Seasonal and inter-annual dynamics of mesoplankton in the northwestern Japan Sea     

Natalia T. Dolganova  Yury I. Zuenko 《Progress in Oceanography》2004,61(2-4):227

Based upon four decades of observations in the northwestern part of the Japan Sea, the seasonal and inter-annual variations of zooplankton abundance and species composition in the epipelagic layer are considered. Seasonal characteristics of the zooplankton community are described in detail for five domains that occur within this part of the Japan Sea. Inter-decadal variation was not significant, but inter-annual variation was considerable and generally opposite to water temperature changes in the upper layer. Exceptional years such as 1996 were noted when a maximum abundance of zooplankton in summer occurred along with a slowing of the seasonal pattern of succession.  相似文献   

The seasonal cycle of diabatic heat storage in the Pacific Ocean     

Warren B. White  Daniel R. Cayan  Peter P. Niiler  Gary Lagerloef  David Legler 《Progress in Oceanography》2005,64(1):1-29

This study quantifies uncertainties in closing the seasonal cycle of diabatic heat storage (DHS) over the Pacific Ocean from 20°S to 60°N through the synthesis of World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) reanalysis products from 1993 to 1999. These products are DHS from Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO); near-surface geostrophic and Ekman currents from Earth and Space Research (ESR); and air-sea heat fluxes from Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set (COADS), National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP), and European Center for Mid-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). With these products, we compute residual heat budget components by differencing long-term monthly means from the long-term annual mean. This allows the seasonal cycle of the DHS tendency to be modeled. Everywhere latent heat flux residuals dominate sensible heat flux residuals, shortwave heat flux residuals dominate longwave heat flux residuals, and residual Ekman heat advection dominates residual geostrophic heat advection, with residual dissipation significant only in the Kuroshio-Oyashio current extension. The root-mean-square (RMS) of the differences between observed and model residual DHS tendencies (averaged over 10° latitude-by-20° longitude boxes) is <20 W m⁻² in the interior ocean and <100 W m⁻² in the Kuroshio-Oyashio current extension. This reveals that the residual DHS tendency is driven everywhere by some mix of residual latent heat flux, shortwave heat flux, and Ekman heat advection. Suppressing bias errors in residual air-sea turbulent heat fluxes and Ekman heat advection through minimization of the RMS differences reduces the latter to <10 W m⁻² over the interior ocean and <25 W m⁻² in the Kuroshio-Oyashio current extension. This reveals air-sea temperature and specific humidity differences from in situ surface marine weather observations to be a principal source of bias error, overestimated over most of ocean but underestimated near the Intertropical Convergence Zone.  相似文献

由于车由岛周海域水比较浅，上下层混合得比较充分，营养盐的垂直分布较均匀，但在水平方向上差别较大。各种营养盐受生物活动、降雨和陆地经流的影响，有明显的季节变化。活性磷、硝酸盐和亚硝酸盐的浓度在冬季最高，春季最低；氨氮和活性硅的浓度则相反，夏季最高，秋季最低。  相似文献   

Assemblages of phytoplankton pigments along a shipping line through the North Atlantic and tropical Pacific     

Yves Dandonneau  Awa Niang 《Progress in Oceanography》2007,73(2):127-144

A set of phytoplankton pigment measurements collected on eight quarterly transects from France to New Caledonia is analyzed in order to identify the main assemblages of phytoplankton and to relate their occurrence to oceanic conditions. Pigment concentrations are first divided by the sum [monovinyl chlorophyll a plus divinyl chlorophyll a] to remove the effect of biomass, and second are normalized to give an equal weight to all pigments. The resulting 17 pigments × 799 observations matrix is then classified into 10 clusters using neural methodology. Eight out of these 10 clusters have a well marked regional or seasonal character, thus evidencing adapted responses of the phytoplankton communities. The main gradient opposes two clusters with high fucoxanthin and chlorophyll c₁₊₂ in the North Atlantic in January, April and July, to three clusters in the South Pacific Subtropical Gyre with high divinyl chlorophyll a, zeaxanthin and phycoerythrin. One of the clusters in the South Pacific Subtropical Gyre has relatively high zeaxanthin and phycoerythrin contents and dominates in November and February (austral summer), while another with relatively high divinyl chlorophylls a and b dominates in May and August (austral winter). The third one in the South Pacific is characterized by high carotene concentration and its occurrence peaks in February and May. In the equatorial current system, one cluster, rich in chlorophylls b and c₁₊₂, is strictly located in a narrow zone centred at the equator, while another with relatively high violaxanthin concentration is restricted to the high nutrient - low chlorophyll waters in only the southern part of the South Equatorial Current. One cluster with relatively high prasinoxanthin content has a spatial distribution spanning the entire South Equatorial Current. Two clusters have a ubiquitous distribution: one in the equatorial Pacific, the Carribbean Sea and the North Atlantic during summer has pigment concentrations close to the average of the entire dataset, and the other in the South Pacific Subtropical Gyre, the Carribbean Sea and the North Atlantic during autumn clearly has an oligotrophic character. Many of the differences between clusters are caused by diagnostic pigments of nano- or picoflagellates. While the space and time characteristics of the clusters are well marked and might correspond to differences in physical and chemical forcing, knowledge of the ecological requirements of these flagellates is generally lacking to explain how the variability of the environment triggers these clusters.  相似文献

Seasonal variations of wind and waves over Taiwan waters     

Beng-Chun Lee  Li-Chung Wu  Dong-Jiing Doong  Chia Chuen Kao 《Marine Geophysical Researches》2007,28(3):183-190

We here investigate the frequency and intensity of oscillations in oceanographic data within intraseasonal time scales using spectral analysis of surface wind and wave time-series data collected at off-island weather stations or moored buoys around Taiwan. Data from marine weather stations were used to trace atmospheric conditions, while we used buoy data to examine sea states. The spectra and wavelet scalogram of the wind fields revealed oscillations with a period of around 20–33 days, and the energy density of the wind field at the off-island stations was stronger than that at the data buoy stations. However, the wavelet scalogram of the wave height measured at the buoy stations was stronger than its associated wind field. This long-period oscillation is consistent with the wavelet scalogram of the wind field calculated from the off-island weather stations. About 20–33 day oscillations exist within intraseasonal variations, which are closely linked to the atmospheric environment and to wind and ocean wave fields. Oscillations with a period of 5–10 days are a pronounced feature over northeastern Taiwan waters during the winter season and can be interpreted as the wave pattern following synoptic weather systems.  相似文献

根据多年(1958—1990)月平均温、盐度资料，采用模糊聚类分析法划分了舟山渔场及其邻近海域的水团，并对该海域水团的配置、主要特性及其季节变异特征进行了气候学分析。结果表明，舟山渔场及其邻近海域共存在4个水团，即江浙沿岸水、台湾暖流表层水、台湾暖流深层水和黄海混合水；全年水团的配置可归纳为冬季型、夏季型和过渡型3种类型；江浙沿岸水的主要特征为低盐，其分布范围和盐度的季节变化与长江入海径流密切相关，而温度的季节变化则主要受太阳辐射的影响；台湾暖流表层水具有高温、次高盐特征，其北伸程度和温、盐特性均具有明显的季节变化，即冬季北伸强、温度低、盐度高，夏季北伸弱、温度高、盐度低；台湾暖流深层水以低温、高盐为主要特征，仅存在于4—9月，其温、盐性质较稳定；黄海混合水的主体不在研究海域。  相似文献   

基底非均一性对琼东南盆地新生代构造变形差异的影响: 来自物理模拟实验的启示     

杨庚兄  尹宏伟  汪伟  贾东  朱继田  熊小峰 《高校地质学报》2022,28(5):655-668

琼东南盆地位于南海北部大陆边缘西北部,是新生代形成的北东向伸展盆地,其断裂走向、次级凹陷分布方向、构造样式等在东西部表现出明显差异。文章采用构造解析与构造物理模拟相结合的方式,探究先存的中生代构造几何形态及基底性质差异对琼东南盆地东西部构造差异性演化的控制作用。实验结果表明：（1）先存构造薄弱带几何边界分布方向与区域伸展方向共同控制了琼东南盆地主要断裂的走向以及断裂构造样式。由于先存构造薄弱带边界方向存在东西差异,在早期NW向拉伸阶段（Tg-T80）盆地断裂系统在东西部就已表现出明显的分段特征。西部由于垂向拉伸产生一组NEE向断裂;东部由于斜向拉伸,发育至少两组方向的断裂,一组与应力方向垂直（NEE向）,另一组沿着构造薄弱带分布（WE向）。后期断裂活动继承和改造了这一时期的断裂,使断裂系统更加复杂。先存构造薄弱带几何形态变化是导致琼东南盆地东西部构造差异性发育的主控因素。（2）基底强度差异性对上覆构造的断裂数量以及地貌起伏特征有一定影响。琼东南盆地在东西部的断裂走向及构造样式上的差异性受基底强弱、先存构造形态及构造应力方向的共同控制。  相似文献

本文采用乌鲁木齐市国家基准气象站463站的逐日平均、逐日最低和逐日最高气温资料,分析了乌鲁木齐市1976-2017年气温变化趋势和对四季的影响。结果表明：乌市气温有明显上升的趋势,年平均气温的线性增温速率为0.50℃/10a,1997年出现了最暖年,1976年以来最暖的10 a均出现在20世纪末至今;年平均最低气温升温趋势最为明显,倾向率为0.77℃/10a,上升速率约是年平均最高气温的2.5倍;气温上升导致春季和夏季的开始日期提前明显、秋季和冬季开始日期有推后的趋势,使得夏季明显延长,延长率为5.9d/10a,近42a来共增加25d,其他季节则有不同程度的缩短,其中冬季缩短最为明显,缩短率为-3.6d/10a,近42a来共缩短了15d;各季节开始日期不仅与年平均气温相关性很好,且开春期、入夏期分别与3月和6月平均气温显著负相关;入秋期与入冬期分别与9月和11月气温呈显著正相关;夏季和冬季的长度也与年平均气温显著相关,当年平均气温每上升1℃时,夏季将延长6d,而冬季则会缩短7 d。  相似文献
