気候変動の緩和策として,水圏における生態系の光合成活動によって吸収・貯留される炭素である"ブルーカーボン"が注目されている.ブルーカーボンを形成している水生植物(Submerged Aquatic Vegetation : SAV)は,生息する沿岸浅水域や湖の空間スケールと比較し,小さなスケールでパッチ状に存在することも多く,流れとの相互干渉で複雑な流況を作り出す可能性が高い.その結果,水域における炭素吸収量および大気から水中への炭素隔離量も大きく影響を受け,その正確な見積もりを困難にしている.そのため,SAVが空間の一部に存在する場合における流動場の理解と,物質輸送に関する詳細な解析を行う必要がある.これに対し,SAV と流れ場の相互作用を詳細に再現したSAV modelがこれまでの研究で構築されてきた.そこで本研究では,SAV modelを利用し,パッチ状に存在するSAV(SAVパッチ)が水路幅を占める割合(占有率)およびSAVのたわみが,流動場と炭素吸収量の両者に与える影響について検討を行った.その結果,占有率とSAVのたわみが炭素吸収量と炭素隔離量に影響を与える重要な要因であることが明らかになった.加えて,占有率とSAVの弾性係数が大きいほど大気から水中への炭素隔離が促進されることが示された.

Abstract Net ecosystem production (NEP) by submerged aquatic vegetation plays a substantial role in capturing atmospheric carbon dioxide into ecosystems. In lakes and estuaries, the net uptake of is mediated stratification water column which suppresses vertical flux between upper lower layers. The presence can also affect strength such that interactions vegetation, stratification, NEP moderate emissions. Since occur there need for new numerical approach able to consider effect on NEP, dioxide. This study aims develop model investigate how density flexibility, affects partial pressure ( p CO 2 ) dissolved inorganic (DIC). After initial parameterization coefficients based experimental work, horizontal variations DIC were successfully modeled spatially (horizontally) integrated (SiDIC) model, was validated with field observations from an estuarine freshwater lake case study. SiDIC reproduce changes daytime nighttime throughout column. Sensitivity tests showed fluctuation controlled suppression due vegetation. results highlight importance resolving vegetation‐induced when modeling budget within coastal environments.

In 1974, Csanady and Scott developed theoretical solutions for the flow fields displacements of a density interface in rectangular basin with two-layer stratification when constant wind stress was suddenly imposed. However, their do not satisfy all boundary conditions. present study, we have corrected these analyzed validity by comparing them numerical simulations. We found that high upwelling does occur nonlinear effects, vertical circulation, layer effects are small. addition, Wedderburn number WN is more significant applicability than Burger Si. Furthermore, highly applicable to actual phenomena WN≥ 1.98.

A typhoon is extreme weather that flushes terrestrial carbon (C) loads and temporally mixes the entire water columns of lakes in subtropical regions. C flux varies based on trophic level associated with ecological cycle related to hydraulic retention time (residence time). Herein, we sought clarify how disturbance from a affect regimes two mountain humid region Taiwan different levels—oligotrophic mesotrophic. We investigated meteorological data vertical profiles temperature, dissolved inorganic (DIC), organic (DOC), chlorophyll (Chl. a) during pre-typhoon period (April–July), (August–November), post-typhoon (December–March) for five years (2009–2010 2015–2017). applied three-dimensional environmental model (Fantom) investigate effect net ecosystem production (NEP) using residence stratified lakes.

The propagation of elevation internal solitary waves (ISWs) over a large triangular ridge was investigated experimentally in stratified fluid flume. characteristics the ISWs were measured by using real-time wave measuring instrument and particle image velocimetry, respectively. At front slope ridge, obvious accumulation appeared, waveform distorted broadened, ISW amplitude increased slightly, phase velocity decreased suddenly, lower layer flow significantly. In region top, counterclockwise vortex bright spots which signified occurrence breaking, shape incident transferred to table-top wave. back fission became symmetric gradually restored normal, significantly, slightly. energy consistently during whole loss about 30%–35% Due breaking fission, occurred near top largest almost same at symmetrical positions on slopes.

Abstract Thermal stratification is a critical physical process controlling carbon (C) flux from lakes into the atmosphere. In general, vertical water temperature profiles in shallow subtropical can vary significantly because typhoons frequently induce mixing across entire lake due to strong winds and rapid flushing river inputs. Since C fluxes are driven by dissolved inorganic (DIC), it necessary understand stratification's influence on DIC dynamics lakes. Therefore, we aimed clarify impact of Yuan‐Yang Lake, typical mountain lake, developing net ecosystem production (NEP) model. We measured profile once or twice month July 2004 December 2017. applied three‐dimensional hydrological model estimate residence time NEP, which revealed that large amounts stored lower layer spring summer suppression stratification. autumn winter, was well mixed, evenly distributed column mixing.
