Seasonal Variability of Near-Surface Heat Budget of Selected Oceanic Areas in the North Tropical Indian Ocean

The results obtained from an Ocean General Circulation Model (OGCM), the Modular Ocean Model 2.2, forced with the National Center for Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research reanalysis data, and observational data have been utilized to document the climatological seasonal cycle of the upper ocean response in the Tropical Indian Ocean. We address the various roles played by the net surface heat flux and the local and remote ocean dynamics for the seasonal variation of near-surface heat budget in the Tropical Indian Ocean. The investigation is based in seven selected boxes in the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal and the Equatorial Indian Ocean. The changes of basin-wide heat budget of ocean process in the Arabian Sea and the Western Equatorial Indian Ocean show an annual cycle, whereas those in the Bay of Bengal and the Eastern Equatorial Indian Ocean show a semi-annual cycle. The time tendency of heat budget in the Arabian Sea depends on both the net surface heat flux and ocean dynamics while on the other hand, that in the Bay of Bengal depends mainly on the net surface flux. However, it has been found that the changes of heat budget are very different between western and eastern regional sea areas in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal, respectively. This difference depends on seasonal variations of the different local wind forcing and the different ocean dynamics associated with ocean eddies and Kelvin and Rossby waves in each regional sea areas. We also discuss the comparison and the connection for the seasonal variation of near-surface heat budget among their regional sea areas.

把海洋开发作为跨世纪的国家战略

２１世纪将是全面开发利用海洋的时代，许多沿海国家将把海洋开发作为国家战略。我国是世界上人口最多的国家，陆地资源人均占有量少，更应该重视开发海洋，建设临海工业带，发展海洋农牧化，开发建设海运网络等。发展海洋经济必须走科技兴海之路，抓科技储备，改造传统产业，发展新兴产业，不断提高海洋开发生产力水平。     

水下自航式海洋观测平台技术发展研究

水下自航式海洋观测平台是一种新型海洋观测平台，主要用于无人、大范围、长时间水下环境监测，包括物理学参数、海洋地质学和地球物理学参数，海洋化学参数、海洋生物学参数及海洋工程方面的现场接近观测。其特点是：成本低，环境适应性强，可冲破人工潜水极限而进入现场进行接近观测，免除了ROV需要水面支援母船的累赘，减少作业经费，体积小，使用方便，便于布放回收；可根据水声信号摇控或预置程序控制，按要求进行相关项目观测；有自主动力，水下运行时间相对较长，有源噪声低，可进行隐弊观测，正是基于以上的优点，近几年颇得海洋环境监测和海军方面的青睐，本文介绍了国际上水下自动观测平台的发展历史和现状，提出了我国开展研究水下自动观测平台的重要性及研究的面容。

天然热释光技术在海洋油气田勘查中的应用

沉积物热释光能有效地反映海洋环境下深部油气田引起的微弱放射性异常。热释光在不同的测试粒级、不同的岩性中的丰度不同，结果为粗粒级＞细粒级、砂岩＞粉砂质砂岩＞泥质粉砂岩＞泥岩。热释光也与部分金属元素含量有关，Ti、Ba、Zn、Fe^3 /Fe^2 与热释光呈正相关关系。热释光与烃类也呈较强的正相关性。不同采用深度热释光测量结果表明，热释光剂量随沉积物的沉积深度和沉积时间的增加而增加，深层样的热释光对油气藏的指示效果更好。

Chemical Fluxes of Asian Rivers into Oceans and their Controlling Factors

Chemical fluxes of Asian rivers into oceans bear different regional variations. Three zones are characteristic of distinct dissolved sediment loads and yields and ionic concentration.Rivers into oceans in China play an important role in Asia because of their different chemical fluxes, among which those draining the Loess Plateau have high ionic concentration, low water discharges and dissolved sediment loads and yields.Climate, vegetation, soil and strata lithology, chemical weathering intensity and tectonic activity dominate chemical fluxes of Asian rivers into oceans, and different factors have different effects on the chemical fluxes of separate regional rivers. Rising of the Tibet Plateau also exerts an important influence on chemical compositions of rivers originating from it.     

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.
