利用主成分分析法对冲绳海槽南部MD05-2908孔近1000年来沉积物硅藻数据进行研究发现,MD05-2908孔各样品在主成分一上的得分情况与该于孔淡水硅藻含量、夏季海水表层盐度变化以及台湾近1000年来的降水异常有良好的相关性,因此,各样品在主成分一上的得分可作为台湾东北部台风降雨指标,用来指示台风强降雨事件对南冲绳海槽海洋环境的影响情况.近1000年来台湾东北部台风强降雨事件波动增加,在1500～1800A.D.期间达到峰值;此外,5次典型的强台风降雨记录,分别发生于1040A.D.、1310A.D.、1530A.D.、1690A.D.和1900A.D.,其平均重现周期为215年(160～270年).利用MD05-2908孔各样品在主成分一上的得分重建的台风记录与广东、台湾等地已有的台风记录有较好的对应关系,进一步验证了硅藻作为研究工具重建古台风记录的可行性.  相似文献   

北赤道流分叉点及南海北部环流的研究进展   总被引：6，自引：0，他引：6  

何映晖  蔡树群  王盛安 《海洋学研究》2009,27(3):74-84

介绍了北赤道流分叉点、南海北部环流的一些研究成果,并就黑潮对南海的影响所作的研究进行了回顾.北赤道流分叉点的位置对于北赤道流系水体疏运变化及在黑潮和MC之间水体、热量、盐度输运的分配中起着重要的作用.北赤道流分叉点位置约在14.6°N上,分叉点位置随深度增加而北移.分叉点有明显的季节变化和年际变化,在春、夏季向南移动,而在秋、冬季则向北移动.年际变化与ENSO现象相关紧密,在El Nio事件NEC分叉纬度处于最北端,在La Nio事件处于最南端.对于分叉点位置的定量化研究,仍然需要更多的观测结果进行研究.季风和黑潮是影响南海北部环流的两种主要因素.南海北部上层流场主要由广东沿岸流、黑潮入侵流套、东沙海流、南海暖流和吕宋海流组成.除海盆、次海盆尺度环流外,受季风、黑潮和地形等因素的影响,南海表现出多涡结构.通过近些年的卫星观测和数值模拟的结果,人们对南海中尺度涡的认识大大加深,但要想模拟出风应力形成涡的机制,还需要提高风场和模式的分辨率.由于观测资料的限制,对南海流场的垂直结构、以及春-秋季季风转相时期的流场结构等还研究得较少.吕宋海峡水交换是西太平洋对南海影响的主要途径.黑潮在吕宋海峡附近的形变一直是有争议的热点问题,目前对于黑潮入侵有3种观点:(1) 认为黑潮经过吕宋海峡形成流套结构,并分离出中尺度涡影响南海流场、水团结构;(2) 认为黑潮有一直接分支分离出来进入南海形成黑潮分支;(3) 认为吕宋海峡水交换不属于以上两种情况,西太平洋对南海的水团输送另有机制.北赤道流分叉点在对黑潮的水体、热量、盐度输运的分配中起着重要的作用,黑潮对南海北部环流的影响可能与NEC的分叉点位置有关,但目前对NEC的分叉点位置与南海北部环流相关性的研究甚少.最后提出了对未来加强该方面研究的一些展望.  相似文献   

Climatological distribution of lightning density observed by satellites in China and its circumjacent regions   总被引：14，自引：1，他引：13  

MA Ming  TAO Shanchang  ZHU Baoyou & LU Weitao School of Earth  Space Sciences  University of Science  Technology of China  Hefei  China 《中国科学D辑(英文版)》2005,48(2):219-229

The 0.5°×0.5°grid resolution distribution of lightning density in China and its circumjacent regions have been analyzed by using the satellite-borne OTD (Apr 1995-Mar 2000) and LIS (Dec 1997-Mar 2003) databases. It is shown that: (i) Firstly, the variability of the lightning density (LD) is particularly pronounced over the different subareas, 9 times greater over the south than the north side of Himalayas Mountains, 2.5 times greater over the eastern than the western area of China. While the maximum and minimum LD are respectively 31.4fl/km2/a (in Guangzhou region) and less than 0.2fl/km2/a (in the desert of western China). Secondly, the LD of China's continent regularly varies with latitude and distance off coast, which is consistent with annual mean precipitation in varying trend. In conclusion, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the China's three-step staircase topography and the latitude are three important factors affecting macro-scale characteristics of the LD distribution, (ii) The regional differences  相似文献   

Circulation Around Luzon Strait in September as Inferred from CTD,Argos and Argo Measurements and a Generalized Topography-Following Ocean Model     

《大气与海洋》2012,50(4):40-58

The hydrography, wind, Argos and Argo measurements in the areas surrounding Luzon Strait were collected. Based on the hydrographic data obtained during September 1994, the improved Princeton Ocean Model using a generalized topography-following coordinate system together with a modified inverse method was applied to study the circulation in September. Observations and the diagnostic simulation produce a consistent circulation pattern, and the main dynamical features can be summarized as follows. (1) The Kuroshio has two branches with the main Kuroshio existing above 800 m depth and the western part existing above 400 m depth. The western branch of the Kuroshio leaves the main current near 20.5°N, then flows northwestward through Luzon Strait and finally flows out of the northern boundary southwest of Taiwan, consistent with the trajectory of Argos drifters. (2) The non-linear term is important and cannot be neglected in the momentum equations in the northern part of Luzon Strait under the baroclinicity field. Using non-linear dynamics, the westward intrusion of the Kuroshio into the northern part of Luzon Strait is more curved than when using linear dynamics. However, the non-linear term is smaller and so negligible around Luzon Strait under the homogeneous density field. (3) In the area from 117°E to 119°E and from 20.2°N to 21.7°N, an anticyclonic eddy appears east of Dongsha Islands. (4) At depths above 400 m, the circulation is mainly dominated by the basin-scale cyclonic gyre. (5) In the computational domain west of 121°E, the circulation below 800 m is mainly dominated by the basin-scale anticyclonic gyre. (6) The South China Sea water flows eastward across Luzon Strait in the middle layers, then turns cyclonically, finally flowing northward into the region east of Taiwan Island, which is qualitatively in agreement with the trajectories of Argo floats at about 1000 m depth in the area east of 121°E.

RÉSUMÉ?[Traduit par la rédaction] Nous avons rassemblé l'hydrographie, le vent, les Argo et les mesures Argo dans les régions avoisinant le détroit de Luçon. Sur la base des données hydrographiques relevées durant le mois de septembre 1994, nous avons appliqué le modèle océanique amélioré de Princeton utilisant un système de coordonnées « suivant le terrain » généralisé de pair avec une méthode inverse modifiée pour étudier la circulation en septembre. Les observations et la simulation diagnostique produisent une configuration de circulation cohérente dont on peut résumer comme suit les principales caractéristiques dynamiques. (1) Le Kuroshio possède deux branches : le Kuroshio principal existant au-dessus d'une profondeur de 800 m et la partie ouest existant au-dessus d'une profondeur de 400 m. La branche ouest du Kuroshio quitte le courant principal aux environs de 20,5°N et se dirige vers le nord-ouest à travers le détroit de Luçon pour finalement franchir la limite nord du détroit au sud-ouest de Taïwan, ce qui correspond à la trajectoire des bouées dérivantes Argos. (2) Le terme non linéaire dans les équations est important et ne peut pas être considéré négligeable de quantité de mouvement dans la partie nord du détroit de Luçon dans le champ de baroclinité. Lorsqu'on utilise la dynamique non linéaire, l'intrusion vers l'ouest du Kuroshio dans la partie nord du détroit de Luçon est plus incurvée que lorsqu'on utilise la dynamique linéaire. Cependant, le terme non linéaire est plus petit et donc négligeable autour du détroit de Luçon dans le champ de densité homogène. (3) Dans la région allant de 117°E à 119°E et de 20,2°N à 21,7°N, un remous anticyclonique apparaît à l'est des îles Dongsha. (4) Aux profondeurs inférieures à 400 m, la circulation est principalement dominée par le gyre cyclonique à l’échelle du bassin. (5) Dans le domaine de calcul à l'ouest de 121°E, la circulation sous 800 m est principalement dominée par le gyre anticyclonique à l’échelle du bassin. (6) Les eaux de la mer de Chine méridionale s’écoulent vers l'est à travers le détroit de Luçon dans les couches intermédiaires, puis tournent de façon cyclonique pour finalement s’écouler vers le nord dans la région à l'est de l’île Taïwan, ce qui, qualitativement, s'accorde avec la trajectoire des flotteurs Argo à environ 1000 m de profondeur dans la région à l'est de 121°E.  相似文献   

Air–sea interaction over ocean fronts and eddies   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

R.J. Small  S.P. deSzoeke  S.P. Xie  L. O&#x;Neill  H. Seo  Q. Song  P. Cornillon  M. Spall  S. Minobe 《Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans》2008,45(3-4):274

Air–sea interaction at ocean fronts and eddies exhibits positive correlation between sea surface temperature (SST), wind speed, and heat fluxes out of the ocean, indicating that the ocean is forcing the atmosphere. This contrasts with larger scale climate modes where the negative correlations suggest that the atmosphere is driving the system. This paper examines the physical processes that lie behind the interaction of sharp SST gradients and the overlying marine atmospheric boundary layer and deeper atmosphere, using high resolution satellite data, field data and numerical models. The importance of different physical mechanisms of atmospheric response to SST gradients, such as the effect of surface stability variations on momentum transfer, pressure gradients, secondary circulations and cloud cover will be assessed. The atmospheric response is known to create small-scale wind stress curl and divergence anomalies, and a discussion of the feedback of these features onto the ocean will also be presented. These processes will be compared and contrasted for different regions such as the Equatorial Front in the Eastern Pacific, and oceanic fronts in mid-latitudes such as the Gulf Stream, Kuroshio, and Agulhas Return Current.  相似文献   

东海黑潮暖舌的演变及其对我国气温的影响   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0  

殷明  肖子牛  黎鑫  李崇银 《气候与环境研究》2016,21(3):333-345

利用高分辨率的海温分析资料模式资料,分析了黑潮暖舌与我国气温的关系,初步探讨了太平洋年代际振荡(PDO)等造成黑潮暖舌变化的可能原因。结果表明,冬季和春季东海黑潮暖舌存在明显的年际和年代际变化。暖舌在1996/1997年发生了一次突变,此前暖舌处在偏冷的状态,之后转为偏暖的状态。我国冬季和春季气温存在一定的年代际变化,1997年之后,冬季除东北和新疆外,气温有所偏高,而春季气温全国表现为一致的显著偏高。冬季和春季气温对黑潮暖舌存在邻(域)响应。冬季东海黑潮暖舌指数与冬季我国东部气温存在正相关,并且这一相关性能够延续到次年春季。冬季黑潮暖舌指数与我国4月海陆热力差异指数也存在显著的正相关。当冬季暖舌偏强(弱)时,4月海陆热力差异指数偏高(低),即东亚地区海陆热力差异偏大(小)。春季黑潮暖舌指数与春季我国中部及南方地区气温也存在正相关,当春季黑潮暖舌偏强(弱)时,上述地区气温将偏高(低)。PDO和黑潮暖舌之间的相互作用存在一个反馈机制。西风的增强,可通过使海洋向大气释放热量增加和向南的埃克曼(Ekman)输送,降低北太平洋中部的SST,而这一地区SST的降低对应着PDO的暖位相。增强的负风应力旋度在北太平洋副热带流涡中强迫出的向南斯维尔德鲁普(Sverdrup)流也偏强,而向北流动的东海黑潮的增强正是补偿了这一向南的海流。黑潮增强后经过两个月将大量热量输送至北太平洋中部,增强了这一地区的SST,而这对应着PDO的冷位相。  相似文献   

The Ordovician Sierras Pampeanas–Puna basin connection: Basement thinning and basin formation in the Proto-Andean back-arc     

Steffen H. Büttner   《Tectonophysics》2009,477(3-4):278

The Ordovician Sierras Pampeanas, located in a continental back-arc position at the Proto-Andean margin of southwest Gondwana, experienced substantial mantle heat transfer during the Ordovician Famatina orogeny, converting Neoproterozoic and Early Cambrian metasediments to migmatites and granites. The high-grade metamorphic basement underwent intense extensional shearing during the Early and Middle Ordovician. Contemporaneously, up to 7000 m marine sediments were deposited in extensional back-arc basins covering the pre-Ordovician basement. Extensional Ordovician tectonics were more effective in mid- and lower crustal migmatites than in higher levels of the crust. At a depth of about 13 km the separating boundary between low-strain solid upper and high-strain lower migmatitic crust evolved to an intra-crustal detachment. The detachment zone varies in thickness but does not exceed about 500 m. The formation of anatectic melt at the metamorphic peak, and the resulting drop in shear strength, initiated extensional tectonics which continued along localized ductile shear zones until the migmatitic crust cooled to amphibolite facies P–T conditions. P–T–d–t data in combination with field evidence suggest significant (ca. 52%) crustal thinning below the detachment corresponding to a thinning factor of 2.1. Ductile thinning of the upper crust is estimated to be less than that of the lower crust and might range between 25% and 44%, constituting total crustal thinning factors of 1.7–2.0. While the migmatites experienced retrograde decompression during the Ordovician, rocks along and above the detachment show isobaric cooling. This suggests that the magnitude of upper crustal extension controls the amount of space created for sediments deposited at the surface. Upper crustal extension and thinning is compensated by newly deposited sediments, maintaining constant pressure at detachment level. Thinning of the migmatitic lower crust is compensated by elevation of the crust–mantle boundary. The degree of mechanical coupling between migmatitic lower and solid upper crust across the detachment zone is the main factor controlling upper crustal extension, basin formation, and sediment thickness in the back-arc basin. The initiation of crustal extension in the back-arc, however, crucially depends on the presence of anatectic melt in the middle and lower crust. Consumption of melt and cooling of the lower crust correlate with decreasing deposition rates in the sedimentary basins and decreasing rates of crustal extension.  相似文献   

Origin of fault domains and fault-domain boundaries (transfer zones and accommodation zones) in extensional provinces: Result of random nucleation and self-organized fault growth     

Roy W. Schlische  Martha Oliver Withjack   《Journal of Structural Geology》2009,31(9):910

In many extensional provinces, large normal faults dip in the same direction forming fault domains. Features variously named transfer faults, transfer zones, and accommodation zones (hereafter non-genetically referred to as fault-domain boundaries) separate adjacent fault domains. Experimental modeling of distributed extension provides insights on the origin, geometry, and evolution of these fault domains and fault-domain boundaries. In our scaled models, a homogeneous layer of wet clay or dry sand overlies a latex sheet that is stretched orthogonally or obliquely between two rigid sheets. Fault domains and fault-domain boundaries develop in all models in both map view and cross-section. The number, size, and arrangement of fault domains as well as the number and orientation of fault-domain boundaries are variable, even for models with identical boundary conditions. The fault-domain boundaries in our models differ profoundly from those in many published conceptual models of transfer/accommodation zones. In our models, fault-domain boundaries are broad zones of deformation (not discrete strike-slip or oblique-slip faults), their orientations are not systematically related to the extension direction, and they can form spontaneously without any prescribed pre-existing zones of weakness. We propose that fault domains develop because early-formed faults perturb the stress field, causing new nearby faults to dip in the same direction (self-organized growth). As extension continues, faults from adjacent fault domains propagate toward each another. Because opposite-dipping faults interfere with one another in the zone of overlap, the faults stop propagating. In this case, the geometry of the domain boundaries depends on the spatial arrangement of the earliest formed faults, a result of the random distribution of the largest flaws at which the faults nucleate.  相似文献   

黑潮延伸体海域典型涡旋的次中尺度特征分析*     

张旭  经志友  郑瑞玺  黄小龙  曹海锦 《热带海洋学报》2021,40(6):31-40

本文基于卫星遥感资料和高分辨率ROMS(Regional Ocean Modeling System)数值模拟结果, 对黑潮延伸体海域典型中尺度涡旋的次中尺度特征进行了探讨。卫星观测和模拟结果显示, 黑潮延伸体涡旋海域伴随着活跃的次中尺度现象。涡旋演变与多尺度能量分析结果表明, 涡旋海域次中尺度动能的强弱与涡旋海域地转流动能有着密切联系, 锋生可能是涡旋边缘次中尺度动能增强的重要机制。次中尺度现象在中尺度涡旋海域具有沿地转流方向的复杂涡丝状结构特征, 意味着涡旋边缘较强的水平浮力梯度和地转流侧向剪切为次中尺度过程形成与发展提供了有利条件。此外, 垂向结构分析表明, 次中尺度过程能引起较大的垂向速度, 最大可达100m·day^-1, 该垂向速度可以影响至混合层下200m深度处, 对海洋内部的垂向物质能量交换、海—气相互作用等有着重要的影响。  相似文献   

东海北部小型底栖动物群落对径流及黑潮暖流入侵的响应   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0  

刘清河  马林  李新正 《海洋学报》2020,42(2):52-64

为探究小型底栖动物群落在东海北部及其临近海域的分布规律，及其对环境因子的响应，于2016年9月和12月，对研究海域共计20个站位的小型底栖动物和环境因子进行了取样调查。调查结果显示，研究海域内共鉴定出小型底栖动物类群16个，其中海洋线虫为绝对优势类群，其他优势类群主要包括桡足类、动吻类和多毛类。9月航次小型底栖动物平均丰度为(1 758±759)个/（10 cm2），线虫占95.6%；平均生物量为(1 216.4±464.7) μg/(10 cm2)(干重)，线虫占55.26%。12月航次平均丰度为(2 011±1 471)个/(10 cm2)，线虫占95.6%；平均生物量为(1 143.0±755.0)μg/(10 cm2)(干重)，线虫占67.28%。聚类分析结果显示，小型底栖动物群落主要可以划分为近岸和外海两个组，其中近岸组小型底栖动物丰度显著高于外海站位。但在各断面分布上，绝大多数站位小型底栖动物丰度最高值均出现在60 m等深线附近，并且该水深处站位的温度和盐度数值均表现出黑潮水的特征。黑潮近岸分支对东海陆架入侵是导致小型底栖动物分布差异的重要原因，小型底栖动物在60 m等深线附近具有的高丰度值可作为其对黑潮入侵的响应。推测，黑潮入侵所导致的水体初级生产力增加以及黑潮水所携带的溶氧可能是导致该深度处小型底栖动物丰度增加的主要原因。  相似文献
