Determination of the apparent copper complexing capacity of seawater by anodic stripping voltammetry

A new experimental technique using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry with a thin-film mercury electrode and efficient mixing of the electrolyte for the apparent copper complexing capacity of seawater is proposed. The effects of some factors such as type of electrode and cell, pH of the solution, potential of deposition, time of equilibration, and influence of a non-ionic surface active agent on the measurements are examined. Experimental results for the apparent copper complexing capacity of seawater are calculated presuming 1:1 inert complex formation. By using EDTA as a model ligand, it is shown that the proposed procedure with efficient mixing of the solution excludes any appreciable kinetic influence upon the electroanalytical results.

Use of an ion exchange technique to measure copper complexing capacity on the continental shelf of the southeastern United States and in the Sargasso Sea

An ion exchange technique has been used to determine the copper complexing capacity (CuCC) of strong organic complexing agents at 21 stations across the continental shelf of the southeastern United States and in the western Sargasso Sea. The concentration of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and total particulate materal (TPM), two pools of potential complexing agents, was also measured at each station. The CuCC ranged from 0.014 to 1.681 μM Cu dm⁻³ on the inner shelf, from 0.043 to 0.095 μM Cu dm⁻³ in mid and outer shelf waters, and from < 0.010 to 0.036 μM Cu dm⁻³ at the Sargasso Sea stations. The correlation between CuCC and both DOC and TPM is highly significant (α < 0.01). Two synoptic surveys of the distribution of DOC and TPM across the shelf showed that DOC ranges from > 3 mg C dm⁻³ nearshore to <1 mg C dm⁻³ offshore and that TPM ranges from > 50 mg dm⁻³ nearshore to <1 mg dm⁻³ offshore. Both TPM and DOC are most variable on the inner shelf. These data are consistent with CuCC data which indicate that the CuCC of inner shelf waters was relatively high and very heterogeneous. In contrast, DOC, TPM and copper complexing capacity are low and nearly invariant at the Sargasso Sea stations. We present a model of the distribution of complexing agents in different marine environments and hypothesize that the mechanisms underlying differences between environments relate to differences in the source(s) and nature of complexing agents in each system.

Empirical relationship between sea surface temperature and water vapor: Improvement of the physical model with remote sensing derived data

We have improved the previous model quantifying the bulk relationship between two key geophysical parameters, sea surface temperature (SST) and water vapor (WV) based on 14-year accumulated datasets. This improvement is achieved by the modification of the physical model derived by Stephens in 1990 and Gaffen et al. in 1992. With this improved model, we estimated WV between 2002 and 2004 using historical SST measurements. The estimated WV was compared with those derived from Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) observation and National Centers for Environmental Predictions (NCEP) reanalysis. Discrepancies of −1.16 mm and 3.19 mm with TMI-and NCEP-derived WV were obtained, respectively, suggesting a reliable retrieval of WV using the improved model. The improved model can potentially be used to calibrate and validate the WV measurements from other observations or model reanalyses, given that the accurate measurement of WV over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales has been a challenging task hitherto. Due to the limited time span of the current data, the temporal variation of WV in parts of the tropical oceans is not captured in this improved model, which we should study further with additional accumulation of SST and WV datasets in the future.

渤海叶绿素 a 浓度与环境因素的响应关系研究

基于 2003－2018 年的遥感反演和再分析数据, 分别在时域和频域上分析了渤海海表面温度、光合有效辐射、气溶 胶厚度、风速与叶绿素 a 浓度之间的响应关系。通过傅里叶变换在频域上得到各因素之间的相关性系数, 其显著高于直接在 时域上计算得到的相关性系数, 表明由于相位差的影响, 直接在时域进行相关性分析很可能会低估各因素之间的相关性。傅 里叶变换后的频谱图显示, 叶绿素 a 浓度存在一年、半年、4 个月与季节周期; 风速与气溶胶厚度存在明显的一年和半年周 期; 海表面温度和光合有效辐射具有明显的一年周期, 半年周期较其他几个因素不明显。交叉谱分析的结果表明： 叶绿素 a 浓度和所选的环境因子都在一年周期下具有最大的交叉振幅, 表明在此频率下响应最大; 风速、气溶胶厚度、光合有效辐射 分别超前于叶绿素 a 浓度约 5.0 个月、0.2 个月、0.2 个月, 海表面温度则滞后 1.9 个月。各环境因子之间相互关联, 共同影 响叶绿素 a 浓度的时间分布。

Benthic fluxes of copper,complexing ligands and thiol compounds in shallow lagoon waters

Benthic fluxes of copper, copper complexing ligands and thiol compounds in the shallow waters of Venice Lagoon (Italy) were determined using benthic chambers and compared to porewater concentrations to confirm their origin. Benthic copper fluxes were small due to small concentration differences between the porewaters and the overlying water, and the equilibrium concentration was the same at both sites, suggesting that the sediments acted to buffer the copper concentration. Thiol fluxes were ～10 × greater at 50–60 pmol cm^?2 h^?1, at the two sites. Porewater measurements demonstrated that the sediments were an important source of the thiols to the overlying waters. The overlying waters were found to contain at least two ligands, a strong one, L1 (log K′_CuL1 = 14.2) and a weaker one, L2 (log K′_CuL2 = 12.5). The concentration of L1 remained relatively constant during the incubation and similar to that of copper, whereas that of L2 was in great excess of copper, its concentration balanced by porewater releases and breakdown, probably due to uptake by microorganisms, similar to that of the thiol compounds. Similarity of the thiol and L2 concentrations and similar complex stability with copper suggest that L2 was dominated by the thiols. The free copper concentration ([Cu´]) in the Lagoon waters was lowered by a factor of 10⁵ as a result of the organic complexation.     

西太平洋暖池水体振荡与赤道中东太平洋海表温度异常的关联性初探

赤道中东太平洋海表温度异常是研究ENSO(El Ni?o-South Oscillation)的重要指标。本文利用海洋再分析数据,着眼于西太平洋暖池暖水体三维结构的年际变异特征,分析西太平洋暖池水体变动与赤道中东太平洋海表温度异常的关联性,并从前期西太平洋暖池三维暖水体的结构演变及其在上层海洋质量与热量配置中的作用角度,探究了赤道中东太平洋关键Ni?o分区海表温度异常变化的内在一致性,以期为ENSO的预测预报提供新的思路和依据。分析表明,ENSO尺度上西太平洋暖池三维结构变异主模态表现为暖水体平均约以170oE为轴的纬向时空振荡,其可超前赤道中东太平洋海表温度异常变化约达6个月,并以在赤道中东太平洋及附近海域形成双舌状异常"暖池"为显著特征。前期暖池暖水体的纬向振荡是赤道中东太平洋海表温度异常变化的重要前兆信息之一。作为海洋中ENSO暴发的重要源区和驱动因子,西太平洋暖池纬向振荡通过在中东太平洋形成不同强度(泛指暖水量及其深度和范围等的大小)的异常"暖池",进而在上层海洋质量和热量的纬向配置中起关键性作用,并且可能与不同EI Ni?o事件的触发机制密切相关,从这种意义上讲,不同ENSO事件的发生和发展存在一定的同源一致性。     

The relationship between the amplitudinal characteristics of the high-frequency spectral components of wind-generated waves and the wind velocity over the sea

The relationship between the RMS amplitudes of the wind wave spectral components and the wind speed has been studied at ten frequencies in the band of 0.65–23 Hz. To measure the parameters of the high-frequenci waves, a resistance elevation wave gauge was operated, which was deployed in the Black See on an oceanographic platform near Katsively. The correlation between the wave amplitudes and the wind velocity at high frequencies of 5–23 Hz, corresponding to gravitation-capillary ripples, was found to reach a value of 0.8. At lower frequencies of 0.65–4.3 Hz, corresponding to short gravity waves, it dropped to 0.5–0.7. The response of spectral components to the wind speed variations in the gravity-capillary range is higher than in the range of short gravity waves. The results obtained differ from Phillips' idea about a saturated range for the frequency form of the spectrum of high-frequency gravity waves, since a linear dependence of the spectral amplitudes on the wind speed is established at a wind of force 1–8.Translated by Mikhail M. Trufanov.     

Copper complexing capacity in cultures of Phaeodactylum tricornutum: Diurnal changes

In batch cultures of the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum, organic materials capable of complexing ionic copper were released to the culture medium at all stages of growth; however, the largest proportion was released after the diatoms had reached the stationary phase. When the organisms were maintained in log phase growth in a cage culture turbidostat, a diurnal fluctuation in complexing capacity was found, similar to fluctuations measured in field populations.     

Copper complexing capacity of seawater: A critical appraisal of the direct ASV method

The break-point in the Cu(II) titration curve obtained by anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) is usually attributed to the formation of strong organo-copper complexes. This interpretation is the basis for the direct determination by ASV of the copper complexing capacity of natural waters. The present study suggests, however, that the break in the Cu(II) titration curve in seawater, as determined by ASV, could be due to the formation of a ZnCu intermetallic compound (IC) formed in the mercury during the deposition stage of the ASV procedure.     

The content of selenium and its chemical form in sea water

By using the new fluorometric method of determination of the total selenium ( Se), Se (IV) and Se (VI), the content of selenium in sea weter was determined in the western North Pacific. Results showed that the content of Se in surface water ranged from 0.06 to 0.12g l^–1, while in deeper layers, the content increased to 0.20g l^–1. It was found that Se (IV) showed rather uniform distribution with depth, while Se (VI) increased with depth to about three times that in the surface. The ratio of Se (IV) to the Se ranged from 0.5 to 0.8 in the surface and 0.4 to 0.6 in the deep. The coexistence of the hexa- and tetravalent ions of selenium was confirmed both in surface and deep layers. Some results of observations on the content of selenium in the coastal areas of Japan were also reported.
