备注

海洋以每小时超过100万t的速率,从大气中吸收矿物燃料衍生及人类排放的CO2,引起海水pH下降,导致海洋酸化.与此同时,全球变暖引起海洋升温,使得上部混合层变浅,导致该层内营养盐减少,浮游生物接受可见光和UV的辐射量增加,并且使得O2的溶解度降低,引起低氧化.这些海洋变化问题在全球范围内普遍存在,然而,不同海域的环境响应和生态效应有所不同.主要综述全球海洋酸化问题研究进展,突出升温、UV辐射影响下的酸化效应,进而结合南海相关的研究进展分析未来研究动态.

The oceans are taking up over one million tons of fossil CO2,resulting in increased dissolved CO2 and declining pH,leading to ocean acidification.Meanwhile,global warming due to accumulated CO2 and other greenhouse gases is causing ocean warming,which enhances stratification with thinned upper mixed layers,exposing planktonic cells or individuals within this layer to increasing levels of daytime integrated visible light as well as UV radiation.Ocean warming also reduces dissolved oxygen in seawater,resulting in ocean deoxygenation.All these ocean global changes are supposed to influence marine ecosystems in different regions.However,regional responses and ecological effects are expected to differ based on the documented knowledges.This review overviews the research advances in ocean acidification,highlighting the combined effects of ocean acidification with warming and solar UV radiation,and analyzes future research perspectives and then proposes some scientific hypothesis.
