黄条鰤贮藏挥发性化合物的研究

用气相色谱仪和气—质联机等方法对黄条鱼师的腐败挥发性化合物进行了定性和定量分析。这将有利于对黄条做一步的生化性质分析和制定其鲜品的国家标准。样品在２５℃贮藏５ｄ期间，测定了某些化学指标。结果表明在贮藏１ｄ后，鱼肉变腐臭，挥发性碱基化合物三甲胺和二甲基在贮藏中增加。在５ｄ的贮藏期间发现的挥发性有机酸包括乙酸、丙酸、丁酸、异丁酸、戊酸、异成酸，并且它们的含量不断增加，检测出脂肪氧化产物和含硫化合物，正己醛、３—辛酮、３，５—丰二烯—２—酮，２—壬酮辛烯—３—醇，二甲基三硫化物、１Ｈ—吲哚等都是黄条腐败时产生的重要挥发性化合物。应指出的是，２—甲基丁醇、庚醇、苯酚、辛烯—３—醇己醛是黄条中所特有的化合物，其余化合物与其它鱼类的挥发性化合物几乎相近。

Effects of salinity downshock on dimethylsulfide production

During time-series observations in Sagami Bay, Japan, the concentration of dissolved dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP_d), a precursor of dimethylsulfide (DMS), was negatively correlated with salinity. In the laboratory, low-salinity shock reduced DMS production rates of the natural bacterial community and induced rapid DMSP release from a dinophyte, Heterocapsa triquetra, suggesting that low-salinity shock reduced DMSP_d consumption but enhanced DMSP_d production, which agrees with the negative correlation between DMSP_d and salinity observed in Sagami bay. In addition, low-salinity shock did not affect DMSP lyase activity of H. triquetra. Low-salinity shock would increase the contribution from algae in DMS production, leading to an increase in potential DMS productivity in the environment.     

东海陆架区毛颚动物的分布

毛颚动物是浮游动物中的重要类群,是典型的海洋浮游动物(仅Spadella属的种类生活于浅海岩石或海藻之间)。它的分布遍及世界海洋。在数量上也相当可观,根据1976年我们在东海两次采集的资料，夏、秋季它在浮游动物总生物量中的比例可达40%。 毛颚类是肉食性浮游动物中的饕餮者,不仅大量消耗桡足类,有时也能吞噬个体较小的燐虾、端足类和仔稚鱼等。它的数量高峰往往出现在其他草食性浮游动物的数量高峰之后。然而,它本身又是一些鱼类和肉食性浮游动物的食料。可见它在海洋食物网中所处地位的重要。在水域生产カ研究中,毛颚类的研究是了解某一海区生态转换效率的一项重要内容。 许多毛颚类是水团或海流的良好标志,例如,强壮箭虫(Sagitta crassa)可以作为黄海水团和日本内海低盐水的指标种,秀箭虫(Sagitta elegans)可以作为亲潮和里门寒流的指标种,锯齿箭虫(Sagitta serratodentata)在大西洋可以作为湾流的指标种,而多变箭虫(Sagitta decipiens)在印度西岸可以作为上升流的指标。又如人们所熟知的，Russell曾根据毛箭虫(Sagitta setosa)和秀箭虫的分布来推断北海低盐水团和天西洋高盐水团在英吉利海峡的相互推移和消长的情况。这类例子很多,兹不赘述。总之,毛颚类作为海流或水团的指标已日益受到各国海洋学工作者的重视。 本文根据东海陆架区综合考查1976年6-7月及8-9月,在127°E以西,北起32°N,南至26°30′N(6-7月在黄海南部增加一斜断面),用大型浮游生物网自底到表垂直拖网样品85份加以分析,对调查期间此海域内毛颚动物的分布作一概述。

Algorithm for HF radar vector current measurements

A new algorithm is proposed, called the stream function method (SFM) for producing vector current maps from radial data measured by dual-site high frequency surface wave radar (HFSWR). In SFM, a scalar stream function is constructed under some oceanographic assumptions. The function describes the two-dimensional (2-D) ocean surface water motion and is used to obtain the distribution of vector currents. The performance of SFM is evaluated using simulated radial data, which demonstrates that SFM has advantages over typical vectorial combination methods (VCM) both in error acceptance and robustness, and excels another method based on least-squares fitting (LSF) in recovering the complicated current models. Furthermore, SFM is capable of providing the total currents based on radials from single-site radar. We also test the assumptions of horizontal non-divergence in the simulation. The new algorithm is applied to the field experiment data of Wuhan University’s ocean state measuring and analyzing radar (OSMAR), collected in the coastal East China Sea during April 11–17, 2004. Quantitative comparisons are given between radar results by three current algorithms and in-situ current meter measurements. Preliminary analysis of the vertical current shear is given based on the current meter measurements.     

Tectonic core of a sedimentary drift: a potential ridge propagation feature beneath the Blake Outer Ridge

The Blake Outer Ridge is a 480–kilometer long linear sedimentary drift ridge striking perpendicular to the North American coastline. By modeling free-air gravity anomalies we tested for the presence of a crustal feature that may control the location and orientation of the Blake Outer Ridge. Most of our crustal density models that match observed gravity anomalies require an increase in oceanic crustal thickness of 1–3 km on the southwest side of the Blake Outer Ridge relative to the northeast side. Most of these models also require 1–4 km of crustal thinning in zone 20–30 km southwest of the crest of the Blake Outer Ridge. Although these features are consistent with the structure of oceanic fracture zones, the Blake Outer Ridge is not parallel to adjacent known fracture zones. Magnetic anomalies suggest that the ocean crust beneath this feature formed during a period of mid-ocean ridge reorganization, and that the Blake Outer Ridge may be built upon the bathymetric expression of an oblique extensional feature associated with ridge propagation. It is likely that the orientation of this trough acted as a catalyst for sediment deposition with the start of the Western Boundary Undercurrent in the mid-Oligocene.     

Jellyfish patch formation investigated by aerial photography and drifter experiment

Jellyfish patch formation is investigated by conducting a drifter experiment combined with aerial photography of a sustained patch of the moon jellyfish in Hokezu Bay, Japan. Jellyfish patches are aggregations of individuals that are caused by a combination of swimming (active influence) and advection by currents (passive influence). The drifter experiment involved the injection of 49 drifters around a distinct surface patch of jellyfish within an area of approximately 300 m × 300 m. The drifters’ motion, caused only by the passive influence, was recorded in a series of 38 aerial photographs taken over approximately 1 h. The ambient uniform current field larger than the patch scale was estimated from the movement of the centroid position of drifters, while the distribution of horizontal divergence and relative vorticity around the patch was estimated from the time-derivative in areas of triangles formed by the drifters. The centroid positions of both drifters and patches moved stably toward the bay head at different speeds. The difference vector between the patch and drifter centroids was directed to the sun, and was opposite to the ambient current. The distributions of vorticity and divergence around patches exhibited inhomogeneity within the patch scale, and the drifters in this nonuniform current field aggregated near the convergence area within 1 h. The results suggest that horizontal patch formation is predominantly influenced by passive factors at the surface of Hokezu Bay. Furthermore, the upward swimming against downwelling may make sustained patch in surface layer.
