Effects of the Arctic river runoff on the Arctic Ocean circulation

  • 摘要: 北极河流径流是北冰洋淡水的最大来源,其变化会对北冰洋中的诸多过程有重要影响。本文基于全球高分辨率海洋−海冰耦合模式的模拟结果,研究北冰洋温盐、海冰以及环流对北极河流径流的敏感性。通过对比有气候态北极河流径流输入的控制实验结果和径流完全关闭的敏感性实验结果,研究发现北极径流对北冰洋温度、盐度、海冰以及海洋环流等有显著的影响。关闭北极河流径流后,在河口附近的陆架上温度降低、盐度升高,且导致500 m深度处温度下降以及盐度升高;河口附近的陆架处,海冰密集度与海冰厚度增加。关闭北极河流径流也对北冰洋内的环流有影响:由于缺少来自欧亚大陆的北极径流的输入,穿极漂流与东格陵兰流流速减小且盐度增加;关闭北极径流导致近岸海表面高度降低,沿欧亚陆架的北冰洋边界流减弱,白令海入流增强。通过对比关闭北极径流实验与控制实验的温度和盐度剖面,发现关闭北极径流后大西洋层温度降低,各陆架海盐跃层的梯度减小,盐跃层厚度减小。

    The blue solid rectangles represent the input points of the runoff data in the model. The red line divides the regions of each marginal sea. The regions bounded by black and red lines are the regions where the hydrographic profiles of the Arctic Ocean are calculated. Black point 1 (72.51°N,151.75°W) and black point 2 (79.13°N,128.62°E) are two points selected at the edge of the Canadian Basin and Eurasian Basin. We analyze the subsidence capacity of the surface water through the temperature and salinity profiles of these two points in the experiment without river runoff. The open blue boxes are the areas of computing the regional averages of the Bering Strait, Arctic Circumpolar Boundary Current and the Fram Strait and Transpolar Drift Stream
