一次弱台风对叶绿素a浓度的强烈增强

Strong enhancement of chlorophyll a concentration by a weak typhoon

摘要:

近年来的研究表明,台风可显著提高海洋表层叶绿素a(chl a)浓度。对1997-2007年南海中部海域叶绿素a浓度进行了研究。只有一级(最小)台风Hagibis(2007年)对叶绿素a浓度有显着的影响。台风“海贝思”因其位置靠近赤道,具有较强的上升流潜势,其强迫时间(>82 h)远长于地转调整时间(~63 h)。较高的上升流速度和较长的强迫时间增加了混合层的深度,从而导致了强烈的浮游植物水华,占南海中部年总叶绿素a浓度的30%左右。这意味着,台风的强迫时间应该足够长,以建立一个强大的上升流,从而诱导显着的上层海洋附应。

英文摘要:

Recent studies demonstrate that chlorophyll a (chl a) concentrations in the surface ocean can be significantly enhanced due to typhoons. The present study investigated chl a concentrations in the middle of the South China Sea (SCS) from 1997-2007. Only the Category1 (minimal) Typhoon Hagibis (2007) had a notable effect on the chl a concentrations. Typhoon Hagibis had a strong upwelling potential due to its location near the equator, and the forcing time of the typhoon (>82 h) was much longer than the geostrophic adjustment time (~63 h). The higher upwelling velocity and the longer forcing time increased the depth of the mixed-layer, which consequently induced a strong phytoplankton bloom that accounted for about 30% of the total annual chl a concentration in the middle of the SCS. The implication is that the forcing time of a typhoon should be long enough to establish a strong upwelling and consequently for the induction of significant upper ocean responses.
