Time-series shifts of selected geochemical and biological parameters during the sampling campaign. A = concentrations of Pristane and Phytane; B = concentrations of trimethylnaphthalene and Phenanthrene; C = relative abundance of alkane 1-monooxygenasegene (alkB) gene; D = relative abundance of Ring-hydroxylating dioxygenase (RDH) gene. The dashed lines represent the maximum tidal action at every tide period and shadow area for the time duration of every tide period.
