Elevated concentrations of surface DFe (0.49-1.42 nM) were similar to those reported in resent studies, likely reflecting input from melting sea ice and river discharge. The rapid decrease in DFe (5.20-0.48 nM) and LPFe (88.2-1.83 nM) values observed from inshore to offshore in Pacific influenced waters, suggest scavenging processes limit the input of DFe from the shelf to the deep basin. However, frequent eddies found in this region are likely important in promoting lateral advection, as suggested by higher surface DFe concentrations at an offshore station in the vicinity of a warm-core eddy. Within the Atlantic layer, relatively homogeneous DFe (0.69-0.80 nM) and LPFe (1.18-2.13 nM) concentrations were observed at all the stations, reflecting a balance in the interplay between input and removal processes within this watermass. An input of DFe east of the Lomonosov Ridge was inferred by comparing DFe values within the core of Atlantic water between the Eastern and Western Arctic., 2010年晩夏に西部ボーフォート海で海水中の溶存鉄 (DFe)と懸濁態溶出性粒状鉄 (LPFe)の濃度分布を調べた。海洋表面で高い DFeの値 (0.49 nM to 1.42 nM)は、近年の研究結果とも一致し、海氷融解や河川からの供給によるものと考えられる。太平洋水の影響がみられる海域では、沿岸から沖合にかけて急激に DFe (5.20 nM to 0.48 nM)や LPFe (88.2 nM to 1.83 nM)の濃度が減少しており、鉄の除去過程が陸棚から海盆域への DFeの供給を制限することを示唆している。しかし、この海域でしばしば出現する渦が DFeの水平輸送に重要であることが、暖水渦に近接する沖合の観測点の海洋表面で高い濃度の DFeが観測されたことから言えるであろう。大西洋水層内では、比較的一様な濃度の DFe (0.69 nM to 0.80 nM)や LPFe (1.18 nM to 2.13 nM)が観測され、この水塊中で鉄の供給と除去が釣り合っていると考えられる。ロモノソフ海嶺の東側での DFeの供給は、北極海の東部と西部の間で大西洋水のコア内での DFeの値を比較することにより求めることができるだろう。}, pages = {82--99}, title = {Partitioning and lateral transport of iron to the Canada Basin}, volume = {7}, year = {2013} }
