After delineating these upwelling areas, this study is pioneering in deriving the upwelling probability off the Vietnam coast, pinpointing two significant upwelling hotspots. To deepen the understanding of the individual impacts of wind and sea surface height anomalies on monthly and spatial variations in upwelling probability and chlorophyll distribution, the Empirical Orthogonal Function method was employed to analyze this data set. The upwelling probability demonstrates a close relationship with wind and sea surface height anomalies, while chlorophyll concentration correlates with the strength of the southwesterly wind. The southwesterly wind, Ekman pumping, eddy dipole, and northeastward jet have been identified as key drivers of the formation and spatial variability of upwelling in summer, albeit with varying contributions to different parts of the coastal region. The distribution of upwelling probability correlates with chlorophyll variation off the northern Vietnam coast. High chlorophyll concentration off the southern Vietnam coast is primarily influenced by the southwesterly wind that carries the Mekong River plume eastward. Furthermore, two abnormal scenarios in upwelling and chlorophyll concentration during 2010 and 2018 were analyzed, attributed to the abnormal southwesterly monsoon and coastal circulation influenced by an El Niño event and a weak La Niña event with a positive Indian Ocean Dipole, respectively. This study elucidates the dynamic processes underlying the intricate chlorophyll distribution over the continental shelf, which is influenced by both the river plume and upwelling.</p>","PeriodicalId":54340,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142555479","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study primarily aimed to elucidate the interannual variability of NPP and its influencing factors in the BHS during the 2002–2021 period by synthesizing four widely-used global NPP models, namely the vertically generalized production model (VGPM), the Eppley-VGPM, the size-fractioned phytoplankton pigment absorption-based model (SABPM), and the carbon, absorption, and fluorescence euphotic-resolving model (CAFE). The multi-model average NPP showed significant interannual variation, with an increasing trend from 2002 to 2012 and a decreasing trend from 2012 to 2021. The concentration of DIN in the BHS was primarily affected by atmospheric nitrogen deposition. The structural equation model demonstrated that chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration, influenced by DIN concentration, had an important effect on NPP. In brief, atmospheric nitrogen deposition impacted the DIN concentration and thus controlled the (Chl-a) concentration and NPP change in the BHS.

Over the last three decades, abundant observational progress has been made in revealing the basic features of the LUC. However, the dynamics and thus successful modeling of the LUC remain unresolved. In this work, we conducted a high-resolution (3 km, 60 levels) numerical investigation of the WPO circulation using the China sea multi-scale ocean modeling system. We paid particular attention to the vertical mixing, aiming to reasonably resolve the LUC by modifying the vertical mixing parameterization. Based on physics reasoning and experiments of physically based modeling, we designed an adaptive mixing scheme (AMS), which used a Munk-like function in the thermocline for enhanced vertical mixing in the areas of small Richardson numbers. Using the AMS, we reproduced the two-layer WPO circulations well and captured the inshore component of the LUC consistent with observations. Furthermore, we studied the dynamics of the LUC by analyzing the momentum balance and found that the LUC is primarily maintained by baroclinic pressure gradient force due to strong thermocline tilting near the western boundary. Enhanced vertical mixing in this highly sheared region crucially provides sufficient geostrophic support to sustain the LUC. Also, nonlinearity and submesoscale motions contribute positively to the LUC. This work advances physical understanding of the current-undercurrent system and improves numerical capability in capturing the LUC and WPO circulations.</p>","PeriodicalId":54340,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024JC021378","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142555328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In June–July 2023, a field program documented the evolution of an under-ice phytoplankton bloom on the northeast Chukchi shelf. Here, we use in situ data from the cruise, a simple numerical model, historical water column data, and ocean reanalysis fields to characterize the physical setting and describe the dynamically driven vertical export of chlorophyll associated with the bloom. A water mass front separating cold, high-nutrient winter water in the north and warmer summer waters to the south—roughly coincident with the ice edge—supported a baroclinic jet which is part of the Central Channel flow branch that veers eastward toward Barrow Canyon. A plume of high chlorophyll fluorescence extending from the near-surface bloom in the winter water downwards along the front was measured throughout the cruise. Using a passive tracer to represent phytoplankton in the model, it was demonstrated that the plume is the result of subduction due to baroclinic instability of the frontal jet. This process, in concert with the gravitational sinking, pumps the chlorophyll downwards an order of magnitude faster than gravitational sinking alone. Particle tracking using the ocean reanalysis fields reveals that a substantial portion of the chlorophyll away from the front is advected off of the northeast Chukchi shelf before reaching the bottom.

In the present study, the near-field Yellow River plume, multiple fronts and their biogeochemical effects are investigated through moored, shipboard, and remote sensing observations. Numerical model simulations are conducted to help study the tidal movement of the Yellow River plume. The results show that the near-field Yellow River plume is generally advected back and forth in the east‒west direction under the effects of tidal currents. Following the plume leading front, a turbulent bore is observed to be generated and mix near-surface water with low turbidity and high concentration of dissolved oxygen into the water column. Behind the turbulent bore, a series of subfronts with distances of <i>O</i> (∼100 m) are formed. The generation mechanisms of these subfronts are found to be associated with internal shear instabilities. Under the effects of cross-front shear currents and vertical mixing near the subfronts, a three-layer structure of turbidity and surface low-turbidity stripes form inside the plume.

The product of a high-resolution (1/48°) oceanic numerical model, the LLC4320, is employed to investigate the seasonal variations of vertical heat transport induced by submesoscale processes within multiple mesoscale eddies in the Kuroshio Extension (KE) region. In different seasons, the submesoscale vertical heat transport exhibits a consistent upward pattern, with notably higher magnitudes observed during winter. In winter, the maxima value of submesoscale vertical heat flux (SVHF) can account for approximately 60% of the total vertical heat flux (VHF). This is equivalent to the average net sea surface heat flux in a single eddy region. In summer and autumn, the maxima absolute value of submesoscale vertical heat flux can account for approximately 30% of the total VHF. Energy analysis reveals that baroclinic instability associated with vertical buoyancy flux has a crucial effect on generating submesoscale processes within the eddy region. The submesoscale motions are influenced by the mixed layer instability, strain-induced frontogenesis, turbulent thermal wind and turbulent thermal wind-induced frontogenesis within the upper mixed layer, while they are largely associated with the strain-induced frontogenesis in the ocean interior.
