Abstract

Surface bio-optical constituents (Chl-a, light-absorption coefficient of phytoplankton (aph (443)), detritus (ad(443)), coloured dissolved organic matter (aCDOM(443))), and hydrographic variables were studied across the fronts along 57.5°E during 2011, 2013 and 2015 in the Indian sector of Southern Ocean to understand their interannual variability and phytoplankton pigment package effect. Latitudinal increases of Chl-a, aph(443), and aCDOM(443) were observed in 2011 and 2013. Mean Chl-a was higher in 2013 than in 2015 and 2011. The Chl-a specific absorption (a*ph(443)) latitudinally decreased implying ‘pigment package effect’ with increasing latitude. Interannually increase of aph blue (443)/red (675) ratio suggested higher non-photosynthetic absorption during 2013 and 2015 than in 2011. The relative contributions of bio-optical constituents to total absorption (at) showed interannual decrease in aph(443) and increase in aCDOM(443) and ad(443) inferring phytoplankton growth and decay phases. The robust aph(443)-Chl-a relationship during 2011 was used to derive aph(443) for other years, which holds good for in situ and satellite-derived counterparts. aCDOM(443) positively correlated with Chl-a and negatively with CDOM-spectral slope (S300-500), suggesting autochthonous sources. Satellite-retrieved Chl-a, aph(443) showed significant correlation (p < 0.001) with in situ data. This study provides baseline bio-optical data for understanding phytoplankton size-class, and improvement of bio-optical algorithms in this relatively inaccessible polar region.

南半球夏季印度洋印度洋锋区表面生物光学特征的年际变化
研究了2011年、2013年和2015年南大洋印度板块沿57.5°E的锋面表面生物光学成分(Chl-a)、浮游植物吸光系数(aph(443))、腐质(ad(443))、有色溶解有机质(aCDOM(443))和水文变量,以了解它们的年际变化和浮游植物色素包效应。2011年和2013年,Chl-a、aph(443)和aCDOM(443)在纬度上呈上升趋势。2013年平均Chl-a高于2015年和2011年。随着纬度的增加,Chl-a比吸收率(a*ph(443))呈纬度下降趋势,表明存在“色素包效应”。光谱蓝(443)/红(675)比值的年际增加表明2013年和2015年非光合吸收高于2011年。生物光学组分对总吸收的相对贡献(at)显示出aph(443)的年际递减,而aCDOM(443)和ad(443)的年际递增,可推断浮游植物的生长和腐烂阶段。2011年稳健的aph(443)-Chl-a关系用于推导其他年份的aph(443),这适用于原位和卫星衍生的对应。aCDOM(443)与Chl-a呈正相关,与cdom -光谱斜率(S300-500)呈负相关,表明其为天然源。卫星反演Chl-a、aph(443)呈显著相关(p <0.001)。该研究为了解浮游植物的大小类别和改进这一相对难以进入的极地地区的生物光学算法提供了基线生物光学数据。

期刊介绍: Polar Science is an international, peer-reviewed quarterly journal. It is dedicated to publishing original research articles for sciences relating to the polar regions of the Earth and other planets. Polar Science aims to cover 15 disciplines which are listed below; they cover most aspects of physical sciences, geosciences and life sciences, together with engineering and social sciences. Articles should attract the interest of broad polar science communities, and not be limited to the interests of those who work under specific research subjects. Polar Science also has an Open Archive whereby published articles are made freely available from ScienceDirect after an embargo period of 24 months from the date of publication. - Space and upper atmosphere physics - Atmospheric science/climatology - Glaciology - Oceanography/sea ice studies - Geology/petrology - Solid earth geophysics/seismology - Marine Earth science - Geomorphology/Cenozoic-Quaternary geology - Meteoritics - Terrestrial biology - Marine biology - Animal ecology - Environment - Polar Engineering - Humanities and social sciences.
