동중국해와 미국 멕시코만에서 입자성 유기탄소의 공간적 분포 특성 연구

Abstract

Surface particulate organic carbon (POC) concentration was measured in the Northeastern Gulf of Mexico on 9 cruises from November 1997 to August 2000 and the East China Sea on to 6 cruise from 2003 to 2010 to investigate the seasonal and spatial variability related to synchronous remote sensing data (SeaWiFS/MODIS ocean color data, sea surface temperature, sea surface height anomaly, and sea surface wind) and recorded river discharge data. In this study we will investigate the temporal and spatial variability of particulate matter, especially particulate organic carbon (POC), and determine the physical forcing factors that significantly affect the distribution of particulate materials with matching satellite data. Satellite remote sensing and in situ measurement were used to detect changes in the particle distributions as affected by river discharge, local wind stresses, and the current and eddies. The influence of each factor is examined.
