Remote sensing observations of biological material by LANDSAT along a tidal thermal front and their relevancy to the available field data     

Jacques Le Fèvre  Michel Viollier  Pierre Le Corre  Cécile Dupouy  Jean-René Grall 《Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science》1983,16(1):37-50

Two images recorded on two successive summer days by LANDSAT satellite over the western approaches to the English Channel show bright pattern of complex shape the origin of which is puzzling. Among the wavelength bands available on LANDSAT's multispectral scanner, these patterns are apparent only in the green region of the spectrum, and they are located towards the stratified side of a well marked tidal thermal front. Spectral signature analysis and available knowledge on hydrography and plankton in the area are used to derive a proposed interpretation. Phytoplankton would accordingly be the best candidate for being responsible for the observed patterns.  相似文献

中国东部海域泥质沉积区现代沉积速率及其物源控制效应初探   总被引：13，自引：0，他引：13

中国东部陆架(渤、黄、东海)是欧亚大陆和太平洋之间的一个重要物质交换通道,其周边的河流每年向海输入了大量的细颗粒沉积物。这些物质在海洋动力(潮流、波浪、环流等)的作用下形成了多个泥质沉积区(带)。过去的数十年间,国内外学者对东部陆架海沉积物扩散和沉积动力机制进行了深入的研究,但是,目前对陆架泥质沉积的形成机制以及沉积物收支情况还存在争议。本文利用整理的现代沉积速率资料,从物源控制的角度出发,研究了各泥质沉积区10～100a尺度的沉积速率和沉积通量的分布规律,并与全新世泥质沉积记录进行对比,指出物源是控制这些泥质沉积形成的主要因素。河流携带入海物质是这些泥质沉积的主要"源",而这些泥质区是典型的"汇"。小型河流河口沉积过程和物质贡献需引起重视。定量化物源分析需结合物源供应等方面的资料,在遵守沉积物收支平衡的前提下进行。  相似文献   

Impact of sea surface temperature front on stratus-sea fog over the Yellow and East China Seas — a case study with implications for climatology     

LI Man  ZHANG Suping 《中国海洋大学学报(英文版)》2013,12(2):301-311

A stratus-sea fog event that occurred over the Yellow and East China Seas on 3 June 2011 is investigated using observa-tions and a numerical model, with a focus on the effects of background circulation and Sea Surface Temperature Front (SSTF) on the transition of stratus into sea fog. Southerly winds of a synoptic high-pressure circulation transport water vapor to the Yellow Sea, creating conditions favorable for sea fog/stratus formation. The subsidence from the high-pressure contributes to the temperature inversion at the top of the stratus. The SSTF forces a secondary circulation within the ABL (Atmospheric Boundary Layer), the sink-ing branch of which on the cold flank of SSTF helps lower the stratus layer further to reach the sea surface. The cooling effect over the cold sea surface counteracts the adiabatic warming induced by subsidence. The secondary circulation becomes weak and the fog patches are shrunk heavily with the smoothed SSTF. A conceptual model is proposed for the transition of stratus into sea fog over the Yellow and East China Seas. Finally, the analyses suggest that sea fog frequency will probably decrease due to the weakened SSTF and the reduced subsidence of secondary circulation under global warming.  相似文献   

印度尼西亚海潮致混合研究现状与展望          下载免费PDF全文

印度尼西亚海(简称印尼海)位于热带太平洋和印度洋交汇的海域,是全球最大的内潮生成海域。内潮耗散导致强烈的潮致混合,一方面将温跃层以下的海水卷入上层,降低印尼海海表温度,之后通过海气相互作用产生显著的天气和气候效应;另一方面对穿越印尼海的印度尼西亚贯穿流的物质与能量输运也有着重要影响。自Arlindo计划以来,人们对印尼海潮致混合的认识不断深化,并通过在海洋环流数值模式中考虑印尼海强潮致混合过程,提升了对印尼海和全球大洋环流的模拟效果。但由于缺乏现场观测资料和针对性的潮致混合参数化方案,印尼海潮致混合特征的定量描述及其在海洋环流与气候模式中的表达尚未完全解决。本研究对印尼海潮致混合及其在海洋环流和气候数值模式中的应用的最新研究成果进行了概述和展望,并对未来该海域混合观测方案和潮致混合参数化方案提出了针对性建议。  相似文献   

Internal waves,baroclinic energy fluxes and mixing at the European shelf edge     

J.A. Mattias Green  John H. Simpson  Sonya Legg  Matthew R. Palmer 《Continental Shelf Research》2008

The energy flux in internal waves generated at the Celtic Sea shelf break was estimated by (i) applying perturbation theory to a week-long dataset from a mooring at 200 m depth, and (ii) using a 2D non-hydrostatic circulation model over the shelf break. The dataset consisted of high resolution time-series of currents and vertical stratification together with two 25-h sets of vertical profiles of the dissipation of turbulent kinetic energy. The observations indicated an average energy flux of 139 W m⁻¹, travelling along the shelf break towards the northwest. The average energy flux across the shelf break at the mooring was only 8 W m⁻¹. However, the waves propagating onshelf transported up to 200 W m⁻¹, but they were only present 51% of the time. A comparison between the divergence of the baroclinic energy flux and observed dissipation within the seasonal thermocline at the mooring showed that the dissipation was at least one order of magnitude larger. Results from a 2D model along a transect perpendicular to the shelf break showed a time-averaged onshelf energy flux of 153–425 W m⁻¹, depending on the magnitude of the barotropic forcing. A divergence zone of the energy flux was found a few kilometre offshore of the location of the observations in the model results, and fluxes on the order of several kW m⁻¹ were present in the deep waters further offshelf from the divergence zone. The modelled fluxes exhibited qualitative agreements with the phase and hourly onshelf magnitudes of the observed energy fluxes. Both the observations and the model results show an intermittent onshelf energy flux of 100–200 W m⁻¹, but these waves could only propagate ∼20–30 km onshore before dissipating. This conclusion was supported by a 25-h dataset sampled some 180 km onto the shelf, where a weak wave energy flux was found going towards the shelf break. We therefore conclude that shelf break generated internal waves are unlikely to be the main source of energy for mixing on the inner part of the shelf.  相似文献   

Eustatic and hydrodynamic controls on the architecture of a deep shelf sand bank (Celtic Sea)   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

Jean-Yves Reynaud  Bernadette Tessier  Jean-Noël Proust  Robert Dalrymple  Tania Marsset  Marc De Batist  Jean-François Bourillet  & Gilles Lericolais 《Sedimentology》1999,46(4):703-721

The architecture of a tidal sand bank in the south-eastern Celtic Sea was examined using very high-resolution seismic surveys. The bank comprises four depositional units. The lowest unit 1 is characterized by gently dipping (1–8°) strata that strike parallel to the length of the bank. Unit 1 is erosionally overlain by unit 2, which forms the bulk of the bank. This unit consists of stacked sets of downcurrent-dipping (7–12°) master bedding formed by climbing, sinuous-crested tidal dunes that are up to 20 m high. These deposits are locally incised by an anastomosed channel network (unit 3) that may represent a buried swatchway system. The upper part of the bank comprises wave-related deposits that are mainly preserved on the bank flanks (unit 4). The outer bank surface is erosional. The bank is believed to have formed during the last post-glacial sea-level rise. The facies evolution from unit 1 to unit 3 indicates an upward increase in tidal energy, mainly characterized by the thickening of dune cross-bed sets in unit 2. The majority of bank growth is inferred to have occurred in water depths of the order of 60 m. This evolution was controlled by relative sea-level rise, which is likely to have caused an episode of tidal resonance with associated strong tidal currents that were responsible for the incision of the deep, cross-cutting channels of unit 3. The transition to wave-dominated sedimentation in unit 4 is related to the decay of resonance with continued sea-level rise.  相似文献
