High‐frequency time‐series autonomous observations of sea surface pCO2 and pH

Abstract: Carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO 2) in surface water was continuously measured every 3 h from July 2012 to June 2013 using an autonomous pCO 2 system (MAPCO 2) deployed on a moored buoy on the East China Sea shelf (31 N, 124.5 E). Sea surface pCO 2 and pH had the largest variations in summer, ranging from 215 to 470 μatm, and 7.941 to 8.263 (averagely 8.084 ± 0.080), respectively. They varied little in winter, ranging from 328 to 395 μatm, and 8.003 to 8.074 (averagely 8.052 ± 0.010), respectively. The sea… Show more

“…However, this conclusion may not be valid in other regions. For example, unlike our study area (a subtropical area with a relatively deep nutricline), the East and South China seas showed enhancements in the chlorophyll-a concentration of approximately five times after TC passage (Ye et al, 2013;Wu et al, 2020). This difference may be due to regional variations of the vertical chlorophyll-a and nutrient profiles, and especially due to the shallower nutricline of the shelf regions (the East and South China seas), where NO 3 − concentration is one order of magnitude greater than in our study region at 50 m depth.…”

“…This compensatory effect is welldocumented; however, regional differences in the physical and chemical properties of subsurface water result in large variability in the surface pCO 2 in response to TC passage (Mahadevan et al, 2011;Lévy et al, 2012;Ye et al, 2020). Phytoplankton CO 2 fixation, which is fueled by the supply of subsurface nutrients, is also highly variable in space and time (Lin, 2012;Ye et al, 2013;Wu et al, 2020;Chai et al, 2021;Zhang et al, 2021). Furthermore, the magnitude and direction of air-sea CO 2 flux during and after TC passage strongly depend on pre-storm pCO 2 conditions and the intensities of individual TCs (Lévy et al, 2012).…”

“…Similar to the Mississippi River plume, the Changjiang plume is a strong carbon sink in summer due to intense biological production. The biological uptake of CO 2 and the air-sea CO 2 flux in the Changjiang plume have large temporal variations associated with episodic wind events (Li et al, 2018(Li et al, , 2019Wu et al, 2020). Typhoon winds cause Changjiang plume waters to become a strong carbon source through the upward transport of high-CO 2 bottom waters (Li et al, 2019) or cause the waters to become carbon sinks by in situ biological production or the advection of undersaturated-CO 2 waters (Zhang et al, 2018;Wu et al, 2020).…”

Unlike typhoons, southerly or southwesterly winds prevail in summer in the East China Sea and are associated with offshore advection and even the detachment of Changjiang plume waters (Lie et al, 2003;Xuan et al, 2012).…”
