Coastal marine environments are important links between the continents and the open ocean. The coast off Mangalore forms part of the upwelling zone along the southeastern Arabian Sea. The temperature, salinity, density, dissolved oxygen and stable oxygen isotope ratio (δ18O) of surface waters as well as those of bottom waters off coastal Mangalore were studied every month from October 2010 to May 2011. The coastal waters were stratified in October and November due to precipitation and runoff. The region was characterised by upwelled bottom waters in October, whereas the region exhibited a temperature inversion in November. The surface and bottom waters presented almost uniform properties from December until April. The coastal waters were observed to be most dense in January and May. Comparatively cold and poorly oxygenated bottom waters during the May sampling indicated the onset of upwelling along the region. δ18O of the coastal waters successfully documented the observed variations in the hydrographical characteristics of the Mangalore coast during the monthly sampling period. We also noted that the monthly variability in the properties of the coastal waters of Mangalore was related to the hydrographical characteristics of the adjacent open ocean inferred from satellite-derived surface winds, sea surface height anomaly data and sea surface temperatures. 相似文献

根据珠江口及其附近海域2006年冬季(2006年12月至2007年1月)航次的CTD调查资料发现,由于表层水体冷却而产生的对流作用,以及东北季风、浪、流等强动力条件下,冬季陆架水体垂向混合均匀,但粤东近岸海域却存在显著的温跃层及逆盐跃层,其原因在于:东北季风的Ekman效应引起了陆架表层高温、高盐海水向岸输送,东北季风还驱动了西南向沿岸流,其底边界层的Ekman效应引起了沿岸底层低温、低盐海水离岸输送,这样就形成了陆架方向的次生环流,在沿岸海域则为下降流,并表现为沿岸海域的逆盐跃层及温跃层现象。在下降流显著的区域,溶解氧垂向分布均匀且浓度较高,这应归因于下降流将溶解氧浓度较高的表层水带入深层所致。 相似文献

U–Th decay series isotopes, δ18O and Si measurements in the river estuarine waters and sediments of the polluted Hooghly estuary as well as the surface waters of the Bay of Bengal, its high salinity end member, are reported. Dissolved Si indicates that there are probably two mixing regimes, dissolved U behaviour is nonconservative and δ18O behaves conservatively in the overall estuarine region. Isotopes of reactive elements, viz. 234Th and 210Po, are removed from the estuarine waters in <2 days and <1 month, respectively, which is due to high suspended matter (30–301 mg l−1). 228Ra and 226Ra are profusely released into the estuarine waters in the low to mid-salinity regions.As expected, the opposite trend is observed in the case of estuarine sediments and suspended matter. Reactive isotopes of Th, 210Pb and 210Po are enriched, whereas Ra isotopes are depleted with respect to their parent nuclides in the estuarine sediments and suspended matter. 232Th/Al ratio appears well suited to study the distribution and mixing of the bed load sediments of the Ganga–Brahmaputra (G–B) and the Hooghly rivers with those from other rivers on the Bay of Bengal floor. 相似文献

The oxygen and carbon stable isotope compositions of the present-day Mediterranean waters have been measured in order to evaluate their variability, which is related to the specific climatic and hydrological conditions within the basin. The experimental equation between the δ18O value and the salinity of water, based on 300 measurements on surface, intermediate, and deep waters sampled during the VICOMED 2 and 3 cruises in the western, central and eastern Mediterranean, has a slope of 0.27, a value which is significantly lower than the slope of 0.45, as defined in the northeast Atlantic Ocean. This difference in the δ18O–salinity relationship, which occurs immediately in the Alboran basin, is basically a characteristic of the climatic regime of the Mediterranean, i.e., of an excess evaporation over fresh water input. The largest variations of these two parameters, δ18O of water and δ13C of ∑CO2, are observed in the surface waters, mostly in the western Mediterranean. This evolution mirrors the progressive eastward restriction, which separates the less-evaporated and more-productive western basins from the more-evaporated and less-productive eastern basins. The intermediate waters constitute a homogeneous layer. However, their δ18O values decrease eastward by 0.35‰ at maximum, due to progressive dilution by mixing with overlying and underlying water masses; their δ13C values decrease also eastward by 0.35‰ at maximum, due to an increasing input of nutrients issued from the regeneration of sinking organic particles. The deep waters have similar δ18O values but slightly higher δ13C values (often by less than 0.1‰) than the overlying intermediate waters, indicating generally well ventilated conditions due to active winter convection. 相似文献

On the basis of field studies executed in May 2008, we performed the analysis of the distribution of silicon in waters of
the Sevastopol Bay under conditions of the formation of a seasonal thermocline. We discuss differences in the distributions
of silicon in the surface and bottom layers, including the zone of mixing of river and sea waters. We noticed a significant
difference in values of the coefficients of correlation between the concentration of silicon and the salinity for the surface
and bottom layers. For bottom layer, we obtain large values of the coefficients of correlation between the concentration of
silicon and other hydrochemical characteristics which are explained by the influence of the processes of transformation of
organic substance. 相似文献

本文基于2016年长江口海域(舟山绿华山)的连续观测数据,分析了该海域水文环境要素分布,并估算了溶解氧跨跃层垂向输运。本次观测发现,水体的温度、盐度和溶解氧剖面具有明显的分层结构,三者跃层具有相同的变化趋势且主要受潮流变化影响。通过计算,得到跃层浮性频率的平方(N2)在10–3—10–2/s2之间,剪切的平方(S2)介于10–5—10–2/s2。潮流活动会激发水体剪切不稳定促进水体中溶解氧的垂向交换。最后,采用简化的一维溶解氧垂向输运模型,得到观测周期内跨跃层输运的溶解氧的含量为4.75mmol/(m2·d),佐证层化是长江口海域出现氧亏损现象的主要原因之一。 相似文献

以１９８７年５—６月中日台作黄东海域综合调查的溶解氧资料为主，探讨调查海区溶解氧分布特征与水团的对应关系。指出：近岸水团溶解氧合量高，远海低；上层水团高，下层低。在黄海冷水和东海北部底层冷水的上界出现明显的溶解氧垂直分布最大值及封闭形高氧区。水团边界区，氧跃层明显。溶解氧含量变化与水团温盐特性有关。通过分析发现，溶解氧对鉴别次表层以深各水团，特别对鉴别东海次表层水及黑潮次表层以深各水团，可作为一种有效的指标。 相似文献

溶解氧(DO)是海洋生物生存不可缺少的要素。随着人类活动的增加，全球近岸海域低氧情况愈发严重，已经成为威胁海洋生态系统健康的重要因素。通过对2017年5?9月秦皇岛外海区域的观测调查，探讨了该海域低氧与酸化的形成机制并计算了月平均耗氧速率。结果表明，5月秦皇岛外海水体混合较为均匀，表、底层DO浓度一致，均大于8 mg/L；6月开始形成密度跃层，与此同时底层DO浓度和pH开始下降；8月底层呈现明显的低氧和酸化状态，DO浓度下降至2～3 mg/L，pH下降至7.8以下；9月随着层化消失，底层水体DO浓度和pH逐渐升高。相关性分析显示，DO和叶绿素a (Chl a)以及pH具有良好的耦合性，说明秦皇岛外海区域的低氧发生过程主要为局地变化。同时表明DO浓度和pH主要受水体中浮游植物的光合作用和有机物有氧分解的影响。通过箱式模型计算得到2017年6?8月密度跃层以下水体及沉积物耗氧速率为951～1193 mg/(m2·d)[平均为975 mg/(m2·d)]。综合来看，水体分层是秦皇岛外海低氧和酸化发生的先决条件，跃层以下的有机物分解耗氧则是底层水体发生低氧和酸化的重要原因。 相似文献

The detailed distribution of algal chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments was determined around the halocline (freshwater-seawater interface) in the Krka Estuary on the east coast of the Adriatic Sea; in May 1988. After collection of water along the estuary, particulate matter was extracted and analyzed for pigments by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with absorbance and fluorescence detection. Bottom marine waters were characterized by lower chlorophyll a (chl a) concentrations than encountered in surface waters, decreasing downstream from 0.50 μg l−1 to 0.16 μg l−1 at the marine end-member. The highest concentrations of chl α (up to 26.34 μg l−1) were found in the interfacial layer, an particularly at one station located off the city of
ibenik, where high inputs of nutrients supported the accumulation of living algae at the halocline. Fucoxanthin was the most abundant carotenoid, which indicates a euryhaline dominance of diatoms in the estuary, whereas the dinoflagellate-derived carotenoid peridinin was confined to the interfacial and bottom saline waters of the inner estuary. High concentrations of alloxanthin and chl b were found in the interfacial layer, which also suggests an accumulation of Cryptophyceae and green algae in the inner estuary. Phaeophorbides showed higher concentrations in bottom waters than in surface waters, whereas the highest concentrations occurred in the interfacial layer. These high levels could reflect a density trapping of dead cells in an early degradation state, as suggested by the importance of allomerized chl a and chlorophyllide a vs. total chl a, or of faecal pellets originating from zooplankton grazing in the interfacial layer. 相似文献

Concentrations of mercury were determined for the waters, suspended matter and sediments of the Tagus and of major French estuaries.The Tagus estuary is one of the most contaminated by mercury derived from the outfalls of a chloralkali plant and from other industrial sources. In deposited sediments the median level, 1·0 μg Hg g?1, is twenty times higher than the natural background and Hg contents depend on the sediment grain-size, age and the distance from waste-outfalls. Suspended matter is more regularly and highly contaminated (median value: 4·5 μg Hg g?1). In the French estuaries Hg levels in the suspended material decrease with salinity due to dilution and/or remobilization processes. In June 1982, in the Loire estuary, high values of Hg are observed in the middle estuary and attributed to urban and industrial sources.In the Tagus estuary, the general distribution of total dissolved Hg confirms the contamination: it increases seaward from 10 ng 1?1 in the river to 80 ng 1?1 in the estuary outlet. The dissolved Hg is almost totally organic in the river, inorganic in the middle estuary due to inorganic Hg effluents and again organic in the lower estuary. This variation is related to the dissolved organic carbon values. The dissolved Hg levels in the Loire Estuary (5–300 ng 1?1) are much higher than in the Gironde estuary (3–6 ng 1?1) and of the same order as those observed in the Tagus estuary. 相似文献

The thermohaline and hydrochemical characteristics of the Lena River’s estuarine zone were investigated in the Buor-Khaya
Bay and the southeastern Laptev Sea in September of 2005. A tongue of river water with high nutrient content and increased
turbidity was identified in the bay. It is shown that the two-layer structure in the bay is disturbed by warm freshwater lenses.
The strong vertical stratification in the shelf zone results in sharply contrasting characteristics of the surface and bottom
waters. It is established that the concentrations of biogenic elements regularly change depending on the thermohaline characteristics
of the waters and their stratification degree. Stagnant bottom waters with low dissolved oxygen contents and high concentrations
of phosphates, nitrates, and ammonium are recorded in the eastern part of the bay. The bottom waters have different hydrochemical
characteristics due to their different origin. 相似文献

According to the results of the international expedition aboard the R/Vs Roger Revelle and Professor Khromov in the summer 1999, areas with low oxygen contents (below 210 μM/kg) and those with increased contents of dissolved inorganic carbon and phosphates were found that roughly coincided with one another. These areas are located near the bottom on the southwestern slope of the Tsushima Basin in the region of the Korea Strait and on the continental slope in the region of the Tatar Strait in the northern part of the sea at about 46° N. The set of hydrochemical data points to a high geochemical activity in the near-bottom layer of the areas noted. This activity is confirmed by direct observations of the composition of the interstitial water in the sediments collected in the northern part of the sea during the expedition of R/V Akademik M.A. Lavrent’ev in 2003. It was supposed that the main cause of the increased geochemical activity is the runoff of suspended and dissolved matter from the Korea and Tatar straits. In the areas mentioned, the near-bottom waters are characterized by low values of the nitrogen-phosphorus ratio (below 10), which is geochemical proof of the denitrification process occurring under the conditions of high oxygen concentrations characteristic of the Sea of Japan. Based on the value of the annual production in the Sea of Japan, a rate of denitrification equal to 3.4 × 1012 gN/year was calculated. Hence, it is confirmed that the geochemical processes in the near-bottom layer have a direct influence on the spatiotemporal characteristics of the hydrochemical properties of the waters of the Sea of Japan. 相似文献

The nitrogen isotopic composition of dissolved nitrate (δ15N-NO3−) in surface water of the Yangtze River estuary was determined in four seasons of 2006. δ15N-NO3− ranged from 0.4‰ to 6.5‰ and varied with seasons and geographic regions, reflecting the dynamics of nitrogen cycling in the estuarine ecosystem. δ15N-NO3− was markedly lower in February than in other seasons and exhibited conservative mixing, which was probably attributed to the NO3− being sourced from the atmospheric deposition and agricultural fertilizer. In the upper estuary, the influence of riverine inputs was important during all surveys. In the turbidity maximum zone, nitrification was found with nitrate depleted in 15N in May, whereas denitrification resulting in heavy δ15N-NO3− played an important role in August. More enriched δ15N-NO3− values coinciding with losses of nitrate concentrations based on the conservative mixing model were found in the adjacent marine area in May, and may reflect obvious phytoplankton assimilation of dissolved nitrate. In this manner, δ15N-NO3− may be a sensitive indicator of nitrogen sources and biogeochemical processing existing in this estuary in conjunction with the variations of dissolved nitrate and other environmental factors. 相似文献

The concentrations of rare earth elements in the dissolved, acid-soluble and residual phases in surface waters of the Changjiang
Estuary were determined using ICP-MS. The main purposes of the study are to understand the estuarine geochemistry of rare
earth elements and to explore water-particle interactions in the Changjiang estuarine mixing zone. The results show that there
are two distinct processes operating on dissolved rare earth elements in the estuary: large scale removal at low salinities
due to salt-induced coagulation and remarkable release at mid to high salinities. These processes result in modification of
the effective river water flux and the systematical fractionation of the dissolved rare earth elements toward the East China
Sea. The increase in concentration of dissolved rare earth elements in the mid to high salinity waters of the Changjiang Estuary
suggests a sediment source in the mixing zone of the estuary, which is located over a shallow, broad shelf where there is
extensive physical contact between bottom sediment and estuarine waters. Acid-soluble rare earth elements, the concentrations
of which also dropped sharply in the low salinity region, appear to be controlled by salt-induced coagulation process and
intense deposition of suspended particulate matter in the low salinity region. In the mid to high salinities, all acid-soluble
rare earth element concentrations increase slightly with increasing salinity, suggesting that resuspension of sediments occurred.
In contrast, the residual rare earth element concentrations are relatively constant with salinity variation in the Changjiang
estuarine surface waters. 相似文献

The effect of environmental factors (river discharge, water temperature and dissolved oxygen saturation) on the abundance and distribution of Acartia populations and the interactions between their congenerics was evaluated by means of transfer function (TF) models in the estuary of Bilbao during the period 1998–2005. The recorded species were Acartia clausi, Acartia tonsa, Acartia margalefi and Acartia discaudata. Acartia clausi dominated in the entire euhaline region of this estuary until 2003 when it was displaced from the inner part by A. tonsa. This invasive species (A. tonsa) was found for the first time in 2001 and colonized successfully the inner (salinity 30) and intermediate (salinity 33) waters of this estuary since 2003. The TF models revealed an immediate and negative effect of A. tonsa on A. clausi in the intermediate salinity (33) waters, where these species showed the highest spatial overlap. The results indicate that environmental changes from 2003 influenced the abundance of Acartia species, being unfavourable for A. clausi. The decrease of A. clausi abundance in low salinity waters was related to a significant decrease of dissolved oxygen saturation levels, whereas the increase of temperature was linked to a significant increase of A. tonsa. Acartia margalefi and A. discaudata were scarce over the entire period, but they were found to be valuable indicators of hydrological changes, which were associated to climate factors. These two latter species increased in abundance and expanded their seasonal distribution, and in the case of A. margalefi also its spatial distribution, in 2002, coinciding with the period in the time-series when autumn–winter rainfall and summer temperatures were lowest, and dissolved oxygen saturation levels were highest. 相似文献

Evidence from geochemical tracers (salinity, oxygen, silicate, nutrients, alkalinity, dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), carbon isotopes (δ13CDIC) and radiocarbon (Δ14C)) collected during the Pacific Ocean World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) voyages (P10, P15, P17 and P19) indicate there are three main water types at intermediate depths in the Pacific Ocean; North Pacific Intermediate Water (NPIW), Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) and Equatorial Pacific Intermediate Waters (EqPIW). We support previous suggestions of EqPIW as a separate equatorial intermediate depth water as it displays a distinct geochemical signature characterised by low salinity, low oxygen, high nutrients and low Δ14C (older radiocarbon). Using the geochemical properties of the different intermediate depth waters, we have mapped out their distribution in the main Pacific Basin.From the calculated pre-formed δ13Cair–sea conservative tracer, it is evident that EqPIW is a combination of AAIW parental waters, while quasi-conservative geochemical tracers, such as radiocarbon, also indicate mixing with old upwelling Pacific Deep Waters (PDW). The EqPIW also displays a latitudinal asymmetry in non-conservative geochemical tracers and can be further split into North (NEqPIW) and South (SEqPIW) separated at ～2°N. The reason for this asymmetry is caused by higher surface diatom production in the north driven by higher silicate concentrations.The δ13C signature measured in benthic foraminifera, Cibicidoides spp. (δ13CCib), from four core tops bathed in AAIW, SEqPIW and NPIW, reflects that of the overlying intermediate depth waters. The δ13CCib from these cores show similarities and variations down-core that highlight changes in mixing over the last 30,000 yr BP. The reduced offset between the δ13CCib of AAIW and SEqPIW during the last glacial indicates that AAIW might have had an increased influence in the eastern equatorial Pacific (EEP) region at this time. Additional intermediate depth cores and other paleo-geochemical proxies such as Cd/Ca and radiocarbon are required from the broader Pacific Ocean to further understand changes in intermediate depth water formation, circulation and mixing over glacial/interglacial cycles. 相似文献

An area of about 40000 km2 of desalinated upper layer waters with a salinity of less than 25 psu was found during cruise 54 of the R/V Akademik Mstislav Keldysh in the southwestern part of the Kara Sea (September 2007). Close to the boundary of this region located near the eastern
coast of Novaya Zemlya, the salinity was less than 16 psu. The thickness of the desalinated layer was about 10 m. The results
of the chemical analysis revealed that the observed desalination of the sea water was produced, first of all, by the Yenisei
River, while the contribution of the Ob River’s waters was secondary. However, the most desalinated region near the eastern
coast of Novaya Zemlya was separated from the Ob-Yenisei estuary and corresponded to a quasi-isolated lens. It is likely that
the formation of this lens, as well as the major part of the desalinated upper layer waters, occurred in June when the flood
of the Yenisei was maximal, while the further drift of the desalinated waters to the west of the Ob-Yenisei estuary was forced
by the prevailing northern wind. The additional desalination (by 2–3 psu and even more) of the upper layer waters near the
eastern coast of Novaya Zemlya might be related to the melting of the Novozemelskiy ice massif. The regularities of the temporal
evolution of the upper desalinated layer, as well as the influence of this layer on the hydrological structure and dynamics
of the southwestern Kara Sea, are discussed. 相似文献

为研究黄河入海径流变化条件下河口附近海域盐度扩散特征,以更好地保护河口海域生物资源多样性,本文以黄河下游利津水文站的长序列实测径流数据资料为基础,利用近海水动力模型FVCOM,分析径流变化对黄河口海域盐度的影响规律。结果表明：黄河口与莱州湾之间存在顺时针的环流系统,在余流作用以及涨落潮方向的影响下,黄河冲淡水长期向莱州湾扩散;丰水期黄河冲淡水几乎影响了整个莱州湾,27盐度锋可以到达莱州湾中部,27等盐线的表层包络面积为2 665.61 km2,占莱州湾的1/4左右,枯水期低盐度水只有向南扩散的趋势,27以下的低盐度水集中分布在黄河口门附近,27等盐线的表层包络面积只有199.65 km2;5月份,随着入海径流量增加,27等盐线扩散的范围、距离、方向都会发生明显变化。在对近海生物资源有迫切保护需求的情景下,适当减少其他用水户供水量以增加入海生态径流量,可以有效改善黄河口海域附近的盐度情况,为生物资源的生长繁殖创造良好条件。 相似文献
