| 摘 要： | 混合是海洋中普遍存在的一种海水运动形式,对多个海洋学分支的研究具有重要的影响.随着物理海洋学的研究重心从大尺度向中小尺度现象过渡,近年来混合问题的研究重心也逐渐转向了中小尺度现象.内波与中尺度涡都是非常重要的中小尺度物理海洋学现象,对海洋能量在不同尺度中的级联发挥着重要的作用.本文基于地震海洋学研究了海洋混合参数的提取方法,并以南海内波和地中海涡旋为例进行了计算和分析.结果显示,南海内波在200~600m深度范围内所引起的混合可达10-2.79 m2·s-1左右,比大洋的统计结果10-5 m2·s-1高出两个数量级以上.而地中海涡旋所引起的湍流混合率可达10-3.44 m2·s-1左右,与大洋统计结果相比高出1.5个数量级左右,并且地中海涡旋下边界的混合要强于上边界,这一特征与前人的研究一致,另外涡旋上边界之上以及侧边界的外侧也具有非常高的混合率.

| Abstract: | Mixing is a most common movement in the ocean, which affects the studies of many oceanographic disciplines. With the development of ocean science and technology, the focus of mixing problem study has been changing from larger scales to meso and small scales. The internal waves and meso-scale eddy are very important phenomena of such scales in physical oceanography. They both play great roles in the energy cascade for the movement of different scales in the ocean. Based on seismic oceanography, the method to extract the mixing parameters is established. Using this method, two cases are computed and analyzed : the internal wave in South China Sea and the Mediterranean eddy.Spectral analysis is a prerequisite for the estimation of mixing parameters. Subtracting the mean depth of a horizon from a seismic section, we can get the vertical displacement of water column. Then we use the Welch method to compute the horizontal spectrum of the displacement curve. Afterwards we decompose the spectrum by EEMD (ensemble empirical mode decomposition) and extract the trend component as the fitting result. Based on this fitting result and previous theory of ocean mixing, the mixing parameters can be estimated.In the depth range of 200~600 m, the mixing rate induced by the internal waves in South China Sea can reach 10-2.79 m2·s-1, which is two orders of magnitude larger than the statistical value (10-5 m2·s-1) of the open ocean. The mixing rate induced by Mediterranean eddy is around 10-3.44 m2·s-1, which is about 1.5 orders of magnitude larger than the statistical value of the open ocean. The mixing rate of the lower boundary of the eddy is larger than the upper boundary, which agrees with the previous study. The outside part, which is close to the upper and lateral boundary, also has a high mixing rate. The mixing rate of the entire ocean should reach 10-4 m2·s-1 in order to drive the large scale ocean circulation. However, the measurement of the open ocean shows that this value is just around 10-5 m2·s-1, so there is a "mixing budget". Then many ocean scientists started to find the answer from marginal seas, especially the meso- and small-scale oceanic phenomena in these places. This paper builds a method to quickly estimate the mixing rates of seawater by seismic oceanography. The two cases presented in this paper show that the internal waves and meso scale eddy in marginal seas both can generate very high mixing rates compared with the value of the open ocean. The results indicate that finding the answer for "mixing budget" from marginal seas, from meso- and small-scale oceanic phenomena, is probably an effective way. |
