厦门湾浮游生物量和营养盐含量时空分布的数值模拟研究

初步构建了一个以浮游植物（P）、浮游动物（Z）和营养盐（N,包括无机氮和活性磷酸盐）为生态变量的NPZ简单生态模型,并通过与POM三维水动力模型的耦合,建立了三维浮游生态动力学模型,开展了厦门湾全海域三维浮游生态系统时空变化的模拟研究.结果显示,厦门海域浮游动植物有明显的季节变化,春、夏季生物量最高,秋、冬季较低,但不同的海区达到峰值的季节并不相同;活性磷酸盐含量冬季最高,春季最低,与浮游植物量值有较明显的反位相关系,表明厦门湾海域浮游植物的生长主要受活性磷酸盐含量限制.模拟结果符合历史观测特征,且模拟值与实测值量级比较吻合,因此所建立的三维浮游生态动力学模型可用于描述厦门湾海域浮游生态的时空变化特征.

Ecological thresholds of phytoplankton community across environmental gradients in the harmful algal blooms-frequently-occurring,subtropical coastal waters,East China Sea

Phytoplankton communities can response immediately and directly to environmental changes,and thus have been applied as reliable biotic indicators in aquatic systems.This study provided insights into the relationships concerning ecological thresholds of phytoplankton communities and individual taxon in response to environmental changes in coastal waters of northern Zhejiang Province,East China Sea.Results demonstrated that there existed seasonal variations of phytoplankton community ecological thresholds of which spring being higher than those in summer.As for individual species,Prorocentrum donghaiense and Noctiluca scintillans were identified as the most tolerant and sensitive indicator species in spring and summer,respectively.They exhibited strong indications in response to environmental changes.These findings highlighted that phytoplankton community structure in this region was stable when environmental gradients were below the thresholds of sensitive species,whereas potential harmful algal blooms may occur when environmental gradients exceeded the thresholds of tolerant species.     

The effects of wind,phytoplankton and density discontinuities upon ammonia distributions in Liverpool Bay

Spatial and temporal changes in distributions of ammonia and of physical and biological characteristics observed in Liverpool Bay during a seasonal production cycle are presented. Ammonia concentrations did not conform to the well defined seasonal trend in levels of silicate and nitrate, this leading to a temporal variability in the relative contributions of nitrate and ammonia to the total inorganic nitrogen pool. It is shown that the gross changes in ammonia concentrations and distributions in Liverpool Bay may be related to the effects of three predominant factors, namely the effect of wind upon the surface residual circulation during winter, the development of the phytoplankton bloom during spring and the presence or absence of a marked discontinuity.     

The effects of tropical storm Dennis on coastal phytoplankton

The effects of tropical storm Dennis were documented in the coastal waters of South Carolina during August 1981. Phytoplankton photosynthesis vs. irradiance curves showed initial depression of the parameter a followed by three- to five-fold increase of both a and the asymptotic maximum rate of photosynthesis P_m^B. Productivity rates were depressed in most samples immediately after the storm. Surface samples at the inshore stations were around 50 mg C m^?3 h^?1 at saturating light intensities, while the offshore station rates were around 10 mg C m^?3 h^?1. After a 10-day lag these rates had increased to about 200 mg C m^?3 h^?1 inshore and 75 mg C m^?3 h^?1 offshore. These changes are thought to be primarily caused by changes in species composition. Some of the dominant diatom species changed and dinoflagellate species were introduced. No significant changes in nutrient concentrations were observed. Transient depressions of water temperature, salinity and light intensity may have contributed to the observed changes.     

Chlorophyll distributions in the Delaware estuary: Regulation by light-limitation

Phytoplankton chlorophyll concentrations in the Delaware estuary range over two orders of magnitude and display several maxima over the seasonal cycle. These maxima were found to be regulated both spatially and temporally by light availability. Both the spring chlorophyll maximum, which reaches 50–60 μg chlorophyll l^?1 during a Skeletonema costatum dominated bloom, and transient fall blooms (15–20 μg l^?1) are focused in mid-estuary. These blooms are regulated spatially by settling out of suspended sediment below the turbidity maximum and both spatially and temporally by physical factors (e.g. river flow) that cause vertical stratification in mid-estuary. In freshwater regions, chlorophyll concentrations display seasonal periodicity correlated with solar irradiance; summer chlorophyll concentrations average 30 μg l^?1. These freshwater and mid-estuarine biomass maxima may be correctly predicted using a steady-state light-limitation model. In contrast, summer chlorophyll concentrations in the lower estuary remain below 10 μg l^?1 and are not correctly modeled, despite minimum turbidity, and non-nutrient limiting conditions. These chlorophyll concentrations appear to be regulated by a combination of light availability and grazing.Although extremely high anthropogenic nutrient inputs in the freshwater region of the Delaware River provide non-limiting nutrient concentrations throughout the estuary, regulation of phytoplankton growth by light-limitation restricts chlorophyll concentrations below the nuisance levels found in many eutrophic systems.
