冬季南海的水团及其与太平洋的水交换.docVIP

1998年夏、冬季南海的水团及其与太平洋的水交换 李凤岐1 李 磊2 王秀芹2 刘长乐2 (青岛海洋大学 1 环境科学与工程学院，2 海洋环境学院，青岛，266003) 摘 要 根据1998年夏季和冬季2个航次的实测资料，对南海的水团进行划分和分析，并利用1997年7月和12月的实测资料，对巴士海峡(吕宋海峡)和民都洛水道附近的温盐分布进行分析。1998年冬季的资料分析结果表明，可将南海外海水划分为6个水团，即南海表层水团(S)、南海次表层水团(U)、南海次-中层混合水团(UI)、南海中层水团(I)、南海深层水团(D)和南海底盆水(B)。1998年夏季还可在南海中鉴别出黑潮表层水团(KS)和黑潮次表层水团(KU)，但在冬季观测期间无黑潮水越过119.5°E经线进入南海；夏季有苏禄海水在50~75m层经民都洛水道侵入南海。然而，1997年夏季和冬季的资料分析表明：夏、冬两季都有大洋水通过吕宋海峡北段进入南海，南段有南海水流入太平洋。这些现象可能与1998年前后的厄尔尼诺有关。 关键词 南海；水团；巴士海峡(吕宋海峡)；民都洛水道；水交换 中图法分类号 P722.7；P731.16 文章编号 1001-1862(2002)03-0329-08 Water Masses in the South China Sea in Summer and Winter of 1998 and Water Exchange Between the Pacific and the South China Sea Li Fengqi1 Li Lei2 Wang Xiuqin2 Liu Changle2 (1 College of Environmental Science and Engineering, Ocean University of Qingdao, Qingdao 266003, China 2 College of Physical and Environmental Oceanography, Ocean University of Qingdao, Qingdao 266003, China) Abstract Water masses in the South China Sea (SCS) were distinguished and analyzed based upon data in summer and winter of 1998. Distributions of temperature and salinity near the Bashi Channel (Luzon Strait) and Mindoro Channel were analyzed by using data in July and December of 1997.The results from the data in winter of 1998 indicated that water in open sea areas of the SCS w as classified into six water masses, i.e. the Surface Water Mass of the SCS (S), the Subsurface Water Mass of the SCS (U), the SubsurfaceInter mediate Water Mass of the SCS(UI),the Intermediate Water Mass of the SCS(I), the Deep Water Mass of the SCS(D) and the Bottom Water Mass of the SCS(B). In summer of 1998, the Kuroshio Surface Water Mass (KS) and the Kuroshio Subsurface Water Mass (KU) were also distinguished in the SCS. But no Kuroshio water had intruded into the SCS passing 119.5癊 in the investigative period in winter. The Sulu Sea Water (SSW) had intruded into the SCS through the layer of 50～75m in the Mindoro Channel in summer of 1998. However, data of summer an
