초록

남극 아문젠해의 탄소순환을 이해하기 위해서 표층에서 심층으로의 입자상 유기탄소 침강플럭스를 ${\psi}$/${\psi}$ 비평형법을 이용하여 추정하였다. 2012년 2월과 3월에 걸쳐 남극 아문젠해의 총 14개 정점에서 깊이별로 해수시료를 채취하였고, 총 ${\psi}$, 용존 ${\psi}$ 및 입자상 유기탄소를 분석하였다. 수심에 따라 총 ${\psi}$의 활동도 농도는 ${\psi}$에 비하여 결핍과 과잉을 나타내었다. 유광대에서 총 ${\psi}$의 결핍 정도는 엽록소 및 형광도와 거울상을 나타내고, 질산염 제거와 수반되어 나타나므로 생물 활동의 영향으로 파악되었다. 심층에서 일어나는 총 ${\psi}$ 결핍은 Fe/Mn 산화물에 의해 이루어지는 것으로 해석되었다. 유광대 바로 아래의 수층에서 나타나는 총 ${\psi}$ 과잉은 재광물화 작용보다는 이 깊이에 집적된 입자상 ${\psi}$에 기인하였다. 정상상태 모델로 추정한 ${\psi}$의 침강플럭스는 평균 $867{\pm}246dpmm^{-2}day^{-1}$이었으며, 유광대에서 질소와 인의 결핍 총량과 밀접한 관련성을 보였다. 입자상 유기탄소와 ${\psi}$의 비율($7.08{\pm}4.27{\mu}molCdpm^{-1}$)을 이용하여 추정한 입자상 유기탄소의 침강플럭스는 평균 $5.9{\pm}3.9mmolCm^{-2}day^{-1}$으로 나타났는데 이 값은 2-3월의 웨델해와 유사한 수준이었다. 입자상 유기탄소 플럭스와 일차생산력의 비율로 나타낸 생물 펌프의 효율(ThE)은 3-54%(평균 28%) 범위였다.

In order to understand the carbon cycle in the Amundsen Sea of the Southern Ocean, the export fluxes of particulate organic carbon from the euphotic zone to deep water estimated using ${\psi}$/${\psi}$ disequilibrium method. Seawaters in 14 water columns were collected during February and March 2012, and analyzed for total and dissolved ${\psi}$, and particulate organic carbon. Total ${\psi}$ activities in the water column showed deficiency and excess relative to those of ${\psi}$ depending on the water depth. Deficiency of total ${\psi}$ in the euphotic zone showed mirror images both with chlorophyll-a and fluorescence, and was consistent with the loss of nitrate, which indicated the effect of biological activity. In addition, deficiency of total ${\psi}$ from deep water was associated with the increase of total dissolvable Fe/Mn concentration. Excess total ${\psi}$ activity presented below the euphotic zone might be related to particulate ${\psi}$ concentrated in this water depth. Mean export flux of ${\psi}$ estimated using the steady state model was $867{\pm}246dpmm^{-2}day^{-1}$. Mean export flux of particulate organic carbon, which were estimated by the product of total ${\psi}$ flux and ratio of POC/${\psi}$ ($7.08{\pm}4.27{\mu}molCdpm^{-1}$) in the sinking particles, was $5.9{\pm}3.9mmolCm^{-2}day^{-1}$. These fluxes were similar levels to those in the Weddell Sea during February and March 2008. Export ratios (ThE) relative to the primary production in the euphotic zone were in the range of 3-54% (av. 28%).
