摘要

Abstract

The distributions of dimethylsulfide (DMS) and its precursor dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) in surface water of the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea were studied during June 2011. The mean concentrations and ranges of DMS

dissolved DMSP (DMSPd)

and particulate DMSP (DMSPp) in surface waters were 6.85 (1.60–12.36)

7.25 (2.28–19.05) and 61.87 (6.28–224.01) nmol/L

respectively. There were strong correlations between DMSPp and chlorophyll a in the Bohai Sea and the North Yellow Sea

respectively

and concentrations of DMS and DMSP were high

with a relatively high proportion of dinoflagellates

in the region of the South Yellow Sea Cold Water Mass. Results show that phytoplankton biomass and species composition were important factors that controlled the distribution of DMS and DMSP. Complex environmental factors

including nutrients

transparency

and terrestrial runoff

might also influence the variability in DMS and DMSP. Biological production and consumption rates of DMS in the Bohai Sea were higher than those in the Yellow Sea. DMS production rates were closely correlated with DMSPd concentrations. DMS and DMSP exhibited obvious diel variations

with high concentrations occurring in the late afternoon (16:00–19:00) and low concentrations occurring during the night

implying that the intensity of solar radiation had a significant influence on these variations. Size distributions of chlorophyll a and DMSPp were also investigated and large nanoplankton (5–20 μm)

mainly diatoms

contributed significantly to chlorophyll a and DMSPp at most stations. The average sea-to-air flux of DMS in the study area was estimated to be 11.07 μmol/(m2·d) during the summer.
