Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立中山大學 === 海洋地質研究所 === 82 === The suspended particulate organic matter in surface sea-water was measured at 19 stations in the Sea of Japan, 42 stations in the East China Sea, 7 stations North of Taiwan and 6 stations in the Philippine Sea and The Bashi Channel. Particulate organic carbon,particulate organic hydrogen, particulate organic oxygen, particulate phosphorus and total organic matter concentrations were determined in the Sea of Japan and the East China Sea. These parameters except particulate phosphorus and total organic matter were determined in the area North of Taiwan. The concerntrations ofparticulate organic carbon、 particulate organic nitrogen、particulate organic sulfur and particulate organic oxygen were determined in the Philippine Sea and the Bashi Channel. In the Sea of Japan organic components did not show much variation. In the East China Sea high concerntrations of SPM and other organic components were found near Yantze River (maximum of particulate organic carbon 22.6μmol/L and maximum of particulate organic nitrogen 2.91μ mol/L at station 35). In the area North of Taiwan, except for stations 11 and 18 where higher particulate organic carbon concentrations (13.57 and 11.43μmol/L)were found, other organic components did not show much variation. In the Philippine Sea and the Bashi Channel, all stations B2 and B4 were in the open ocean. The effect of terrestrial input was not obvious, resulting in lower particulate organic carbon and particulate organic nitrogen concentrations (particulate organic carbon 1.09∼1.88μmol/L, particulte organic nitrogen 0.11∼0.26μmol/L). The average molar ratis for all samples were C:H:N:S:O:P=8.2:17.0:1.0:0.2:8.1:0.2.
