胶州湾营养盐限制作用空间差异和长期变化的数值研究

以胶州湾为研究区域,建立箱式生态动力学模型,模拟得到胶州湾浮游植物生长受营养盐限制情况的季节变化;通过数值实验分析了胶州湾营养盐限制的区域差异,并进一步比较了1960、1980年代及本世纪初营养盐限制情况的区别。结果表明,胶州湾内的营养盐限制作用有显著的季节变化。春季由于浮游植物旺发消耗大量营养盐,使得湾内营养盐限制春末最强;夏季是河流丰水季,营养盐补充充足,湾内营养盐限制最弱。从不同区域来看,养殖区全年表现为硅限制;河口区和湾口区夏季为磷限制,其他季节为硅限制。营养盐限制作用湾口区最强,养殖区次之,河口区最弱。受此影响,浮游植物生物量河口区最高,湾口区最低。从长期变化来看,1960年代,胶州湾内的营养盐限制作用以氮限制为主,1980年代呈硅和磷交替限制,逐渐演变到本世纪初的以硅限制为主,而且由于营养盐限制作用的逐渐增强,浮游植物生物量也呈现不断下降的趋势。

营养盐Ｎ,Ｐ,Ｓｉ,Ｆｅ是浮游植物生长和繁殖必不可少的元素。Ｎ,Ｐ,Ｓｉ,Ｆｅ营养盐对浮游植物生长的限制的研究在不断加深,在南大洋、太平洋近北极的水域、印度洋、太平洋的赤道海域、秘鲁海域、切萨皮克(Ｃｈｅｓａｐｅａｋｅ)湾等许多海域在进行研究,科学的发展趋势和结果使人们目前逐渐了解了营养盐对浮游植物的生长影响的机理和过程,同时,也了解了营养盐生物地球化学过程。因此,在国际上有关这方面的研究变得越来越重要。作者以胶州湾为研究海区,利用多年的监测资料,比较分析了该水域的主要理化因子与浮游植物、初级生产力的关系,探讨…     

生物硅的生成与溶解速率的研究——以胶州湾为例

营养盐的含量与元素间的比值直接控制着生态系统的生产力和浮游植物的种类组成.近岸海区硅藻可占初级生产的75%,但其生长速率受Si(OH)4含量的限制.胶州湾浮游植物的物种组成以硅藻为主.用29Si同位素示踪培养方法,采用四极杆质谱同位素稀释技术同时测定了胶州湾硅的生成速率与溶解速率.胶州湾生物硅(BSi)的含量为0.90～1.14 μmol/L,岩成硅(LSi)的含量为46.3～52.3 μmol/L.岩成硅是生物硅的约50倍.胶州湾BSi的含量处于世界近岸海区的低值范围,LSi的含量与LSi/BSi的比值均处于高值区.BSi的绝对生成速率为4～6 nmol/L*d,比生成速率为6～17/d.BSi的绝对溶解速率为<9 nmol/d,比溶解速率为<23/d.进一步开展胶州湾不同季节水体中BSi的生成速率与溶解速率的研究,是深入认识海湾浮游植物生长限制及其资源可持续利用的基础.     

光照时间和水温对浮游植物生长影响的初步剖析——以胶州湾为例

能语言是一般描述系统的一种方法 ,因为所有现象都伴随着能的转化［６］。整个世界生态系统的功能几乎毫无例外地取决于海洋植物光合作用固定的能量。其中 ,最大量的能量是由生活在海洋有光照的表层水中的微小浮游植物固定的［８］。因此 ,作者以胶州湾为例 ,尝试考虑太阳的热能给水体的能量输入及对水体生态系统浮游植物的生长过程的影响 ,认为光不仅是浮游植物的光合作用的能源而且是水体贮藏热能来提高水温的来源。本文用模型框图进行分解讨论光照时间、水温对浮游植物生长的影响过程 ,以阐释胶州湾光照时间、水温影响初级生产力时空变化…     

围隔生态系内不同粒级浮游植物群落变化研究

通过现场围隔实验,模拟赤潮发生过程,研究了种群不同生长阶段中不同粒级浮游植物种群的变化情况。结果表明,添加营养盐能有效促进浮游植物的生长,东海原甲藻围隔（M1）和自然水体围隔（M2）中浮游植物分别于第7天和第4天出现生长高峰,叶绿素a最大值分别为112．79mg／m和235．60mg/m。微型浮游植物与微微型浮游植物存在竞争,微型对微微型生长的抑制作用：M2〉M1。在营养盐丰富时,硅藻的增殖速率比东海原甲藻快,达到高峰期时间短,消亡也快。硅的减少促进硅藻水华的消亡。     

南沙群岛海域营养盐分布的研究

海洋中的营养盐是海洋浮游植物生长所必需的物质基础。营养盐、光照和温度是初级生产力的主要影响因素。海水中不同的营养组成和浓度比，不但会影响生物生产力，同时会对浮游植物的群落结构产生调节作用，影响着海洋生态系统的结构。因此，作为了解海洋生态系统生产过程的关键过程，海洋中的营养盐状况和循环研究，越来越得到生态学家的重视。诸多的研究表明，海洋中影响浮游植物生长的限制因子一般为Ｎ或Ｐ ,在中国沿海则主要是Ｐ的限制［１］。南沙群岛海域位于南海的南部，作为典型的热带海区，其营养盐状况与我国的温带地区是不同的。作…     

胶州湾浮游植物初级生产力粒级结构及固碳能力研究

根据2006年3月-2007年2月逐月对胶州湾浮游植物分粒级初级生产力的调查研究,分析了该海湾初级生产力的季节变化和空间分布、粒级结构特征以及碳流途径,计算了胶州湾浮游植物光合作用固碳量以及其对富营养化物质氮、磷的净化能力.结果表明:胶州湾的初级生产力平均为408.8 mgC*m-2d-1,存在明显的季节差异和空间分布的不均匀性;微微型浮游植物(Picophytoplankton)对总初级生产的贡献率最高(42.14%),小型浮游植物(Microphytoplankton)和微型浮游植物(Nanophytoplankton)贡献率相当(分别为27.81%和30.03%);浮游植物光合作用固定的碳超过50%通过微食物环再向高营养级传递并入经典食物链,微食物环在胶州湾生态系统碳循环中具有重要作用;胶州湾海域每年通过浮游植物光合作用固碳量为52 809.1 tC,按照Redfield比值(C∶N∶P=106∶16∶1)每年吸收N和P的量值分别为9 299.7 t和1 287.0 t,浮游植物对大气CO2的吸收及对富营养化物质的净化均具有重要作用.     

珠江口浮游植物叶绿素a和初级生产力的季节变化及其影响因素

基于2014—2015年4个季节的现场调查数据,系统阐述了珠江口水域浮游植物叶绿素a和初级生产力的空间分布和季节特征,并结合环境因子进行了分析。结果表明:研究水域表层年平均叶绿素a浓度和初级生产力分别为3.77mg·m~(–3)和27.86mg C·m~(–3)·h~(–1),季节变化均为春季夏季秋季冬季。径流量是珠江口浮游植物空间分布的主要驱动因素,并且浮游植物的旺发与河口盐度锋面的位置密切相关。径流较小的季节,由于珠江口外营养盐浓度较低,叶绿素a浓度高值区出现在内伶仃洋水域;随着径流量的增加,叶绿素a浓度高值区随盐度锋面向珠江口外移动,而口门附近浮游植物生长受光限制和径流稀释影响并未出现高值。初级生产力的空间分布趋势与浮游植物叶绿素a相似,二者之间存在显著的正相关关系。研究还表明:夏季,珠江口外由于浮游植物旺发消耗了大量营养盐,磷酸盐浓度被耗尽使其成为浮游植物生长的限制因子;冬季,光限制和低温可能是造成浮游植物初级生产力较低的原因。与以往研究结果对比,珠江口初级生产力处于中间水平,浮游植物碳同化系数年平均值为7.51mg C·(mg Chl a)~(–1)·h~(–1),河口固碳水平为261.52g C·m~(–2)·y~(–1)。     

长江口理化因子影响初级生产力的探索Ⅱ.磷不是长江口浮游植物生长的限制因子

1985年8月至1986年8月在长江口及其附近海域的50个大面观测站进行了磷酸盐和初级生产力逐月调查。通过分析磷酸盐的水平分布特征,发现长江口海域的磷酸盐浓度没有明显的季节变化,几乎不受长江流量变化的影响,因此认为,长江输送磷酸盐浓度不能由丰水期与枯水期决定;磷酸盐浓度与初级生产力的断面分布和时间变化的分析表明,磷酸盐浓度并不一定离岸越远越低,也没有周期性的季节变化;初级生产力的值几乎不受磷酸盐浓度变化的影响。根据营养盐限制的判断方法和法则,在长江口及其附近海域,磷并不是浮游植物生长的限制因子,仅靠氮磷比值来得到磷限制或氮限制的结论是不完善的。     

Variability of nutrients and phytoplankton primary production in a shallow macrotidal coastal ecosystem (Arcachon Bay,France)

Seasonal and spatial variations of phytoplankton primary production were studied using a high frequency sampling strategy in the external (ENW) and internal (INW) part of Arcachon Bay, during 2002 and 2003. In order to better assess the availability of nutrients and their relationship with phytoplankton primary production, nutrient variability was studied in relation to environmental conditions and phytoplankton production. During winter, when primary production rates were the lowest, nutrient concentrations were maximal but did not show excessive levels compared to highly urbanised areas. Seasonal and spatial variations of nutrient concentrations (especially DIN-nitrate + nitrite + ammonium- and Si) were largely influenced by Leyre River loads coupled with high tidal exchange with the Atlantic Ocean creating a nutrient gradient between the INW and ENW. By February, diatom growth leads to an early severe nutrient depletion in the entire bay. Examination of nutrient ratios showed that the potential limiting nutrient during spring was P in 2003, and Si in 2002. During summer 2003, N and Si concentrations reached their lowest values, and nutrient ratios revealed a N-deficient environment, more pronounced in the INW. The high Si:N ratios during this period might be explained by (1) important N-uptake by all autotroph communities and (2) benthic-pelagic coupling with high Si regeneration. This study shows that nutrient levels in Arcachon Bay seem to play an important role in the control of phytoplankton primary production rates during the productive period and explain their spatial, seasonal and inter-annual variability. Our estimates of annual integrated phytoplankton primary production (103 g C m⁻² y⁻¹) place this bay within the low to moderate phytoplankton primary production systems.     

渤黄海营养盐结构及其潜在限制作用的时空分布

根据2006-2007年4个季节的现场调查资料,分析探讨了渤海和黄海营养盐结构分布变化特征及其对浮游植物生长的潜在的限制状况.结果表明,渤黄海水体 Si/N/P 比值均偏离 Redfield 比值,季节变化明显;春夏冬季 N/P和 Si/P比值由近岸向远岸海域递减,高值区主要分布在黄河口、鸭绿江口及苏北近岸,秋季上层水体N/P和Si/P比值的分布趋势有所不同,高值区主要分布在南黄海的中部海域.受陆源输入的影响,近岸特别是河口区 N/P和 Si/P比值均较高,温跃层的生消变化和生物活动调控着黄海中部海域营养盐结构的变化.渤黄海浮游植物生长主要受P的潜在限制,部分季节受N、Si的潜在限制;营养盐限制状况存在着明显的时空变化及不同营养盐的同时或交替限制的现象.     

Environmental control of short-term variation in the plankton community of inner Tokyo Bay, Japan

Water temperature, salinity, nutrient concentrations and the composition of the plankton community were recorded at three stations in inner Tokyo Bay over a period of 328 days (from June 8, 1995 to April 30, 1996) with a nominal sampling frequency of once per day. Inspection of the results revealed that the data could be divided into two blocs as an aid to analysis: the period from June to October was characterized by the development of stratification of temperature and salinity (stratification period), and November to March was characterized by uniform temperature and salinity in the water column due to vertical mixing (mixing period). Oxygen-depleted water forms in the bottom layer during the stratification period, but vertical mixing of the water column, due to changing wind and rainfall conditions caused by passing weather fronts, results in the breakdown of the oxygen-depleted water mass. Nutrient loads are high in the surface water due to the freshwater supply, but occasional pulses of primary production cause a depletion of phosphate in the surface water, suggesting that the phosphorus becomes a limiting nutrient for phytoplankton growth in this period. Several short-term peaks of plankton abundance (blooms) occurred as responses to temporal changes in water quality from June to November, with consequent species succession. Significant fluctuations in the densities of the diatom Skeletonema costatum and several species of ciliates corresponded to the daily changes in the physical and chemical characteristics of the coastal environment. During the mixing period, when water temperature and solar radiation decreased, there were no short-term variations in water quality and although nutrient concentrations gradually increased from November to February, primary production remained low. This study shows that the short-term dynamics of the phytoplankton community are closely coupled to fluctuations in environmental forcing, and that the degree of coupling is stronger during periods when solar radiation is greater. The results provide a novel typological understanding of seasonal plankton dynamics in a shallow, eutrophicated marine embayment, and suggest how such systems may be treated in simulation modeling.     

The impact of mesoscale eddies on plankton dynamics in the upper ocean

A coupled QuasiGeostrophic mixed-layer ECOsystem model (QGECO) is used to investigate the impact of the underlying mesoscale eddy field on the spatial and temporal scales of biological production and on overall rates of primary productivity. The model exhibits temporal trends in the biological and physical fields similar to those observed in the North Atlantic; i.e. the mixed layer shallows in spring causing a rapid increase in phytoplankton concentrations and a corresponding decline in nutrient levels. Heterogeneity is produced in the mixed layer through Ekman pumping velocities resulting from the interaction of windstress and surface currents. This variability impacts on biological production in two ways. Firstly, spatial variations in the depth of the mixed layer affect the photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) availability and hence production rates, and secondly, eddy enhanced exchange between the surface water and those at depth bring additional nutrients into the euphotic zone. These processes result in significant spatial and temporal heterogeneity in the ecosystem distributions.Investigation of the spatial heterogeneity of the biological system finds variability to be significantly greater than that of the mixed layer. The relationship between the eddy field and the ecosystem is investigated. The structure and correlation of the biogeochernical fields change with time. The biological fields are found to have a shorter horizontal scale, but whiter spectrum than the underlying eddy field.Overwinter conditions are found to have a profound effect on the variability, size and timing of the following spring bloom event. Variations in the nitrate levels are primarily responsible for the variability in the biological system in the first year. In subsequent years the variation in the overwintering population is found to be dominant.     

基于FerryBox的渤海海峡水质低成本长期自动监测

FerryBox是一套全自动、实时的水生生态监测系统,具有多参数、低维护、低成本、监测覆盖范围广、可持续性强等诸多优点。2015年10月~2016年7月,作者通过将其安装在一条频繁返于烟台-大连之间的货船上,实现了10个月的渤海海峡水质低成本长期自动监测。监测结果表明,渤海海峡水环境因子在时空分布上存在显著的南北差异,秋季海峡南部海域的表层浊度及pH均高于中部及北部海域;冬季海峡北部海域的表层温度、盐度和浊度均大于南部海域;进入春季以后海峡中南部海域为表层叶绿素a浓度高值区。季风、黄海暖流以及渤海环流等因素是造成渤海海峡水环境因子南北差异的主要原因。春、夏季渤海海峡营养盐监测结果表明,渤海海峡营养盐的时空分布具有明显的季节性和区域性特征,在时间变化上整体呈现初春和夏末较高,在空间分布上整体呈现海峡两侧高于海峡中部。海底冷水团颗粒物的分解、藻类繁殖、地表径流以及渤海环流等,是影响渤海海峡春、夏季营养盐时空分布的重要因素。春季渤海海峡浮游生物生长受硅和磷的双重限制,夏季主要受磷限制。     

Simulations of Annual Cycle of Phytoplankton Production and the Utilization of Nitrogen in the Yellow Sea

A nutrient dynamic model coupled with a 3D physical model has been developed to study the annual cycle of phytoplankton production in the Yellow Sea. The biological model involves interactions between inorganic nitrogen (nitrate and ammonium), phosphate and phytoplankton biomass. The model successfully reproduces the main features of phytoplankton-nutrient variation and dynamics of production. 1. The well-mixed coastal water is characterized by high primary production, as well as high new production. 2. In summer, the convergence of tidal front is an important hydrodynamic process, which contributes to high biomass at frontal areas. 3. The evolution of phytoplankton blooms and thermocline in the central region demonstrate that mixing is a dominant factor to the production in the Yellow Sea. In this simulation, nitrate- and ammonium-based productions are estimated regionally and temporally. The northern Yellow Sea is one of the highly ranked regions in the Yellow Sea for the capability of fixing carbon and nitrogen. The annual averaged f-ratio of 0.37 indicates that regenerated production prevails over the Yellow Sea. The result also shows that phosphate is the major nutrient, limiting phytoplankton growth throughout the year and it can be an indicator to predict the bloom magnitude. Finally, the relative roles of external nutrient sources have been evaluated, and benthic fluxes might play a significant role in compensating 54.6% of new nitrogen for new production consumption.     

Along-coast shifts of plankton blooms driven by riverine inputs of nutrients and fresh water onto the coastal shelf: a model simulation

Rivers transport nutrients and suspended sediment matter (SSM) as well as fresh water from land to coastal regions, where the biological productivity is high. In the coastal area, the buoyancy of fresh water leads to the formation of horizontal anticyclonic gyres and vertical circulations, which affect the variation of biological production such as plankton blooms. However, the primary production caused by the 3-D dynamics have not been quantitatively discussed, and observations can hardly capture the daily temporal variations of phytoplankton blooms. We developed an ocean general circulation model including a simple ecosystem model, to investigate the 3-D and temporal changes in phytoplankton blooms caused by riverine input such as flooding. The distribution patterns of nutrients and phytoplankton differ significantly from that of fresh water. The phytoplankton maxima shift from the downstream (right-hand side of the river mouth) to the upstream regions (left-hand side of the river mouth). The shift that occurs is categorized by the different nitrate origins: (1) river-originated nitrate is dominant in the downstream region; (2) subsurface-originated nitrate is dominant in the upstream region, and is transported by upwelling associated with vertical circulation and horizontal anticyclonic gyre; and (3) regenerated nitrate is dominant in the upstream region. The total primary production in phytoplankton blooms is maintained not only by river-originated nitrate but also by subsurface-originated nitrate that is 1.5 times larger than the river-originated. Several case studies (e.g., including SSM) were conducted in this study.
