摘要

Abstract

Global warming has been reported to enhance thermal stratification and decrease the mix-layer depth (MLD) in waters due to higher surface water temperatures

especially in summer. Previous studies were conducted for individual cases or specific periods. At present

there is a lack of global assessments on the influence of climate warming in different seasons on thermal stratification. The ECMWF Reanalysis v5 (ERA5) dataset was used to estimate the variability of water body mixing and its drivers in different seasons and regions. Results indicate that global warming could enhance thermal stratification and decrease the MLD globally in summer. Wind speed was the primary driver of MLD changes

followed by temperature. However

ice melt due to global warming enhanced the mixing in ice-covered waters in the Northern Hemisphere

and early ice melt led to early mixing. Ice depth was the primary driver of MLD changes in the Northern Hemisphere due to delayed ice formation and earlier melting

while wind speed was the primary driver in other regions or during ice-free seasons. The enhanced mixing due to earlier ice melt out in late winter and early spring could promote water circulation and nutrient turnover

and replenish dissolved oxygen in deep water

thereby promoting the maximum biomass of cyanobacteria and advance harmful algal blooms.
