The spatial distribution of heterotrophic ciliates, environmental factors and potential food items (bacteria, Synechococcus spp. and nanoflagellates) were measured in the East China Sea to examine which variables contributed importantly to the long-term
distribution of ciliates between 1998 and 2007. In July 1998 and June 2003, heterotrophic ciliates were found to be abundant
(1,000–2,000 × 103 cells m−3) in regions where surface salinity <32 but extremely low (<500 × 103 cells m−3) in shelf waters of surface salinity >32. After August 2003, shortly after the completion of the Three Gorges Dam, we found
no significant areal differences in the abundance of heterotrophic ciliates (HC). However, we found a significantly negative
correlation between temperature and HC abundance of surface water after the completion of the dam, suggesting that temperature
had a greater influence on HC abundance, once the original saline state had changed. For the long-term trends on the vertical
distribution of HC, their abundance was significantly higher in the upper 50 m of the water column than at either 75 or 100 m.
Abundance of Synechococcus spp. at these levels varied significantly in regions of surface salinity <32, suggesting that ciliates and picophytoplankton
contribute greatly to mediating the transfer of organic matter to higher trophic levels in this marine ecosystem. 相似文献

Since 1990, digital strong-motion accelerographs and global positioning system (GPS) instruments have been widely deployed
in the Taiwan region (Shin et al. 2003; Yu et al. 2001). The 1999 Chi-Chi, Mw 7.6 earthquake and the 2003 Chengkung, Mw 6.8 earthquake were well recorded by both digital accelerographs
and GPS instruments. These data offer a good opportunity to determine coseismic displacements from strong-motion records and
to compare the results with those derived from GPS measurements. As noted by Boore (2001), a double integration of the acceleration data often leads to unreasonable results, and baseline corrections are therefore
required in most cases before the integration. Based on the works of Iwan et al. (1985) and Boore (2001), we developed an improved method for baseline correction and validated it using an extensive set of data from shake-table
tests of a known “step” displacement on 249 accelerographs. Our baseline correction method recovered about 97% of the actual
displacement from the shake-table data. We then applied this baseline correction method to compute coseismic displacements
from the strong-motion data of the Chi-Chi and Chengkung earthquakes. Our results agree favorably with the coseismic displacements
determined by the GPS measurements at nearby sites. The ratio of seismic to geodetic displacement varies from 0.78 to 1.41,
with an average of about 1.05. 相似文献

This study used the dilution method to examine growth and grazing rates of heterotrophic bacteria and an autotrophic picoplankton,
Synechococcus spp., from 1 to 11 July 2007 in the East China Sea. The main influence of oceanographic conditions in this aquatic system
was the introduction of fresh, high-nutrient water from Changjiang River and the extremely nutrient-poor, high-salinity waters
of Kuroshio Water. In these experiments, deviation from linearity in the relationship between dilution factor and net growth
rate was significant in a large number of cases. Growth rates for heterotrophic bacteria ranged from 0.024 to 0.24, and for
Synechococcus spp. from 0.03 to 0.21 h−1. Grazing rates ranged from 0.02 to 0.19 and 0.01 to 0.13 h−1, respectively. The spatial variations of Synechococcus spp. production to the primary production ratio (SP/PP) were low (<5%) in high Chl a environments and increased exponentially in low Chl a environments, indicating that Synechococcus spp. contributes to a large extent to the photosynthetic biomass in the open sea, especially in the more oligotrophic Kuroshio
Water. Furthermore, the results of our dilution experiments suggest that nanoflagellates largely depend on heterotrophic bacteria
as an important energy source. On average, heterotrophic bacteria contributes to 76 and 59% of carbon consumed by nanoflagellates
within the plume (salinity <31) and outside of it (salinity >31). 相似文献

This two-year study investigates the possible factors that determine spatial and temporal dynamics of picoplankton (heterotrophic
bacteria, autotrophic picoplankton—Synechococcus spp., Prochlorococcus, and picoeukaryotes) and nanoflagellate abundance in the subtropical Ilan Bay, Taiwan, where the inner bay is affected by
freshwater run-off from the Lanyang River and the eastern outer bay by the Kuroshio Current. In the inner bay, there was more
rain and freshwater discharge in 2005 than in 2004 during the warm season (>24° C, June–September). The abundance of bacteria,
Synechococcus spp., Prochlorococcus, and picoeukaryotes and the percentage contributions of pigmented nanoflagellate (PNF %) were two- to eight-fold greater
during this period (July in 2005) than for other sampling periods. Relatively low abundance of heterotrophic nanoflagellates
(HNF) in the presence of abundant picoplankton prey suggests that top-down control determined HNF abundance in the Ilan Bay,
Taiwan. 相似文献

The use of characteristic period τc and peak displacement amplitude Pd of the initial P wave in earthquake early warning (EEW) was proposed by Wu and Kanamori 1, 2, 3 and 4. Here we apply this approach to strong-motion records from a building sensor array installed in Taitung County, Taiwan. This building was damaged during the 2006 Mw=6.1 Taitung earthquake with a peak ground velocity (PGV) of up to 38.4 cm/s at an epicentral distance of 14.5 km. According to our analysis, the peak displacement amplitude Pd is a better indicator for the destructiveness of an earthquake than τc because τc is more sensitive to the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) than Pd. In accordance with previous studies, only the structurally damaging Taitung earthquake generated a Pd value larger than 0.5 cm (a threshold for identifying damaging events). Using Pd as an indicator for destructive earthquakes does not lead to missing or false alarms for EEW purposes. 相似文献
