摘要

采用SODA海洋同化产品的月平均资料,本文分析了阿拉伯海东南海域表层盐度的季节变化特征,发现局地海面淡水通量不能解释盐度的变化。两个典型区域的表层海水盐度收支分析表明,海洋的平流输送是造成阿拉伯海东南海域盐度冬季降低、夏季升高的主要原因,而淡水通量仅在夏季印度西侧沿岸区域造成盐度降低。冬季,东北季风环流将孟加拉湾北部的低盐水沿同纬度输送到阿拉伯海,然后向北输送,使表层海水盐度降低;夏季,西南季风环流把阿拉伯海西北部的高盐水向南、向东输送,使阿拉伯海东南海域盐度升高。受地理位置因素的影响,阿拉伯海东南海域表层盐度的变化冬季明显强于夏季。

Abstract

Based on the monthly mean data of Simple Ocean Data Assimilation (SODA) product, the authors analyze the seasonal salinity budget of surface layer in the southeastern Arabian Sea., The salinity variation in the region cannot be explained by surface freshwater flux. The salinity budgets in two typical regions show that horizontal advection dominates salinity variation, decreasing the salinity in winter and increasing it in summer, except for the coastal region off western India where the surface freshwater flux decreases salinity in summer. During winter, the northeast monsoon current advects fresher water from the Bay of Bengal into the Arabian Sea along the same latitude and then transports the low saline-water northward, resulting in salinity reduction in the surface layer of the southeastern Arabian Sea. During summer, southwest monsoon current advects high-salinity water in the northwestern Arabian Sea southeastward, increasing the salinity in the surface layer of the southeastern Arabian Sea. In the southeastern Arabian Sea, salinity variation of the surface layer is prominently stronger in winter than in summer.
