讲座简介
In the Indian Ocean, mid-depth oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) occur in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. The lower part of the Arabian Sea OMZ (ASOMZ; below400 m) intensifies northward across the basin; in contrast, its upper part (above 400 m) is located in the central/eastern basin, well east of the most productive regions along the western boundary. The Bay of Bengal OMZ (BBOMZ), although strong, is weaker than the ASOMZ. To investigate the processes that maintain the Indian-Ocean OMZs, they obtain a suite of solutions to a coupled biological/physical model. To explore further the impact of local processes on OMZs, they also obtain analytic solutions to a one-dime-nsional, simplified version of the biological model. Their control run is able to simulate basic features of the oxygen, nutrient, and phytoplankton fields throughout the Indian Ocean.
