摘要:

浮游动物是海洋生态系统中重要的次级生产者, 同时也是海洋食物网和生物地球化学循环的关键环节。因其个体小、代谢快、随波逐流的生活方式等特点, 多数浮游动物可快速响应并指示海洋环境变化, 因此历来受到学界广泛关注。文章在回顾南海浮游动物科学考察的基础上, 概括了南海浮游动物的物种组成, 总结了南海典型生态区(珠江口、大亚湾、岛礁和深海)以及南海北部和南部海域的浮游动物群落特征, 阐释了季风及其驱动的海流、水团以及生境异质性等因素对浮游动物群落结构的影响。结合当前气候变化和人类活动影响背景下浮游动物研究的热点和难点, 针对性地指出了南海浮游动物研究存在的不足之处并提出相关研究展望, 以期为南海生物多样性保护、海洋生物地球化学循环研究以及海洋生物资源可持续利用等方面奠定坚实基础, 也为预测南海海洋生态系统应对气候变化的适应能力提供科学依据。

Abstract:

As secondary producers, zooplankton play an important role in marine food webs and biogeochemical cycles. Due to their small body size, rapid metabolism, and passive drifting lifestyle, zooplankton can respond sensitively to marine environmental changes, making them effective indicators of oceanic variability. Based on a review of scientific investigations of zooplankton in the South China Sea, this paper summarized current knowledge on species composition in the South China Sea, and compared and analyzed the distribution of zooplankton communities in typical ecological habitats (such as the Pearl River Estuary, Daya Bay, coral reefs, and the deep sea) as well as in the northern and southern waters of the South China Sea. It also discussed the effects of monsoons, monsoon-driven ocean currents, water masses and habitat heterogeneity on zooplankton community structure. In light of current hotspots and challenges under the background of climate change and anthropogenic stress, this article pointed out the shortcomings in zooplankton research in the South China Sea and proposed future research directions in biodiversity, ecological functions, and biological oceanography. The aim is to provide a scientific basis for biodiversity conservation, biogeochemical cycle studies, sustainable utilization of marine resources, and scientific support for predicting the adaptability of marine ecosystems to climate change in the South China Sea.
