significantly in the green tide areas by approximately 1.2 times compared to those in the non-green tide areas. From the large-scale outbreak to the complete dissipation of the green tide, the fluorescence intensities of the four FDOM fluorescent components identified in the green tide areas were significantly higher than those in the non-green tide areas. During the extinction period, the fluorescence intensities of the three humus-like components and one protein-like component were approximately 1.8 and 1.3 times higher than those in the non-green tide areas, respectively. These findings suggested that the outbreak of green tide could release DOM into water and affect the biogeochemical cycle in green tide regions.
