However, the precise impact of Kuroshio intrusion on the composition and distribution of phytoplankton communities remains unclear. We hypothesized that the Kuroshio intrusion alleviates phosphorus limitations on phytoplankton growth and enhances phytoplankton diversity within the ECS. We collected phytoplankton samples and relevant physicochemical data from the ECS across four seasons in 2011. We observed that phytoplankton abundance and chlorophyll <i>a</i> concentration were significantly higher during summer and autumn compared to winter and spring. Notably, elevated phytoplankton biomass was detected in the Zhejiang coastal waters during spring, and along the boundary between Kuroshio Subsurface Water and Changjiang Diluted Water during summer and autumn. The dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) carried by Kuroshio subsurface water mitigated the phosphorus limitation in summer and stimulated the growth of phytoplankton in spring and autumn. Redundancy analysis revealed a strong association between low-salinity species and nutrient levels, while warm-water species appeared to be influenced primarily by temperature. Generalized additive models further elucidated that phytoplankton biomass in coastal region was primarily influenced by nitrogen/phosphorus (N/P) ratio, and silicate/nitrogen (Si/N) ratio, whereas in Kuroshio region, DIP and N/P ratio played more significant roles. In mixed region, phytoplankton biomass was influenced by temperature, Si/N ratio, and stratification. The intrusion of the Kuroshio significantly enhanced phytoplankton diversity (species number, warm-water species number, and Shannon index) in the Kuroshio region compared to the coastal and mixed regions. These findings underscore the substantial influence of Kuroshio intrusion on the spatial and seasonal variations of phytoplankton biomass and community composition within the ECS.</p>","PeriodicalId":54340,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans","volume":"130 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143595073","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}

While this front is known to be influenced by factors such as wind and topography, the role of surface waves, particularly in relation to upwelling frontal instability, remains inadequately understood. This study investigated the impact of conservative wave effects (Stokes drift and related forces) on the wind-driven coastal upwelling front over an idealized continental shelf using a coupled wave-circulation model. Our findings indicate that conservative wave effects reduce upwelling in the inshore shallow waters but have minimal impact in the offshore deep waters. Moreover, we find that conservative wave effects accelerate the instability of offshore upwelling fronts in comparison to that without waves. This acceleration is primarily due to the increased vertical shear caused by the enhanced currents in the presence of waves. Further, the time of occurrence of frontal instability depends on wave direction, wave height, and period. Specifically, when waves propagate down-front (in the same direction as the frontal jet), the front becomes more unstable than that with up/cross-front waves. In addition, the presence of tides partially offsets the reduction in inshore upwelling caused by surface waves; however, the upwelling frontal instability remains being accelerated by waves.</p>","PeriodicalId":54340,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans","volume":"130 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143595107","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 uses a fully coupled climate model (FIO-ESM v2.1) to investigate the specific impacts of increased Atlantic and Pacific OHTs on Arctic Ocean temperature, sea ice extent, and sea ice concentration. Our sensitivity experiments reveal that increased Atlantic OHT affects the temperature of the entire Arctic Ocean with the greatest impacts found in the Barents Sea and Eurasian Basin and at intermediate depths of the Arctic basin. The warming extent and efficiency from increased Atlantic OHT is considerably greater than that from Pacific OHT. Without warming of the Atlantic Water inflow, the rate of Arctic Ocean warming would decrease by approximately 50%. Increased Pacific OHT mainly affects the upper ocean in the Pacific sector, including the Chukchi Sea, East Siberian Sea, and Canada Basin. Increased OHT from both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans leads to notable sea ice decline with distinct regional and seasonal variations. Increased Atlantic OHT contributes to sea ice decline across most of the Arctic Ocean, particularly in the Barents Sea, the Kara Sea, and the central Arctic.

Using the long-term in situ data from the U.S. Antarctic Marine Living Resources program, satellite observations, and ERA5 reanalysis products, the mechanisms of the elevated chlorophyll-a anomalies in summer 2006 were analyzed. The results suggest that the position of the Amundsen Sea Low (ASL) shifted considerably westward that summer, resulting in strong positive sea level pressure anomalies west of the NAP, which induced southerly wind anomalies and reduced the advection of moist airflow toward the NAP. This in turn reduced the cloud coverage and increased photosynthetically available radiation over this region, which directly increased the phytoplankton photosynthesis.
