Abstract

Cyanobacterial blooms are a potential threat to human communities and ecosystems. Since the late 1980s, researchers have reported harmful cyanobacterial colonies in Patos Lagoon (PL), the largest coastal lagoon in South America. Most studies concerning harmful blooms in PL have focused on its biology and on its southernmost estuarine region, with little information about its displacement inside the lagoon and the influence of physical forces on its dynamics. This study uses satellite-derived information (normalized difference chlorophyll-a index – NDCI), river discharge data, and meteorological data (wind speed and direction, rainfall, and air temperature) to analyze two bloom episodes in PL, during the austral summer of 2019/2020, specifically in its larger, limnic portion. A 30-year meteorological time series was used to contrast the same summer period. Two remote sensing images from Sentinel-2 were taken of PL margins, near their central portion. The summer of 2019/2020 was drier when compared with the historical data, characterizing low river discharge. This environmental condition was coupled with high temperature, which implies thermal stratification in summer even at 2-m depth sites, which might have promoted cyanobacterial growth and accumulation inside PL. Moreover, weak winds (<<6 m s−1) seemed to accumulate cyanobacterial patches on the water surface, including after vertical mixing caused by strong winds (>6 m s−1). The NDCI values represented the two days of blooms, with higher values occurring under higher water temperatures and low wind speeds.
气象和潜在气候对帕托斯泻湖(巴西南部)高蓝藻生物量的影响:2019-2020年夏季的案例研究
蓝藻繁殖是对人类社区和生态系统的潜在威胁。自20世纪80年代末以来,研究人员报道了南美洲最大的沿海泻湖帕托斯泻湖(PL)中有害的蓝藻菌落。大多数关于PL有害藻华的研究都集中在其生物学和最南端的河口地区,很少有关于其在泻湖内的位移和物理力对其动力学的影响的信息。本研究利用卫星衍生信息(归一化叶绿素-a指数- NDCI)、河流流量数据和气象数据(风速和风向、降雨量和气温)分析了2019/2020年南部夏季PL的两次水华事件,特别是在其较大的湖泊部分。使用30年气象时间序列对同一夏季进行对比。哨兵2号的两张遥感图像拍摄了PL边缘,靠近它们的中心部分。与历史数据相比,2019/2020年夏季更干燥,河流流量低。这种环境条件与高温相结合,这意味着即使在2 m深度的地点,夏季也存在热分层,这可能促进了蓝藻在PL内的生长和积累。此外,弱风(6 m s−1)。NDCI值代表了两天的水华,在较高的水温和较低的风速下出现较高的值。
