Abstract

Abstract

On the basis of the chlorophyll-a data remote sensed by SeaWiFS from October 1997 to September 2002,the spatial and temporal distributions of the monthly mean chlorophyll-a concentration in the South China Sea(SCS) are presented,and their results show that the chlorophyll-a concentrations are usually high in winter and low in spring in the mostareas of the SCS;the minimum monthly mean of chlorophyll-a concentration in the SCS generally appears in April or May,but their maximums in different areas appear in different months,that is,the maximum appears in December in the center of the sea basin,and in July along the coast area of Guangdong Province,and there are two peaks in August and Decem berre-spectively in the sout heast in shore area of Vietnam;it is special in the wester narea of the Luzon Strait that the maximum appears in December and the minimum in July.Spatially,the chlorophyll-a concentrations in in shore areas are higher than those in the central sea basin obviously,and higher in the wester nareas of the SCS than those in the eastern areas generally.The spat ial and temporal feat ures of the chloro phyl-l a concentration in the SCS can be affected by the variations of the circulation(such as upwelling),sea surface temperature and wind field,and related to the nutrient transport from land.
