摘要

Abstract

6-Tripyridine-s-triazine (TPTZ) spectrophotometric method was applied to determine the concentrations of dissolved monosaccharides (MCHO)

polysaccharides (PCHO)

and total carbohydrate (TCHO) in seawater samples collected from sea surface to hadal zone and sediment-seawater interface of the Southern Yap Trench in the Western Pacific Ocean. Results show that the concentrations of MCHO

PCHO

and TCHO ranged from 6.3 to 22.3 μmol C/L

1.1 to 25.4 μmol C/L

and 12.1 to 44.9 μmol C/L

respectively

from the euphotic layer to the hadal zone of the trench. At different sampling stations

the concentrations of MCHO

PCHO

and TCHO in the seawater showed complex vertical variation characteristics

but the overall variation trends were decreasing with water depth. In the Southern Yap Trench

the maximum concentration of MCHO in the seawater appeared in the euphotic layer

and the minimum in the hadal zone. The maximum concentration of PCHO appeared in the euphotic layer

and the minimum in the bathypelagic layer. The water layer where the maxima and minima of the average concentration of TCHO appeared was consistent with that of PCHO. PCHO was the major component of TCHO in the seawater of the Southern Yap Trench. In the seawater from the sediment-seawater interface

the concentrations of MCHO

PCHO

and TCHO ranged from 8.4 to 10.6 μmol C/L

3.8 to 5.8 μmol C/L

and 12.2 to 15.2 μmol C/L

respectively

and MCHO was the major component of TCHO. The key factors affecting the concentration and existing forms of dissolved sugars in the seawater of the Southern Yap Trench included photosynthesis

respiration

polysaccharide hydrolysis

adsorption and desorption of particulate matter

trench “funnel effect”

deep ocean currents

sediment resuspension

and etc. This study provided fundamental data about labile organic matter in abyss and hadal zone of marine environment

which is significant for further understanding of deep-sea organic carbon cycle.
