厦门海域水体无机氮和活性磷酸盐含量的变化趋势

根据2003～2008年每年丰水期、枯水期和平水期于厦门海域开展的海洋环境调查的资料,研究了该海域水体无机氮和活性磷酸盐含量区域分布和时间变化趋势.结果表明,调查期间该海域水体无机氮和活性磷酸盐平均含量都较高,分别为0.50、0.031 mg/dm^3.其营养盐含量的区域分布相差较大,其中九龙江口水体无机氮含量最高,年均含量为0.52～1.37 mg/dm^3;厦门西港水体活性磷酸盐含量最高,年均含量为0.039～0.061 mg/dm^3;而大嶝海域水体无机氮和活性磷酸盐含量最低,年均含量分别为0.06～0.22、0.007～0.016 mg/dm^3.调查期间全海域水体无机氮含量呈逐年增加趋势,活性磷酸盐含量在2003～2005年间呈上升趋势,而2005～2008年则有小幅度的下降.厦门海域水体N/P原子比较高,调查期间全海域年均值为27.4～47.5,且呈逐年增加趋势.无机氮含量的明显增加趋势及越来越严重的N/P比失衡,势必对该海域海洋生态系统尤其是浮游植物群落演替产生不良影响.此外,研究还发现厦门海域水体无机氮含量与盐度呈高度负相关（r=-0.96,n=30）.这有力地证明了九龙江径流输入是厦门海域无机氮的最主要来源.     

大亚湾海域营养盐与叶绿素含量的变化趋势及其对生态环境的影响

分析了近20a来大亚湾海域营养盐和叶绿素a含量的时空变化规律及其对生态环境的影响.结果表明:大亚湾海域水体中NH3N、NO3N、NO2N、PO4P、SiO3Si、DIN、叶绿素a的多年平均含量分别为1.73±0.89、1.55±0.86、0.30±0.25、3.57±1.55、0.33±0.35、22.03±9.40μmol/dm3和2.47±1.28μg/dm3.自1991年以来,水体中活性磷酸盐的含量有较大幅度的下降,溶解态的无机氮的含量则上升,活性硅酸盐的含量变化较小.大亚湾大部分水体属于贫营养水平,养殖海区水体属于中营养水平.大亚湾海域水体的N/P平均值为21.69±19.38.浮游植物的生长从过去的氮限制转变为现在的磷限制.大亚湾海域营养盐含量和结构的改变,已对该海湾生态系统产生了一定的影响,如浮游植物的小型化和渔获量的大幅下降等.     

厦门海域营养盐含量和比率变化及其对浮游植物群落的影响

于2010年8月和10月对厦门海域营养盐和浮游植物等开展了两个航次的调查,目的在于研究该海域营养盐含量和比率变化及其对水采浮游植物群落的影响.各化学和生物要素的采集、保存和分析按照《海洋调查规范》或《海洋监测规范》的相关方法进行.研究结果表明,厦门海域浮游植物生长的营养盐限制性因子与1998年的研究结果比较,依然为PO4-P,而SiO3-Si含量和DIN含量相对充足.各项营养盐含量与盐度都有较明显的负相关性,其中保守性最明显的是DIN,而PO4-P与盐度的相关性相对最低.此外,8月份鉴定到的甲藻门种类和生物量明显高于10月份.本文认为,目前厦门海域营养盐比率变化的主要压力为N/P摩尔比率失衡.随着人为输入氮源的增加,在富氮的九龙江口及其邻近海域,极易发生中肋骨条藻赤潮,该藻的生物量与NO3-N和SiO3-Si含量的相关性十分明显.研究发现,厦门甲藻/硅藻生物量的比值与NO3-N和N/P摩尔比率有一定的正相关性,可能预示着该海域无机氮含量的增加及其引起的N/P摩尔比率增大会促进甲藻门种类的生长.并且浮游植物Shannon生物多样性指数可作为反映厦门海域富营养化较好的生物指标.     

台湾海峡上升流区氮、磷、硅的化学特性及输送通量估算

台湾海峡中北部海域1983～1984年、1987～1988年多次调查资料表明,夏季氮、磷、硅诸营养盐呈近岸、底层高,向上层、外海递减的分布特征,其控制因素是福建近岸上升流。该上升流区NO₃--N、PO₄3--P、SiO₃2--Si的特征值分别为2.29、0.20、2.83μmol/dm3.诸营养盐含量与温度、盐度溶解氧含量及其饱和度有明显的相关性。N/P比平均值接近于Redfield比值。PO₄3--P、NO₃--N、SiO₃2--Si垂直输送通量分别估算为23.6、223、302mg/(m2·d),是该海域夏季营养盐的主要来源,PO₄3--P和NO₃--N的输送通量平均分别大约为真光层生物生产力所需营养盐的86%和73%.     

2012年春秋季罗源湾表层海水水质状况及富营养化评价

根据2012年5、10月春秋两季福建省罗源湾海水化学调查数据,对罗源湾内的4个海洋环境分级控制区的水质状况及水质控制目标实现情况进行了分析,并对该湾的营养盐含量的平面分布、季节变化、N/P比值结构进行了分析,对罗源湾水体富营养化程度进行了评价.调查结果显示,罗源湾主要污染物质为无机氮和活性磷酸盐,春秋季无机氮平均含量分别为0.363 mg/dm3和0.428mg/dm3,活性磷酸盐平均含量分别为0.039 mg/dm3和0.062 mg/dm3,含量均显著高于该湾功能区划要求.两个季节罗源湾海水水质平面分布趋势基本一致,湾口水质相对较好,向湾内水质呈逐渐恶化的趋势.罗源湾内的4个海洋环境分级控制区中,渔业环境保护利用区两个航次均未达到水质控制目标;生态廊道保护利用区5月份部分达标,而在10月份则全部未达标;北岸、南岸港口与工业开发监督区也是部分达标.虽然水质状况春季优于秋季,发生赤潮的可能性,春季却大于秋季.自20世纪80年代以来,罗源湾的水环境质量呈逐渐恶化的趋势,尤其是自21世纪以来,水质恶化趋势明显加剧.     

厦门湾浮游植物分布现状和水质状况评价

文章通过2015年8月航次对厦门湾周边海域浮游植物群落结构特征以及相关环境因子进行调查。结果表明:调查共鉴定浮游植物2门25属41种,其中硅藻24属39种,甲藻1属2种,浮游植物细胞密度介于4.32×105~7.79×106个/m3。浮游植物的主要趋势是从九龙江口-厦门鼓浪屿海域向同安湾以及湾外递减,鼓浪屿海域属于高密度区域,这和营养盐的变化趋势基本相同。富营养化指数(E)平均为7.12,N/P值平均为17.36,说明水体呈富营养化,且营养盐结构表现为磷限制。根据研究结果显示,厦门湾近岸水体营养盐含量较高,浮游植物含量也较高,极容易引起赤潮,因此控制含氮磷污水的流入是改善水质状况的关键。     

莱州湾海水中营养盐分布与富营养化的关系

根据2001年5月和9月2个航次莱州湾海区海水营养盐等的调查资料,分析了该海域海水中5项营养盐的分布特征及时空变化,评价了水质的富营养化状况。结果表明,溶解无机氮的平均浓度为9.80μmol/dm3,2个季节中溶解无机氮以NO3-N浓度为最高,平均为7.61μmol/dm3,占总无机氮的77.65%,是莱州湾海水中的无机氮主要形式;活性磷酸盐的平均浓度为0.48μmol/dm3,活性硅酸盐的平均浓度为11.31μmol/dm3。研究发现,莱州湾海水中溶解无机氮和活性磷酸盐浓度分别是12 a前的2.03倍和3.2倍。DIN∶P,Si∶P,Si∶DIN比值分别为69.5,34.2,1.4;因此,磷酸盐为限制因素。按照营养状态指数值,莱州湾海区湾顶近岸海域划分为富营养化区,秋季一旦水文气象等条件适宜有发生赤潮的可能。     

桑沟湾海水中营养盐分布及潜在性富营养化分析

根据2003年8月—2004年7月桑沟湾海区12个航次海水营养盐的调查资料,分析了该海区海水营养盐的分布特征及时空变化,评价了水质的潜在性富营养化状况。结果表明,溶解无机氮的年平均浓度为10.15μmol/dm3。4个季节中溶解无机氮以NO3-N为主要存在形式,占年平均含量的78.69%,其中以秋季的含量为最高。NH3-N占无机氮年平均含量的15.11%,NO2-N占无机氮年平均含量的6.20%。活性磷酸盐的年平均浓度为0.23μmol/dm3,浓度呈现春季较低和秋季较高的分布特征。活性硅酸盐的年平均浓度为2.86μmol/dm3,浓度呈现冬季较低和夏季较高的分布特征。DIN∶P,Si∶DIN和Si∶P的比值年平均分别为43.2,0.31和13.4,磷酸盐和硅酸盐为限制因素。与1983年在该海域所获数据比较发现,溶解无机氮的浓度是20年前的10.7倍,活性磷酸盐的浓度较20年前降低了43.9%,活性硅酸盐的浓度较20年前降低了34.1%。桑沟湾海区营养水平仍很低,总体上处于贫营养或中度营养化阶段,海水水质质量较好。     

闽江河口咸淡水混合过程中营养盐含量的变化特征

为研究闽江水体营养盐等物质的输运作用,于2009年11月(秋季),分3个航段(北支、南支及闽江河口区)同步对闽江下游及其河口区表、底层水的盐度、营养盐、悬浮物含量等进行观测,并在北支流、南支流交汇处的19站(罗星塔附近)进行了一个潮周期的连续观测.调查期间闽江表层水体中无机氮含量变化范围在0.640～3.873 mg/dm3之间,平均值为1.789 mg/dm3;活性磷酸盐含量变化范围在0.011～0.059 mg/dm3之间,平均值为0.027 mg/dm3;可溶性硅酸盐含量变化范围在0.82～7.10 mg/dm3之间,平均值为3.77 mg/dm3;总氮含量变化范围在0.67～3.91 mg/dm3之间,平均值为2.39 mg/dm3;总磷含量变化范围在0.027～0.289 mg/dm3之间,平均值为0.087mg/dm3.水体各营养盐含量的平面分布呈闽江北支流的含量均高于南支流,其高值区受陆源输入的影响集中出现在21～23号站区间.受城市污水影响的北支流水体与南支流水体交汇后,近海河段水体营养盐含量迅速降低.在一个潮周期内,涨潮时,随着外海水占比的提高,营养盐含量呈现随着盐度升高而逐步降低的趋势;在退潮时,陆源冲淡水的作用逐渐加强,营养盐在河口表现为随着盐度降低而逐步增高的趋势.闽江河口水体活性磷酸盐含量与盐度没有显著的相关性,为非保守要素;而无机氮、可溶性硅酸盐和总氮整体表现为保守要素.同时,发现在闽江河口盐楔端浊度最大值的"滤器"滞留区,总氮含量受其富集的影响在底层产生一个高值区.     

莱州湾西南部海域及其毗邻河流水体营养盐的分布特征及长期变化趋势

根据2012年9月对莱州湾西南部海域及其毗邻10条河流的调查结果,以及近30年来关于莱州湾海域表层水营养盐的调查资料,报道了各条河流和近海海域的营养盐状况及该海域营养盐的长期变化趋势,结果表明:(1)10条主要调查河流的总溶解态氮(TDN)平均含量在1.82~10.66mg/L之间,其中有8条河流超过河流总氮劣五类水质标准,6条河流硝态氮(NO3-N)含量高于氨氮(NH4-N)。(2)所调查的5个近海断面中小清河口近海断面、虞河口近海断面及溢洪河口近海断面的DIN平均含量超过海水无机氮第四类水质标准;除小清河口近海断面外其余近海断面活性磷(PO4-P)含量均属一类海水水质。(3)部分断面营养盐含量在河口混合区淡水端升高,可能与咸淡水混合动力作用相关;莱州湾西部区域营养盐含量高于南部区域,南部的堤河氮、磷含量极高;原油开采活动可能是影响附近水体中营养盐含量及形态的重要因素。(4)从20世纪80年代初至90年代中期,莱州湾表层水无机氮平均含量经历了由低到高的变化,到90年代后期已属劣四类海水水质;无机磷平均含量在该时段呈降低趋势,但到90年代后期也保持在较高水平,随后又波动下降。(5)所调查的莱州湾近海区域整体处于磷限制潜在富营养状态;氮磷摩尔比(N∶P)在所考察的大部分时段内高于Redfield阈值(16),净营养盐收支呈磷减少而氮增加的总体变化趋势,近年来磷限制程度有所减缓。     

Size-fractionated uranium isotopes in surface waters in the Jiulong Estuary in China

Surface water was collected from the Jiulong Estuary for determination of activity concentrations of uranium isotopes in different size fractions, namely, greater than 53, 10 -53, 2 - 10, 0.4 -2 μm, 10 000 u -0.4 μm and less than 10 000 u fractions by microfihration and cross-flow uhrafiltration technologies. Results indicated that most of the dissolved uranium （ 〈 0.4 μm） exis- ted in the low molecular mass fraction （ 〈 10 000 u）, and the colloidal uranium-238 （10 000 u -0.4 μm） only contributed less than 1% of the dissolved uranium-238. The fractions of colloidal uranium in the dissolved phases decreased with the increasing sa- linity. A positive linear relationship between uranium-238 activities and salinities was observed for the dissolved, colloidal and low molecular mass fractions, indicating a conservative behavior of uranium in the Jiulong Estuary. In the particulate phases （ 〉 0.4 μm）, the partitioning of uranium isotopes among different size fractions was controlled by the partitioning of particle concentrations. In the regions with salinities below 20, the partitioning of uranium-238 among different size fractions was as follows： 10 - 53 μm 〉 2 - 10 μm 〉 0.4 - 2 μm greater than above 53 μm. However, the order at the offshore station with salinities above 30 changed as follows ： 0.4 - 2 μm 〉 10 - 53 μm 〉 2 - 10 μm greater than above 53 μm. The fraction of the 0.4 - 2 μm particles increased at the offshore station, suggesting the increased contribution of the authigenic uranium. The activity ratio of uranium-234 to uranium-238 in the dissolved phases, including the low molecular mass fraction and the colloidal fraction, was larger than unity, showing the occurrence of excess uranium-234. In contrast, the activity ratio of uranium-234 to uranium-238 in all size fractions of the particulate phase was close to the equilibrium value （1.0）. The observed different values of the activity ratio of uranium-234 to uranium-238 in the dissolved phase and the partic

Challenges in cross-sectoral marine protection in Europe

Marine environment protection in Europe faces a number of challenges. One is the coordination of relevant sectoral policies — such as agricultural and fisheries policies — with regard to marine protection objectives. The question in the following is on how marine protection issues can be more closely integrated in sectoral policies under the conditions prevailing at present. In particular the strength and weaknesses of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) as the key instrument for marine environment protection in Europe are analyzed in this context. In particular, the MSFD does not adequately address all sectors and policies which are relevant to marine environment protection. One possible means of giving the MSFD greater influences on other policies of relevance to marine waters is to integrate the objectives established under the MSFD in the European maritime policy. The aim should be to require the further development of sectoral policies to take unrestricted account of the objectives of the MSFD implementation process. But also other instruments of marine policy such as maritime spatial planning and marine protected areas are crucial to advance the protection of European seas.

Recent progress in submarine geosciences in China

In China submarine geosciences represents a newly established discipline of oceanography, focusing on the oceanic lithosphere, and its interface with the hydrosphere and biosphere. Recently, supported by the National High Technology Research and Development Program and other high-tech development projects, significant progress has been made in the development of advanced technologies and equipment. This en- ables the scientists in China to carry out explorations of the international seabed area in the Pacific Ocean and on the Southwest Indian Ridge. In addition, they have been active in the research activities associated the mid-ocean ridges and western Pacific marginal seas. It is anticipated that this research field will continue to be highly fruitful in the near future.

Seasonality in nutrient concentrations in Galveston Bay

In order to investigate factors controlling nutrient cycling in the shallow and turbid coastal ecosystem of Galveston Bay, data from: (1) the Texas Water Commission (TWC) database 1980–1989, and (2) salinity transects in 1989 and 1993 are presented and analyzed. Statistical regression and time-series analysis were carried out on data acquired by TWC between 1980 and 1989, in an attempt to establish seasonally of nutrient and chlorophyll-a (chl.-a.) concentrations in the bay and to determine factors which regulate these concentrations.A strong seasonality was found for phosphorus and chl.-a. in the upper and mid-bay stations. A recurring maximum for phosphate occurred in September and a chl.-a. maximum occurred regularly in March–April. It is hypothesized that benthic regeneration of phosphorus at the end of summer is responsible for the phosphate maximum. The inverse correlation of the partition coefficient (K_d) for phosphate with the concentration of suspended particulate matter (SPM), coupled to a strong enrichment of phosphate in suspended particles at low SPM concentrations, indicates additional control by geochemical and physical processes such as particle sorting and/or particle-colloid interactions. Nitrate is inversely correlated with salinity at the upper and mid-bay stations, indicating the Trinity River is a major source.Nutrient concentrations in the lower bay (East and West Bay stations) are considerably lower and less predictable, as they are not correlated with salinity or temperature. Data from the 1989 and 1993 transects confirm the yearly maximum in phosphate concentration in late summer months, with peak concentrations in the upper Trinity Bay. It is concluded that despite possible phosphate buffering by physical and geochemical mechanisms, relatively large concentration maxima recur regularly every year during the summer, possibly caused by a benthic source of phosphate.
