Statistics of wave forces on large horizontal cylinders     

Felice Arena   《Ocean Engineering》2002,29(4):359-372

To the first order in a Stokes expansion, the pressure force exerted by a sea state on a large horizontal cylinder represents a stationary random Gaussian process. A relationship is obtained between the spectrum of this process and the wave spectrum. As a consequence, the basic statistical properties of the height and period of the individual waves of the force-process are also obtained. It is proven that these statistical properties agree very well with the data from a small scale field experiment.  相似文献

Vertical distribution of the macrobenthic community and its relationships to trace metals and natural sediment characteristics in the lower Douro estuary, Portugal   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

Vertical distribution (0–15 cm) of the macrobenthic community and its relationships to natural sediment characteristics and trace metal contents and bioavailability were studied at five locations in the lower Douro estuary, Portugal. An analysis of vertical metal distribution, for the interpretation of anthropogenic impact on the estuarine sediments, was also investigated. Sediment characterisation included organic matter, grain size, metals (Al, Fe, Cu, Pb, Cr, Ni, Cd, Zn and Mn), acid volatile sulphide (AVS) and simultaneously extracted metals (SEM). The macrobenthic community had low diversity (14 species), was dominated by small size opportunists and seemed to be controlled mainly by natural factors such as grain size distribution, Al and Fe contents and sediment depth. The vertically heterogeneous distribution of macrobenthic community appears to affect redox status of the sediments and consequently metal bioavailability. Despite anthropogenic contamination in terms of Zn, Cu, Pb, Cr and Ni having already been detected in the north bank, the analysis of vertical distribution was essential for the identification of current anthropogenic contamination in terms of Zn, Pb and Cd in the south bank.  相似文献   

台湾海峡微微型浮游植物的生态研究——Ⅰ.时空分布及其调控机制   总被引：10，自引：3，他引：10       下载免费PDF全文

黄邦钦  洪华生  林学举  陈纪新 《海洋学报》2003,25(4):72-82

1997年8月、1998年2～3月和1998年8月,调查分析了台湾海峡微微型浮游植物的时空分布(平面、垂直、总日和季节)及其调控机制。结果表明,微微型浮游植物丰度的平面分布不均匀,各类群具有不同的密集区,并存在明显的地理差异,垂直分布存在6种模式,以标准单峰和弱单峰为主,分布类型的多样化是由于微微型浮游植物固有的垂直分布模式和研究海域复杂的地形及水动力(如跃层等)条件相互作用的结果,微微型浮游植物的丰度存在明显的随时间变化现象;在季节变化方面,各类群存在较为明显的差异,温度是影响台湾海峡微微型浮游植物平面分布的重要因子,而光辐照度、温盐跃层是影响垂直分布的重要因子,微微型浮游植物不同类群在时空分布上存在“位移”现象,此与不同类群对温度敏感性不同、对光的利用能力不同以及生存空间的互补性等因素有关。  相似文献

黄海溶解氧垂直分布最大值的成因   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

王保栋 《海洋科学进展》1997,(3)

本文对黄海溶解氧垂直分布中最大值的成因进行了探讨．认为：浮游植物春花期光合作用产生的大量氧，是溶解氧垂直分布最大值得以在春季（5月）形成的基础；而良好的温、密跃层的存在是氧最大值得以形成的必要条件，夏季叶绿素最大值层中较强的光合作用，是氧最大值在夏季得以维持甚至增强的主要原因．提出：黄海春、夏季溶解氧垂直分布中的最大值并非主要由冬季保持而来．  相似文献

A Functional Analysis of the Benthic Macrofauna of the São Sebastião Channel (Southeastern Brazil)     

Emilia Arasaki  Pablo Muniz  & Ana Maria S. Pires-Vanin 《Marine Ecology》2004,25(4):249-263

Abstract.  The major problem in coastal areas of developing countries is disturbance caused by anthropogenic influence. This disturbance can be quantified by analysing the distribution and composition of marine communities using uni- and multivariate techniques and the biotic index. A study of benthic macrofauna was carried out along the São Sebastião Channel, northern coast of São Paulo State, Brazil, in an area with a submarine outfall, a petroleum terminal and a commercial harbour. Sampling was undertaken seasonally, by means of a van Veen grab (0.1 m²) at 15 oceanographic stations, from November 1993 to August 1994. A total of 392 species were identified (129 Polychaeta, 127 Mollusca, 98 Crustacea, 28 Echinodermata and 10 other phyla). The sedimentary pattern recorded for the São Sebastião Channel is very heterogeneous, influenced mainly by strong wind-driven currents, and differs from nearby shelf areas. The study area could be divided into three regions based on sediment texture and fauna: one region dominated by medium and coarse sand with low values of organic carbon; a second area where pelitic fractions were dominant with high values of organic carbon and nitrogen; and a third region characterised by fine and very fine sand, presenting intermediate organic carbon values. No temporal significant variation in abundance and species composition was found, except in autumn. The use of the 'marine Biotic Coefficient' showed the same ecological trend as the faunal abundance and demonstrated that the central continental region of the channel is affected by human activities.  相似文献
