Distribution patterns and influencing factors of transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) in the coast of eastern Fujian in summer

摘要

摘要: 透明胞外聚合颗粒物(TEP)在海洋微食物网和海洋碳循环中发挥着重要作用。本文针对夏季闽东沿海TEP的分布特征及影响因素进行研究。结果表明，闽东沿海TEP含量(以黄原胶为标准物质计算，后同)范围为25.2～935.5 μg/L，平均值为(201.8±177.9) μg/L。整体而言，TEP的分布表现为近岸高、远岸低，表层TEP含量相对于底层要低。相关性分析显示，研究海域TEP含量与浊度和营养盐(硅酸盐、磷酸盐、硝酸盐、亚硝酸盐和铵盐)浓度呈正相关，与pH、溶解氧浓度和小型浮游生物量呈负相关。分级叶绿素a结果显示，相对于其他尺寸浮游植物，调查海域小型浮游生物可能对TEP含量的贡献最大。相比于开阔大洋中TEP主控因素为浮游植物而言，夏季闽东海域TEP主要由浮游植物在衰退阶段产生，其分布主要受颗粒物再悬浮作用影响。该结果不仅进一步阐明了近岸海域与开阔大洋TEP影响因素的区别，并且对我国近海海域不同区域TEP分布研究空白进行了补充。

Abstract: Transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) play an important role in the marine micro-food web and the marine carbon cycle. The distribution patterns and influencing factors of TEP in the coast of eastern Fujian in summer are investigated in this research. The results show that the contents of TEP (calculated with xanthan gum as the standard substance, the same below) in the coast of eastern Fujian ranged from 25.2 μg/L to 935.5 μg/L, with an average value of (201.8±177.9) μg/L. The level of TEP is high in the near-shore and low in the far-shore, which in surface layer is lower than that in bottom layer. Correlation analysis shows that TEP in the research area are positively correlated with turbidity, silicate, phosphate, nitrite, nitrate and ammonium concentration, negatively correlated with pH, DO concentration and Net-level phytoplankton. The results of chlorophyll a fractions show that Net-level phytoplankton in the area may contribute more to TEP than other size phytoplankton. Comparing with phytoplankton as the main controlling factor of TEP in the open ocean, TEP in the coast of eastern Fujian in summer are mainly produced by phytoplankton in the decline stage, and its distribution is mainly affected by the resuspension of particles. The results can not only further clarify the differences between the influencing factors of TEP in the coastal waters and the open ocean, but also supplement the gaps in the study of TEP distribution in different regions of coastal waters in China.
