The conditional acid dissociation constants (pKa′) of two sulfonephthalein dyes, thymol blue (TB) and m-cresol purple (mCP), were assessed throughout the estuarine salinity range (0<S<40) using a tris/tris–HCl buffer and spectrophotometric measurement. The salinity dependence of the pKa′ of both dyes was fitted to the equations (25 °C, total proton pH scale, mol kg soln−1):
The estimated accuracy of pH measurements using these calculated pKa′ values is considered to be comparable to that possible with careful use of a glass electrode (±0.01 pH unit) but spectrophotometric measurements in an estuary have the significant advantage that it is not necessary to calibrate an electrode at different salinities. pH was measured in an estuary over a tidal cycle with a precision of ±0.0005 pH unit at high (S>30) salinity, and ±0.002 pH unit at low (S<5) salinity. The pH increased rapidly in the lower salinity ranges (0<S<15) but less rapidly at higher salinities.  相似文献

Ideally, the correction of the measured CO2 fugacity (fCO2) at temperature Tm to fCO2 at the in-situ temperature Tin should be made by using at least 2 known parameters (pH-AT, CT-AT,…) and the reliable constants for carbonic acid. In practice however, a measured CO2 property pair is not always available. When fCO2 is measured alone, one must make an estimate of the effect of temperature on seawater fCO2 from the accurate knowledge of seawater salinity and temperature and the approximate knowledge of the carbonate parameters. In this paper we present an empirical relationship that can be used to estimate the effect of temperature on fCO2. The equation is of the form:
ƒCO2[t] − ƒCO2[20]=A + Bt + Ct2 + Dt3 + Et4
where fCO2[t] and fCO2[20] represent fCO2 at temperatures t°C and 20°C, respectively; the parameters A, B, etc. are functions of the ratio X = CT/AT:
E = e0 + e1X + e2X2ln(X) + e3exp(X) + e4/ln(X)
where the parameters ai, bi, etc. are functions of salinity.The 25-parameter equation is fitted by the values of fCO2 calculated using the constants of Goyet and Poisson (1989), when X varies from 0.8 to 1.0, t varies from −1dgC to 40°C, and S varies from 30 to 40. For Tm - Tin within ± 10°C, direct measurements of fCO2 as a function of the temperature (from −I to 30°C verify this equation within less than ±5 μatm.  相似文献

The Anegada Passage (sensu lato) includes several basins and ridges from Southeast of Puerto Rico to the corner of the Virgin Islands Platform. Seabeam (Seacarib I) and Gloria long-range sidescan sonar surveys were carried out in this area. These new data allow us to propose an interpretation of the Anegada Passage.Most of the features described are related to wrench faulting:
(a)  St Croix and Virgin Islands Basins are pull-apart basins created in a right-lateral strike-slip environment based on their rhomboidal shape and seismic data (e.g. the flower structure). These two pull-aparts are divided into two sub-basins by a curvilinear normal fault in the Virgin Islands Basin and a right-lateral strike-slip fault in the St Croix Basin.
(b)  Tortola Ridge and a dog's leg shaped structure are inferred to be restraining bends between two right-lateral strike-slip faults.
(c)  We identified two ENE-WSW volcanic lineaments in the eastern area and one volcano lying between Virgin Islands and St Croix Basins.
(d)  As shown by the seismic activity main wrench motion occurs along the north slope of Virgin Islands Basin and through Anegada Passage. A branching of this main fault transmits the transtensional motion to St Croix Basin.

The pK1* and pK2* for the dissociation of carbonic acid in seawater have been determined from 0 to 45°C and S = 5 to 45. The values of pK1* have been determined from emf measurements for the cell:
Pt](1 − X)H2 + XCO2|NaHCO3, CO2 in synthetic seawater|AgC1; Ag
where X is the mole fraction of CO2 in the gas. The values of pK2* have been determined from emf measurements on the cell:
Pt, H2(g, 1 atm)|Na2CO3, NaHCO3 in synthethic seawater|AgC1; Ag
The results have been fitted to the equations:
lnK*1 = 2.83655 − 2307.1266/T − 1.5529413 lnT + (−0.20760841 − 4.0484/T)S0.5 + 0.08468345S − 0.00654208S1
InK*2 = −9.226508 − 3351.6106/T− 0.2005743 lnT + (−0.106901773 − 23.9722/T)S0.5 + 0.1130822S − 0.00846934S1.5
where T is the temperature in K, S is the salinity, and the standard deviations of the fits are σ = 0.0048 in lnK1* and σ = 0.0070 in lnK2*.Our new results are in good agreement at S = 35 (±0.002 in pK1*and ±0.005 in pK2*) from 0 to 45°C with the earlier results of Goyet and Poisson (1989). Since our measurements are more precise than the earlier measurements due to the use of the Pt, H2|AgCl, Ag electrode system, we feel that our equations should be used to calculate the components of the carbonate system in seawater.  相似文献

Wave interaction with T-type breakwaters   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The wave transmission, reflection and energy dissipation characteristics of partially submerged ‘T'-type breakwaters (Fig. 1) were studied using physical models. Regular and random waves, with wide ranges of wave heights and periods and a constant water depth were used. Five different depths of immersions of the ‘T'-type breakwater were selected. The coefficient of transmission, Kt, coefficient reflection, Kr, were obtained from the measurements and the coefficient of energy loss, Kl is calculated using the law of conservation of energy. It is found that the coefficient of transmission generally reduces with increased wave steepness and increased relative water depth, d/L. This breakwater is found to be effective closer to deep-water conditions. Kt values less than 0.35 is obtained for both normal and high input wave energy levels, when the horizontal barrier of the T type breakwater is immersed to about 7% of the water depth. This breakwater is also found to be very efficient in dissipating the incident wave energy to an extent of about 65% (i.e. Kl>0.8), especially for high input wave energy levels. The wave climate in front of the breakwater is also measured and studied.

Chemical characterization and quantitative determination of dissolved low molecular weight carbohydrates in Mikawa Bay near Nagoya, Japan were conducted. The water samples were collected during the period of algal bloom of the dinoflagellate Prorocentrum minimum on 31 May 1980.Low molecular weight carbohydrates in seawater samples from depths of 1 and 6 m were first retained on a charcoal column and then eluted with aqueous ethanol. The carbohydrates obtained were permethylated and then isolated into each of the components by thin layer chromatography. The sugars isolated were characterized by gas chromatography (GC), combined gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC-MS), proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR) and some chemical analyses. Laminaribiose, laminaritriose, sucrose, raffinose,
,
were fully characterized and quantified with ranges from 2.3 to 27.7 μg l−1 and from 0.5 to 17.8 μg l−1.These low molecular weight carbohydrates were also identified, with some difference in their relative abundance, in particulate matter consisting mainly of dinoflagellate cells collected on the same occasion from this bay. These results indicate that low molecular weight carbohydrates dissolved in seawater are directly derived from those of phytoplankton through extracellular release or cell lysis.  相似文献

A correction formula is theoretically derived to evaluate the change in partial pressure of carbon dioxide in seawater upon heating. The constraints on the heating process are constant salinity, total alkalinity, and total carbon dioxide concentration. The result is
. This equation fits δPCO2/δt for open ocean seawater compositions to within approximately 9%. The almost constant 4.4%/°C effect is in agreement with that measured by Kanwisher (1960).  相似文献

Rapid and precise measurement method for adsorbed

A new method has been developed for the determination of adsorbed

on sediments. The method utilizes sediments directly in a closed loop counting system and measures the daughter

. Because the recoil path length of

is small compared to the sediment particle size, adsorbed

is released to the gases circulating in the closed loop

counting system and

produced internally within the sediment particles is effectively excluded. The method has been calibrated against (1) multi-step Na+ displacement of

and (2) multi-step Zn2+ replacement of

. It has been found to accurately quantify the adsorbed component with a significant savings in laboratory time and with greater precision. Combined with dissolved

measurements of the porewater, distribution coefficients can be accurately calculated. This method has potential for direct application to water column

balances in estuaries, coastal water and salt marshes. When used to extract the reactive transport dynamics of

in the sediment, the method may have applications to trace metal transport in sediments.  相似文献

I am deeply honored to have been awarded the 1988 Okada Prize of the Oceanographical Society of Japan. The present paper reviews my previous works regarding the ecology of deep-sea meiobenthos in the western Pacific area. The outline cen be summarized as follows:
1)  On the basis of multivariate analyses, it was found that the rate of the organic-matter flux to the sea bed and the amount of the interstitial space within the sediment are the main factors regulating the abundance of meiofauna in the deep sea.
2)  Two indices were proposed to characterize the vertical distribution of meiofauna in the sediment profile,i.e. their maximum depth in the sediment and the degree of their concentration in the surface layer of the sediment. The index of maximum depth was closely related to the oxygen concentration in the interstitial water. On the other hand, the index of degree of concentration in the surface of the sediment tended to be higher where the supply of food seemed lower.
3)  Some taxonomically important species were found from the axis of the Izu-Ogasawara Trench. They arePliciloricus hadalis, the first species of the newest phylum Loricifera from the Pacific area, from the hadal deep sea and the fine clay sediment, andOccultammina profunda, the first infaunal species of Xenophyophorea, a group of rhizopod Protozoa.
4)  The vertical distribution ofOccultammina profunda coincided well with the unusual distribution of210Pb in the sediment profile. The organisms concentrated as high as 500 dpm g–1 of210Pb in their stercomare and granellare. The steady state model confirmed that the species made the peculiar subsurface peak of210Pb in the sediment.
5)  The depth in the sediment profile where the distinct peak of MnO2 can be seen showed strong correlation with the vertical distribution of meiofauna. This relationship suggests that oxygen concentration in the interstitial water regulates the structure of the characteristic three layers of the calcareous ooze in the deep sea. This idea was proven by the vertical distribution of free oxygen in the sediment calculated on the basis of respiration rate of deep-sea meiofauna measured using the cartesian diver technique.
6)  Radio-isotope techniques used to measure the rates at which particulated organic matter was ingested and dissolved organic matter was absorbed, suggested that deep-sea meiofauna obtained a significant fraction of their energy by absorption.
7)  The work carried out so far has revealed the important role of meiofauna in the benthic ecosystem, and emphasized the necessity for intensive research from various points of views on these microscopic organisms.

Tides and tidal currents in the Tusima Strait are described, and cotidal charts are re-edited on the basis of intensive analysis of observed data. Some remarkable features are revealed as follows;
(a)  The amphidromic points of the K1 and O1 tides are remarkably shifted toward the Korean coast compared to Ogura's traditional charts.
(b)  The amphidromic point of the O1 tide is detected at a position further southwest than that of the K1 tide.
(c)  The anti-amphidromic areas for the semidiurnal tides are located in the southwestern region of the strait and they are close to the Korean coast.
(d)  Remarkable amplitude gaps are found between the east and west coasts of the Tusima Islands; the amplitude on the west coast is larger than that on the east coast.
Close examination of each term in the momentum equation reveals that the M2 and S2 tides are standing waves which have phases of tides about 90 degrees different from those of the tidal current, and the K1 and O1 tides are understood with a composite of the incident and reflected Kelvin waves.  相似文献

The Tushima Current in the east channel was measured in a site of the strong current between Tushima and Iki Islands for 43 days of the winter in 1986. The primary results are:First, it was highly barotropic and flowed northeastward with a mean speed of about 20 cm sec–1. Second, it was decelerated by northeast winds rather than by northwest winds in a frequency range of 0.3 and 0.4 cpd. Third, the scale analysis showed that the Tushima Current is approximately in geostrophic balance. The best empirical relationship between the measured Tushima Current and cross-channel adjusted sea level difference is given bywhere k (M− 2 s− 1) can be determined from the

where H2A = H2CrO4, HA = HCrO4, H2B = H2SO3 and HB = HSO3. The overall rate expression over the investigated pH range can be determined from

with kH2A−H2B = 5.0 × 107, kHA–H2B = 1.5 × 106 and kH2A–HB = 6.7 × 107.Fe(III) in the range 1.5 to 20 μM exerts a small catalytic effect on the reaction and significantly lowers the initial concentration of Cr(VI) compared to the nominal value. Contrary to Fe(III), formaldehyde (20 to 200 μM) reacts with S(IV) to form the hydroxymethanesulfonate adduct (CH2OHSO3), which does not react with Cr(VI). Major cations Mg2+ and some minor elements such as Ba2+ and Cu2+ did not affect the rates. The application of this rate law to environmental conditions suggest that this reaction may have a role in acidic solutions (aerosols and fog droplets). This reaction becomes more important in the presence of high Fe(III) and low HMS concentrations, contributing to affect the atmospheric transport of chromium species and the distribution of redox species of chromium, which reach surface water from atmospheric depositions.  相似文献

The rates of the reduction of Cr(VI) with S(IV) were measured in deaerated NaCl solution as a function of pH, temperature and ionic strength. The rates of the reaction were found to be first order with respect to Cr(VI) and second order with respect to S(IV), in agreement with previous results obtained at concentrations two order higher than the present study. The reaction also showed a first-order dependence of the rates on the concentration of the proton and a small influence of temperature with an apparent energy of activation ΔHapp of 22.8 ± 3.4 kJ/mol. The rates were independent of ionic strength from 0.01 to 1 M. The rate of Cr(VI) reduction is described by the general expression
−d[Cr(VI)]/dt=k[Cr(VI)][S(IV)]2
