Impact of the winter cooling on the variability of the thermohaline characteristics of the active layer in the Black Sea 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The influence of the winter atmospheric forcing on the interannual variability of the Black Sea’s active layer’s thermohaline
structure during 1982–2008 is investigated. The results are based on the combined analysis of the hydrological measurements
from a ship, satellite measurements of the sea’s surface temperature (SST), and the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data for the surface
air temperature (SAT). A high correlation between the variability of the winter mean SST/SAT and the thermohaline characteristics
of the active layer during the following warm season was found. It is shown that the winter atmospheric forcing significantly
affects the variability of the temperature, salinity, and density down to the 150–200 m depth, and this has to be considered
in the analysis of the interannual and long-term variability of the Black Sea’s active layer. 相似文献

A methodology of experimental simulation of the state of spent nuclear fuel that is situated on the sea bottom as a result
of some catastrophes or dumping is developed. Data on long-term (more than 2000 days) experiments on the estimation of the
85Kr and 137Cs release rate from spent nuclear fuel (fragments of irradiated UO2 pellets) were first obtained; these estimates prove the correctness of the hypothesis put forward by us in the early 1990s
concerning an earlier 85Kr release (by one order of magnitude higher than that of 137Cs) as compared to other fission fragments in the case of the loss of integrity of a fuel containment as a result of corrosion
on the sea bottom. The method and technique of the onboard 85Kr and 137Cs sampling and extraction (as well as the sampling of tritium, a product of triple 235U fission) and their radiometric analysis at coastal laboratories are developed. Priority data on the 85Kr background in the bottom layers of the Barents and Kara Seas and the 137Cs and 3H in these seas (state of 2003) are presented. Models necessary for the estimation of the dilution of the fission products
of spent nuclear fuel and their transport on the bottom in accident and dumping regions are developed. An experimental method
for the examination of the state of spent nuclear fuel on the sea bottom (1 expedition each 2–3 years) by the 85Kr release into the environment (a leak tracer) is proposed; this release is an indicator of the destruction of a fuel containment
and the release of products of spent nuclear fuel in the case of 235UO2 corrosion in sea water. 相似文献

The role of the small-size (SF; 0.1–0.5 mm) and large-size (LF; 0.5–20.0 mm) fractions in the biomass and abundance of mesozooplankton
(0.1–20.0 mm) was assessed using the database of samples obtained during the cruises of RV Akvanavt in the northeastern Black Sea in November 2000 and October 2006. The mesozooplankton was collected by means of Juday nets
(37/50, filtering gauze 160 μm) and Niskin bottles in two areas: (1) the shelf and continental slope (30–1480 m depth) and
(2) the deep sea (depths of more than 1500 m). The plankton net was considerably less effective in collecting the SF of the
mesozooplankton (by a factor of 30–36) than the Niskin bottles. When comparing the SF and LF, we estimated the abundance and
biomass of the SF in the samples obtained with the Niskin bottles. The abundance of the SF in the deep-sea area was 2.5 times
lower compared to the shelf and continental slope, and the LF abundance was 5.0 times lower in the same way. The abundance
of the SF constituted 88% of the total mesozooplankton on the shelf and continental slope, and 78% in the deep-sea area. The
biomass of the SF was higher as well on the shelf and continental slope. Meroplankton played a significant role in the SF
zooplankton abundance (0.5 × 103 + 0.16 ind. m−3) in this area. The SF grazing impact was 10% of the total mesozooplankton grazing on the shelf and continental slope, and
17% in the deepsea area. Appendicularia and nauplii of copepods had the greatest contribution to the mesozooplankton grazing
among the SF group. 相似文献

By using the data of observations over the spatial variability of the temperature field in the northwest part of the Tropical
Atlantic carried out in a test range 400 × 400 miles in size with a horizontal resolution Δx ≈ 2 km and a vertical resolution Δz ≈ 0.5 m, we recorded quasiperiodic fluctuations of temperature with semidiurnal period in the subsurface layer. The internal
baroclinic waves with the same period generated, most likely, on the northeast shelf of South America and propagating to the
northeast are detected in the seasonal thermocline. The vertical fine structure of the temperature field has different intensities
in the test range. The maximum levels of dispersions of temperature fluctuations are recorded on the boundary of the North
Equatorial Countercurrent and the North Equatorial Current.

During spring blooms 1998 and 1999, three complementary methods were used to evaluate the in situ feeding activities of the dominant copepod species of the Belgian coastal zone: gut pigment content analysis using HPLC, the 14C tracer method, and cell count experiments. The results obtained by all three methods consistently showed that Phaeocystis globosa is not an adequate food source for the spring copepods in the Belgian coastal zone. Our results demonstrated that, among the potential prey, copepods strongly selected diatoms and microzooplankton, and that these types of prey accounted for the major part of the ingested carbon. However, diatoms and microzooplankton ingestion did not always seem sufficient in terms of carbon to avoid food limitation. Comparison of clearance rates exerted on different potential prey types during the P. globosa peak with those before and after the P. globosa peak showed that the copepods' feeding pressure on diatoms was reduced during the P. globosa peak while that on microzooplankton was not. The low grazing pressure on P. globosa, together with the preferential grazing on diatoms, which reduces the competition for nutrients, and the predation on microzooplankton organisms, which reduces the microzooplankton grazing pressure on P. globosa cells, are likely to favour the P. globosa bloom in the Southern Bight of the North Sea. 相似文献

222Rn was measured in the near-bottom waters of the continental slope of the Mid-Atlantic Bight. Separate measurements of the 222Rn supported by dissolved 226Ra allowed the excess 222Rn that is derived from the underlying sediments to be distinguished. Measurements of production of 222Rn by the sediments were used to calculate fluxes of 222Rn from sediments that would be expected as a result of molecular diffusion. On the upper slope and on the lower slope excess 222Rn standing crops were, respectively, greater than and consistent with fluxes of radon from sediments by molecular diffusion as are typical of most ocean environments. On the middle slope, however, observed excess 222Rn concentrations and standing crops were significantly lower than what would be expected from the calculated fluxes from the underlying sediments. This unusual feature of low radon concentrations on the middle slope is referred to as the low-radon zone (LRZ). This LRZ was always present over several years and seasons, but was variable in intensity (excess-radon concentration and standing crop) and in location on the slope. Low concentrations of suspended particulate matter and low current velocities observed by others in the same region are consistent with low mixing as a possible cause of the LRZ. Radon profile shapes and recent work by others on near bottom mixing due to interactions between topography and internal waves, however, suggest that high mixing due to internal waves is a more likely cause of the LRZ. 相似文献

Research was implemented from September 15 through October 4, 2011 in the Kara Sea along transects located southeastwards Novaya Zemlya, in the St. Anna Trough, the Yenisei River estuary, and the adjacent shelf. The concentration of chlorophyll a was the highest in the photic zone (0.05–2.30 mg/m3, on average, 0.80 ± 0.37 mg/m3). The maximal concentration of Chl a at most of the stations located in the water layer of 7–30 m. Integral primary production in the water column varied from 3.0 to 151.0 mg C/m2 per day, on average, 37.2 ± 36.6 mg C/m2 per day. The maximal rate of primary production at most of the stations has been observed for the surface layer of the water column. Within the upper mixed water layer, relative primary production was from 31 to 100% (on average, 77 ± 20%). The most productive zone was the waters along Yenisei transect. In the estuary and at the adjacent shelf, primary production was 50 mg C/m2 per day, exceeding the range observed for other areas by 1.5–2.0 times. The concentrations of silica and nitrogen together with light regime and water temperature were the major limiting factors affecting the primary production rate in the Kara Sea in autumn. 相似文献

The variability of the mesozooplankton stock in the shelf pelagic communities was studied in the late summer and autumn of
2006–2008. The plankton community’s structure and distribution were described for the shoreward transect (Gelendzhik city
vicinity). The indirect and direct effect of the ctenophores Mnemiopsis leidyi and Beroe ovata on the mesozooplankton community was studied. The long-term changes in the meso- and macroplankton communities of the Black
Sea were analyzed for the period of 2001–2008. The effects of the climatic factors, the water mass circulation, and the factors’
interplay on the mesozooplankton dynamics were assessed. Despite the wide range of the environmental conditions, the stock
biomass of Mnemiopsis leidyi appeared to be quite stable within the studied period. 相似文献

The influence of the sea surface temperature (SST) on the carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange with the atmosphere at different spatial and temporal scales, which has a multidirectional character, was studied. The initial data included the monthly averages of the CO2 flux during the period of 1982–2011 at grid nodes of 4° by latitude and 5° by longitude, as well as the SST satellite data from January 1, 1982 to December 31, 2012 at the geographical grid nodes of 0.25° × 0.25°. Statistical models of estimation of the resulting global CO2 flux were suggested on the basis of data on SST anomalies. It is demonstrated that the SST variations in the equatorial zone mostly control the interannual fluctuations of the resulting CO2 flux in the ocean-atmosphere system. 相似文献

A 3D eco-hydrodynamical model of high resolution (0.25° × 0.25°, 27 σ-levels) is used to simulate the seasonal variability of the ocean circulation and marine ecosystem in the Central-Eastern Basin of the North Atlantic including the Canary upwelling system. According to the model results, in the winter period, the “patches” of maximal phytoplankton and zooplankton biomass are often located in upwelling zones in the open ocean on the periphery of cyclonic eddies rather than in the coastal upwelling zones. In the summer period, when the phytoplankton biomass reaches maximal (in the annual cycle) values, the maxima of the phytoplankton are located in the coastal upwelling zones. As shown, there is no simple relationship between the nitrate distributions, on the one hand, and the phytoplankton and zooplankton ones, on the other hand. 相似文献

We study the formation of the vertical distribution of temperature in the upper layer of the oceans (0– 300m) at low latitudes (10°N-10°S) by using the nonlinear dependence of the vertical heat flow on the vertical temperature gradient with regard for the influence of the bulk absorption of solar radiation and heat sink on the temperature of water. The thermocline is formed under the condition that the modulus of temperature gradient attains values for which their subsequent increase leads either to insignificant variations of the heat flow or even to its decrease. We consider the possibility of solution of inverse problems for the evaluation of the heat-exchange coefficient and the parameter of the heat sink. For the Equatorial Atlantic considered as an example, we compare the theoretical results with the data of instrumental measurements.__________Translated from Morskoi Gidrofizicheskii Zhurnal, No. 6, pp. 10–16, November–December, 2004. 相似文献

This paper focuses on the impact of periodic internal waves on the oxygen/hydrogen sulphide co-existence zone in the open Black Sea. The numerical model is based on a set of transport/diffusion equations governing the evolution of oxygen/hydrogen sulphide concentrations and considering the reaction between them. The wave velocity field is determined by solving a spectrum problem for preinertial period internal waves, using the characteristic vertical density profile for summertime. Via analysis of the model data, the influence of wave characteristics on the parameters of the O2/H2S co-existence zone has been assessed.Translated by Vladimir A. Puchkin. 相似文献

It is known that by the general ‘geostrategy’ for the oceans we mean the behaviour of countries of the world in defending their own vital economic interests as projected on different oceans. The means for protecting national interests can be economic, political, diplomatic or military. This paper dwells in particular on these last aspects, offering in the first part some useful reflections on the analysis of regional seas. The second part gives elements for the understanding of the complex Mediterranean situation where the East-West confrontation is accentuated by widespread economic, political, ideological and ethnic contrasts between coastal states. For these reasons this sea can be defined as one of the most unstable and belligerent regions in the world. 相似文献

Ten years of semistationary studies of the interaction of the ice cover and the coastal relief of the Kandalakhsa Gulf in the White Sea allowed us to reveal the peculiarities of these processes in the warm and cold years and the mechanisms of the origination of ice forms, including ice tents, which govern the character of the tidal flats. Three dynamic fast ice zones are distinguished by their geomorphological location, morphology, and ice dynamics. The dependence of the mechanisms and volumes of the enrichment of the fast ice in the sediments on the coastal zone??s relief was established. At the coast of the Kindo Peninsula (Velikaya Salma Strait), the ice mostly contains fine-sandy sediments. Coarser sediments, including boulders, are occasional and frozen into the ice at the contact of the fast ice and the bottom. At the expense of the ice??s spreading by 4?C6 times in the warm years and 2?C4 times in the cold years, several thousand tons of sediments mostly from the tidal flat??s surface (100?C700 m3 from 1 km of coast in the wide tidal flats and <50 m3 on the steep coasts) are delivered to the water area. 相似文献

According to the results of the international expedition aboard the R/Vs Roger Revelle and Professor Khromov in the summer 1999, areas with low oxygen contents (below 210 μM/kg) and those with increased contents of dissolved inorganic carbon and phosphates were found that roughly coincided with one another. These areas are located near the bottom on the southwestern slope of the Tsushima Basin in the region of the Korea Strait and on the continental slope in the region of the Tatar Strait in the northern part of the sea at about 46° N. The set of hydrochemical data points to a high geochemical activity in the near-bottom layer of the areas noted. This activity is confirmed by direct observations of the composition of the interstitial water in the sediments collected in the northern part of the sea during the expedition of R/V Akademik M.A. Lavrent’ev in 2003. It was supposed that the main cause of the increased geochemical activity is the runoff of suspended and dissolved matter from the Korea and Tatar straits. In the areas mentioned, the near-bottom waters are characterized by low values of the nitrogen-phosphorus ratio (below 10), which is geochemical proof of the denitrification process occurring under the conditions of high oxygen concentrations characteristic of the Sea of Japan. Based on the value of the annual production in the Sea of Japan, a rate of denitrification equal to 3.4 × 1012 gN/year was calculated. Hence, it is confirmed that the geochemical processes in the near-bottom layer have a direct influence on the spatiotemporal characteristics of the hydrochemical properties of the waters of the Sea of Japan. 相似文献

Three mathematical models are considered: a two-dimensional model for calculating the concentration fields of the ecosystem components on the shelf of the Republic of Guinea, a pointwise model for the annual variation of the components, and a two predators-prey model. These models are used to study the effect of hydrodynamic conditions on the state of the shelf ecosystem and for research into the causes which distort the balance between marketable and unmarketable fish.Translated by Mikhail M.

This study strives to analyze the compressibility of deep water marine sediments originating from the Gulf of Guinea. Our approach is multi-scaled and, on the macroscopic level, based on two equations which link the overburden effective stress with the liquidity index, the Biarez & Favre equation on the one hand, and the Burland equation on the other hand (after calculation of the ICL expression as a function of the IL parameter). On the local level, the evolution of the microstructures is analysed and compared with GoG remoulded clay. Two additional observation techniques have been used, the scanning electron microscope and the mercury intrusion porosimetry. 相似文献

With the latitudinal variability of the Coriolis parameter considered, the influence of the vertical density structure on the parameters of free internal waves is stuided. Numerical calculations are performed for Brunt-Väisälä frequency profiles characteristic of the four seasons of the year in the deep section of the Black Sea. Results of the analysis of the dependences of the wavenumber and group velocity on the frequency are presented, and the domain of application of thef-plane approximation is defined.Translated by V.
