Various investigators reported a decrease in pH as seawater is concentrated. A similar phenomenon was reported for Dead Sea waters which are about ten times more saline than seawater. The reasons for the low pH values of Dead Sea waters (pH 5.9–6.5), which precipitate CaCO3, were investigated by determining the apparent dissociation constants of carbonic acid in these brines. A new method, based on alkalinity titration and least-squares fitting, was used to estimate the proton activity coefficient (γH+) and the first and second dissociation constants of carbonic acid (K1′, K2′) in natural and artificial Dead Sea waters. It was found that as the salt content increases, pK′1 and pK′2 values progressively decrease whereas γH+ sharply increase. At the highest salinity investigated (TDS = 330 gl?1) γH+ pK′1 and pK′2 values are 24.5, 5.09 and 6.23, respectively, as compared to about 0.8, 5.9, 9.1 respectively for normal seawater (19‰ chlorinity) at the same temperature (30°C).The implication of the results of this study regarding solubility of CaCO3 and the general behavior of the carbonate system in hypersaline solutions is discussed. 相似文献

The densities of artificial and real Red Sea brines have been measured at 25°C with a vibrating tube densimeter. Measurements were also made on mixtures of Red Sea brines with seawater and pure water. The results have been used to characterize the density—composition relations of waters across the interface of brine and average Red Sea waters. The results for the real and artificial brines are in reasonable agreement.The composition of the brines and mixtures with seawater have been characterized by conductivity measurements of weight diluted samples. The conductivity salinities were found to be conservative to within for the mixtures.The densities of brines and mixtures of brines and seawater were estimated from apparent molal volume data using Young's rule. The calculated densities for all of the solutions were found to be in good agreement with the measured values, demonstrating the applicability of Young's rule to concentrated natural waters. 相似文献

Gypsum solubility in mixtures of Dead Sea and Mediterranean Sea waters at different ratios and in their concentrates obtained by evaporation simulation have been calculated using the Pitzer model as formulated by Harvie and Weare (1980). The results obtained are compared with available experimental gypsum solubility data in different natural brines, sea water, sea water concentrates and NaCl solutions. The agreement between theoretically calculated and experimental solubility values is fairly good and is within the range of scatter of the individual solubility measurements. 相似文献

The solubilities of halite in Dead Sea waters and in their mixtures with Mediterranean Sea waters were estimated using Pitzer's equations. The calculated halite saturation for Dead Sea waters sampled at various occasions during 1979–1983 is in good agreement with the naturally observed phenomenon of halite deposition at this time. A halite saturation curve for mixtures of Dead Sea and Mediterranean Sea waters has been obtained and permits the prediction of halite deposition in these mixtures on evaporation. 相似文献

The distribution of the total alkalinity (TA), the total inorganic carbon (TCO2), the calcium (Ca), and the CO2 partial pressure in the waters of the northwestern Bering Sea (Anadyr Bay) and in the western part of the Chukchi Sea is
considered according to the data obtained in August–September 2002. It is shown that the areas treated were sinks of atmospheric
CO2 in the summer of 2002: the total CO2 exchange between the atmosphere and the seawater was equal to about −20 mmol C/(m2 day). The net community production according to the TCO2 decrease in the upper photic layer in the west of the Chukchi Sea and in the Anadyr Bay waters amounted to 48 ± 12 and 72
± 18 g C/(m2 year), respectively. The comparison with historical data allows one to tell about the pronounced increase of the TCO2, TA, and Ca concentrations in the waters of Anadyr Bay and in the western part of the Chukchi Sea in the summer 2002. The
processes that might have caused the changes observed are the enrichment of the estuarine waters in marine salts under the
ice formation in winter and the decrease of the supply of the waters of the Bering Slope Current to the northwestern part
of the Bering Sea. 相似文献

The circulation of intermediate and deep waters in the Philippine Sea west of the Izu-Ogasawara-Mariana-Yap Ridge is estimated
with use of an inverse model applied to the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) Hydrographic Program data set. Above
1500 m depth, the subtropical gyre is dominant, but the circulation is split in small cells below the thermocline, causing
multiple zonal inflows of intermediate waters toward the western boundary. The inflows along 20°N and 26°N carry the North
Pacific Intermediate Water (NPIW) of 11 × 109 kg s−1 in total, at the density range of 26.5σθ–36.7σ2 (approximately 500–1500 m depths), 8 × 109 kg s−1 of the NPIW circulate within the subtropical gyre, whereas the rest is conveyed to the tropics and the South China Sea. The
inflow south of 15°N carries the Tropical Salinity Minimum water of 35 × 109 kg s−1, nearly half of which return to the east through a narrow undercurrent at 15–17°N, and the rest is transported into the lower
part of the North Equatorial Countercurrent. Below 1500 m depth, the deep circulation regime is anti-cyclonic. At the density
range of 36.7σ2, – 45.845σ4 (approximately 1500–3500 m depths), deep waters of 17 × 109 kg s−1 flow northward, and three quarters of them return to the east at 16–24°N. The remainder flows further north of 24°N, then
turns eastward out of the Philippine Sea, together with a small amount of subarctic-origin North Pacific Deep Water (NPDW)
which enters the Philippine Sea through the gap between the Izu Ridge and Ogasawara Ridge. The full-depth structure and transportation
of the Kuroshio in total and net are also examined. It is suggested that low potential vorticity of the Subtropical Mode Water
is useful for distinguishing the net Kuroshio flow from recirculation flows.

Latitudinal changes (6°S-20°N) of summer ciliate abundance and species compositions in surface waters from the Java Sea to the South China Sea 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Ciliates play a curial role in energy transfer from pico-and nano-phytoplankton to mesozooplankton in marine ecosystems. In order to visualize their geographical distributions from the Java Sea to the South China Sea (6°S to 20°N), the authors investigated the ciliate abundance and species composition in surface waters during May 18 to 27 of 2010. The ciliate abundance decreased latitudinally from 3 080 ind./L (～6°S) to 40 ind./L (～3°N), and then increased to 1 180 ind./L (～16°N) at the end of the survey. A total of 22 ciliates belonging to 15 genera were identified with the tintinnids accounted for 50% (11 species); and the species number showed a same spatial change as the ciliate abundance. Moreover, the Strombidium occupied over 50% of total ciliate abundance in most stations and Mesodinium and Tintinnopsis contributed to about 18.7% and 11.4%, respectively. In particular, our results indicate that the geographical changes in ciliate abundance were positively regulated by larger nano-and micro-phytoplankton biomass, rather than smaller pico-phytoplankton in the investigated waters. 相似文献

The trophic ecology, energy and reproductive states of the deep-water shrimp Aristaeomorpha foliacea, widely distributed along the slopes of the Mediterranean Sea Basins, were analysed in eight areas spread along ca. 3000 km in order to identify patterns in the habitat conditions supporting the species. From W to E the areas were situated between the north side of Eivissa (39°12′N, 1°20′E, in the Balearic Basin) and off Mersin, Turkey (36°15′N, 34°19′E, in the Levantine Sea). Trends identified mainly as a function of longitude from west to east were: (i) higher δ15N, parallel to δ15N shifts in the top 200 m of the water column for particulate organic N (Pantoja et al., 2002). The δ15N trend indicates that the deep trophic web, i.e. A. foliacea at 400–600 m, reflects the δ15N signal of the photic zone; (ii) a similar significant trend of δ13C, related with exploitation of pelagic versus benthic resources by A. foliacea in each area (i.e. by local variability of terrigenous inputs via submarine canyons). More depleted δ13C was found at mid-longitudes (Tyrrhenian Sea and Sicily Channel) linked to higher consumption of macroplankton prey (Pasiphaea spp., euphausiids and mesopelagic fishes). The feeding intensity (gut fullness, F) and prey diversity (J) of A. foliacea were related, according to generalized linear models, with the temperature and salinity of intermediate waters, variables in turn associated with latitude and longitude. Both F and J were higher in areas with greater shrimp density. The optimal ecological habitat of A. foliacea appears to be located in the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Sicily Channel, where we found the highest F, the greatest trophic diversity and A. foliacea in the best biological condition (i.e. with higher hepato-somatic index, HSI). These are also the areas with the highest densities of A. foliacea. In contrast, in the western Mediterranean Sea (Balearic Basin and the southern Balearic Islands), where A. foliacea has low densities, the shrimp showed generally lower values of trophic indicators and biological condition. 相似文献

The temperature minimum layer, called “dichothermal water”, is a characteristic feature of the North Pacific subarctic gyre.
In particular, dichothermal water having a density of approximately 26.6 sigma-theta (σθ), which corresponds to the densest water outcropping in winter in the North Pacific, is seen in the Bering Sea. In order
to clarify the water properties, and the area in which and the process by which the dichothermal water is formed, a new seasonal
mean gridded climatological dataset with a fine resolution for the Bering Sea and adjacent seas has been prepared using historically
accumulated hydrographic data. Although the waters of the Alaskan Stream have temperature minimum layers, their temperature
inversions are very weak in climatologies and the core densities of the temperature minimum layers are much lighter than 26.6σθ. On the other hand, in the Bering Sea one can see the robust structure of temperature minimum layers, the core density of
the dichothermal water being around 26.6σθ. In addition, it has been found that the properties of the dichothermal water observed in the warming season are almost the
same as those in the winter mixed layer. That is, the dichothermal waters are formed in the winter mixed layer in the Bering
Sea. Since these waters are found in the Kamchatka Strait, i.e., the main exit of the Bering Sea waters, it can be supposed
that the dichothermal waters are exported from the Bering Sea to the Pacific Ocean by the Kamchatka Current.

The Aral Sea is an important water area both for monitoring and oceanological studies, because its salinity and salt composition strongly differ from the oceanic. We offer a semiempiric calculation method of electric conductivity and the coefficient of its temperature dependence k judging from the ionic composition of water. The properties of the solution are considered as the sum of properties of seven binary salts taken based on the ionic composition of the solution. The MgSO4 concentration is thought to be the highest possible, which makes the salt concentration nearly unambiguous. In a salinity range of 46–120‰ and temperature range of 5–25°C (2002–2009), the standard deviation of the calculated and measured electric conductivity was 2.9%. To refine the calculation of salinity from electric conductivity measurements using the “oceanic” formula, we suggest its preliminary reduction to a constant temperature (20°C) using the measured or calculated coefficient k. 相似文献

The paper considers the thermohaline structure of Black Sea abyssal and near-bottom waters on the basis of exact measurements
recorded in recent years under the HYDROBLACK and COMSBLACK international projects. The surface water mass (along with the
cold mixed layer), the intermediate, abyssal, and near-bottom masses are identified. The upper boundary of deep waters is
defined as a depth level where the density ratio decreases down to 0.1 This depth roughly corresponds to the 900–1100 m depth
levels. Furthermore, the paper provides potential temperature and salinily values in the near-bottom layer, with an error
of, respectively, 0.002°C and 0.002‰, at most.

Observations of the equilibrium partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the surface waters of the North Pacific Ocean and Bering Sea indicate conditions of local upwelling or vertical mixing near the Aleutian Island passes, seasonal depletion of CO2 in the sea surface by photosynthesis, and conditions of CO2 supersaturation in the surface waters off the mouths of large rivers. Horizontal mixing has a large effect on the PCO2 distribution. The area distribution of carbon dioxide in the surface waters of the Pacific Ocean from 19°N to 55°N latitude and in the Bering Sea is presented. 相似文献

Data on the distribution of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) were obtained during a cruise in the North Sea during late summer 2001. A 1° by 1° grid of 97 stations was sampled for DIC while the pCO2 was measured continuously between the stations. The surface distributions of these two parameters show a clear boundary located around 54°N. South of this boundary the DIC and pCO2 range from 2070 to 2130 μmol kg−1 and 290 to 490 ppm, respectively, whereas in the northern North Sea, values range between 1970 and 2070 μmol kg−1 and 190 to 350 ppm, respectively. The vertical profiles measured in the two different areas show that the mixing regime of the water column is the major factor determining the surface distributions. The entirely mixed water column of the southern North Sea is heterotrophic, whereas the surface layer of the stratified water column in the northern North Sea is autotrophic. The application of different formulations for the calculation of the CO2 air–sea fluxes shows that the southern North Sea acts as a source of CO2 for the atmosphere within a range of +0.8 to +1.7 mmol m−2 day−1, whereas the northern North Sea absorbs CO2 within a range of −2.4 to −3.8 mmol m−2 day−1 in late summer. The North Sea as a whole acts as a sink of atmospheric CO2 of −1.5 to −2.2 mmol m−2 day−1 during late summer. Compared to the Baltic and the East China Seas at the same period of the year, the North Sea acts a weak sink of atmospheric CO2. The anticlockwise circulation and the short residence time of the water in the North Sea lead to a rapid transport of the atmospheric CO2 to the deeper layer of the North Atlantic Ocean. Thus, in late summer, the North Sea exports 2.2×1012 g C month−1 to the North Atlantic Ocean via the Norwegian trench, and, at the same period, absorbs from the atmosphere a quantity of CO2 (0.4 1012 g C month−1) equal to 15% of that export, which makes the North Sea a continental shelf pump of CO2. 相似文献

The distribution of structural and functional characteristics of virioplankton in the north of the Ob River estuary and the adjacent Kara Sea shelf (between latitudes 71°44′44″ N and 73°45′24″ N) was studied with consideration of the spatial variations in the number (N B) and productivity (P B) of bacteria and water properties (temperature, salinity, density) by analyzing samples taken in September 2013. The number of plankton viruses (N V), the occurrence of visible infected bacteria cells, virus-induced mortality of bacteria, and virioplankton production in the studied region varied within (214?2917) × 103 particles/mL, 0.3?5.6% of NB, 2.2?64.4% of P B, and (6?17248) × 103 particles/(mL day), respectively. These parameters were the highest in water layers with a temperature of +7.3–7.5°C, salinity of 3.75?5.41 psu, and conventional density (στ) of 2.846?4.144. The number of bacterioplankton was (614?822) × 103 cells/mL, and the N V/N B ratio was 1.1?4.5. A large amount of virus particles were attached to bacterial cells and suspended matter. The data testify to the considerable role of viruses in controlling the number and production of heterotrophic bacterioplankton in the interaction zone of river and sea waters. 相似文献

Regularities of oxygen and hydrogen sulfide are examined, using the method of spatial isopycnic analysis. The contribution
that ventilation of winter-time surface waters over the domes of cyclonic gyres makes to the transfer of O2 towards the upper boundary of the constant pycnocline and to the oxicline layer is demonstrated. The paper provides spatial
scales of this phenomenon and indicates the areas where the upper boundary of the anoxic layer in the Black Sea, relative
to the conventional density, is located much higher compared with the rest of the sea. The suboxic zone is shown to be a specific
feature of the O2/H2S distribution in the Black Sea waters, typical, at least, of the northern part of the basin. Analysis of the suboxic spatial
variability in the vertical has been conducted.

海南岛近岸海域夏初浮游动物与环境因子的关系 总被引：4，自引：1，他引：3
根据2011年夏初在海南岛近岸海域采集的浮游动物样本,分析了该海域浮游动物的种类组成、优势种类、丰度、生态类群,生物多样性及均匀度,并对浮游动物与环境因子之间的关系进行了探讨。海南岛近岸海域共鉴定出终生性浮游动物164种,阶段性浮游幼体11个类群,其中以桡足类的种类最多,40属82种。优势种主要有棘皮动物幼体Echinodermata larva、鸟喙尖头溞Penilia avirostris、异体住囊虫Oikopleura dioica、长尾类幼体Macrura larva、肥胖软箭虫Ferosagitta enflata、羽长腹剑水蚤Oithona plumifera、小齿海樽Doliolum denticulatum、中型莹虾Lucifer intermedius、泡抱球虫Globigerina bulloides、微驼隆哲水蚤Acrocalanus gracilis等。海南岛近岸海域浮游动物丰度平均值为1 348.68ind/m3,东部海域浮游动物丰度最高,由近岸向远岸呈递减趋势,而北部湾海域和南部海域由近岸向远岸则呈先增后减的趋势。夏初由于受沿岸流和南海暖流的影响,海南岛近岸海域的生态类群以暖水沿岸种和广布暖水外海种为主。浮游动物多样性指数和均匀度平均值为3.03和0.72,东部海域的多样性指数和均匀度较低,主要原因是阶段性浮游幼体的偶然性暴发。相关性分析显示,海南岛近岸海域浮游动物丰度与pH值呈极显著负相关(p0.05,r=-0.360);与浮游植物丰度(PA)呈极显著正相关(p0.01,r=0.395);与盐度、DO、CODMn、NO3-N浓度、NH4-N浓度、PO4-P浓度成正相关,与温度、NO2-N浓度、SiO3-Si浓度呈负相关。 相似文献

The data of meteorological and oceanographic observations on the northwest shelf of the Black Sea for 1973–2000 are used to
compute the characteristics of the entire area in the presence of hypoxia of waters under the pycnocline in the summer–autumn
period and the area of surface waters with a level of salinity lower than 17.5‰ in May. The time of onset of the spring warming
of air (stable transition through a temperature of 5°) is determined. A statistically significant positive trend of the air
temperature (0.8° per 100 yr) is revealed in Odessa. The process of warming was observed mainly for the winter (1.5° per 100
yr) and spring (0.8° per 100 yr) periods and became especially intense since the beginning of the 1990s. On the basis of the
data of correlation analyses, we establish a statistically significant relationship between the large-scale atmospheric processes
[the index of North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the wind conditions], the area of surface waters whose salinity is lower
than 17.5‰, and the total area with hypoxia in the summer–autumn periods. For positive mean values of the NAO index (in January–March),
we most often observe early spring with elevated repetition of the south and west winds with subsequent development of hypoxia
in large areas of the northwest shelf. We propose an empirical regression model for the prediction of the total area of summer–autumn
hypoxia of waters with predictors: the onset of the spring warming of air and the area of propagation of waters whose salinity
is lower than 17.5‰ in May. The maximum error of prediction of the area with hypoxia does not exceed 5.5 ⋅ 103 km2, i.e., less than 2% of the total area of the northwest shelf in the Black Sea (to the north of 45°N). 相似文献
