Problems with biogenic silica measurement in marginal seas

Surface sediment samples from the Bohai, Yellow Sea, and the Pacific were used to assess biogenic silica (BSi) content and to study uncertainties in BSi measurements. The contents of BSi in the Bohai and Yellow Sea are all less than 1%. The dissolution of BSi in sediments from the Bohai and Yellow Sea is very important to maintain high levels of silicate in the water column. The non-biogenic silica from clay minerals has an obvious effect on BSi of sediment samples in the Bohai and Yellow Sea with low BSi and high clay minerals. The solid to solution ratio was found to have a great influence on BSi measurement, which can induce uncertainties up to 75%. The effect of loss by sorption and centrifugation is negligible. Interlaboratory comparison of techniques for BSi measurement by the wet alkaline extraction technique of Mortlock and Froelich [Deep-Sea Res. 36 (1989) 1415-1426] with clay correction was suggested to give no significant differences. However, differences in sediment compositions and reagent to sample ratio may limit the application of the wet alkaline extraction method.     

黄河三角洲河道沉积规律研究Ⅱ. 建林边滩沉积作用机理

通过对建林边滩沉积物粒度分布、粒度参数及水体流变性质的分析，阐述了黄河三角洲上河道水流属于牵引流范畴，与低含沙水流无本质上的差别，并探讨沉积物搬运和沉积的基本特征。     

东海北部黑潮区浮游动物的多样性研究

由于浮游动物在海洋生态系统中处于主导地位及其对生物地球化学循环和全球变化的重要影响,浮游动物与环境间相互作用的研究已成为现代海洋生态学研究的一个核心问题[1].     

白沙口海岸带泥沙运动和地貌演变

近几十年来，许多沿海国家都开展了大规模的海岸带调查工作，并对海岸带的泥沙运动和地貌演变的某些规律进行了深人研究。但是，对于有潮海滩不同地貌部位上的泥沙运动特征及其控制因素，以及不同地貌部位上，反映泥沙群体运动结果的堆积体运动规律等的现场调查，至今报道不多。实际上，有潮海滩并非单调一致，海滩不同地貌部位上的泥沙运动规律和地貌发育规律，都有极大的、甚至本质上的差异。研究这些差异性，对于我们深入了解海岸带泥沙运动和地貌演变的规律，是有所裨益的。 白沙口位于山东半岛南岸，五垒岛湾之西(见图1) ，湾口朝南，面对黄海。湾内堆积地貌发育。一条巨大的湾口沙咀，自常家庄南岬角向西延伸，逼近海阳所南部的角滩。沙咀的北面为泻湖，白沙滩河注入其中。所谓白沙口，实指泻湖的出口，也为一潮汐通道。由于陆源物质长期倾泻入海，出口处岸线呈扇形向海突出，形成白沙口潮汐三角洲。退潮后，三角洲上一片白沙，沙咀、沙洲等堆积地貌非常发育。它们在海浪、潮流，和河流径流等各种动力因素的交互作用下，活动性很强，其位置变化无常，给航运和水工建筑等带来许多困难。1971-1974年，中国科学院海洋研究所和山东省水文总站协作，在本区进行了系统调查，曾写了专门调查报告。本文试图根据其中的部分现场观测资料，对本区海岸带泥沙运动和地貌演变的一般特征、差异性，及其与动力因素之间的关系等问题进行初步探讨。     

Dynamics and control of a towed underwater vehicle system, part I: model development

Autonomous vehicles are being developed to replace the conventional, manned surface vehicles that tow mine hunting towed platforms. While a wide body of work exists that describes numerical models of towed systems, they usually include relatively simple models of the towed bodies and neglect the dynamics of the towing vehicle. For systems in which the mass of the towing vehicle is comparable to that of the towed vehicle, it becomes important to consider the dynamics of both vehicles. In this work, we describe the development of a numerical model that accurately captures the dynamics of these new mine hunting systems. We use a lumped mass approximation for the towcable and couple this model to non-linear numerical models of an autonomous surface vehicle and an actively controlled towfish. Within the dynamics models of the two vehicles, we include non-linear controllers to allow accurate maneuvering of the towed system.     

Simple determination of dimethylsulfide (DMS) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) using solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) is a simple, sensitive and less destructive method for the determination of dimethylsulfide (DMS) in seawater. Combined with detection by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), the method had sufficient sensitivity (minimum detectable concentration of DMS was 0.05 nM), and practical levels of reproducibility (relative standard deviation ≤7%) and linearity (r ² > 0.995) over a wide concentration range (0.5 to 910 nM). The protocol developed was applied to a Sagami Bay water sample to determine concentrations of DMS and DMSP, and in situ DMSP-lyase activity.     

黄海多毛类裂虫科小型种的初步研究

Determination of nutrient salts by automatic methods both in seawater and brackish water: the phosphate blank

The main inconvenience in determining nutrients in seawater by automatic methods is simply solved: the preparation of a suitable blank which corrects the effect of the refractive index change on the recorded signal. Two procedures are proposed, one physical (a simple equation to estimate the effect) and the other chemical (removal of the dissolved phosphorus with ferric hydroxide).     

甲醛前处理对提取海带褐藻胶质与量的影响

褐藻胶(Na-alginate)工业在国外已有半个多世纪的历史,其工艺流程及生产设备等都日趋标准化,产品的种类及其在工业上的用途也走向多样化。我国在五十年代初期曾呈奎和纪明侯就用野生的马尾藻作为原料进行了褐藻胶的提取研究,井确立了褐藻胶的生产工艺,从而诞生了我国的褐藻胶工业。六十年代以来,由于海带的大量人工栽培，褐藻胶生产便采用海带作为原料,由此,这个新兴工业迅猛发展。目前,中国的褐藻胶生产的规模和产量在世界上已名列前矛,除了主产品褐藻胶以外,还同时生产甘露醇、碘等联产品。但这个工业还存在不少问题,特別是褐藻胶的粘度、透明度及色泽等质量指标是人们极为关切的问题。本文拟就海藻原料的前处理工艺对胶的质量和产量的影响做一系统的研究。
