Nutrients are essential for marine primary productivity and have a critical role in maintaining the structure and function of marginal. Variations in nutrient levels in sea ecosystems can influence ecological disturbances significantly. The Liaodong Bay (LDB) is a semi-enclosed marginal sea in northern China. It has experienced severe eutrophication since the 1990s, leading to considerable environmental challenges. Understanding of seasonal and long-term nutrient dynamics in the LDB is limited. We examined seasonal datasets collected in May (spring), August (summer), November (autumn), and March (winter) of 2019, and analyzed long-term trends through historical records spanning multiple decades. Nutrients accumulated during autumn/winter but were depleted during spring/summer. A low concentration of dissolved inorganic phosphate led to an increased nitrogen ratio exceeding the Redfield ratio (>16) during winter, spring, and summer, driven by phytoplankton growth. In late-autumn, nutrient concentrations increased, with ratios approaching the Redfield ratio. Phosphorus limitation prevailed in spring, summer, and winter, while silicon limitation dominated in autumn. Dissolved inorganic nitrogen and nitrogen ratios in the LDB increased sharply since the 1980s, peaking before declining after 2013. Dissolved silica and silicon ratios decreased steadily, stabilizing in recent years. These trends imply a shift from nitrogen-to-phosphorus limitation, influenced by riverine inputs and atmospheric deposition. These nutrient fluctuations may have significant ecological effects, including dinoflagellate abundance, algal blooms, and jellyfish blooms. Our analyses highlight the complexity of nutrient dynamics and positive impact of local nutrient-reduction policies implemented in recent years in improving the environmental quality of the LDB.
