Abstract
@@@@Highlights •First national scale estimation of nitrogen and phosphorus removal rate in Korea provided.•Nutrient flux values of the sediment-water interface varied with nutrient exposure.•Confirmed sedimentary properties as key factors for varying nutrient concentrations•Reported purification capacity of TN (0.29 Tg N yr−1) and TP (0.15 Tg P yr−1) in Korean tidal flats•Removal economic value estimated as TN (8.26 Billion USD yr−1) and TP (8.21 Billion USD yr−1)
