Abstract

Chromophoric Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM) plays a dominant role in absorbing UV-VIS light and is also important in the biogeochemical carbon cycle due to the production of carbon dioxide from photo-oxidation at the sea surface in marine environments. Since absorption by CDOM was recently found to be responsible for increasing the energy absorbed in the mixed layer by 40 % over pure seawater, the importance of CDOM absorption in seawater for increasing sea surface temperature has come to be well recognized. We measured aCDOM and the absorption characteristics of CDOM during spring 2012 and 2014 in the southwestern East Sea. Distribution of CDOM in spring 2012 and 2014 was compared and S value was used to find the source of CDOM in the study area. As a result, the average $a_{CDOM}$ was $0.237m^{-1}$ ($0.009{\sim}0.988m^{-1}$) and the average S value was $16{\mu}m^{-1}$,which shows coastal properties. Also a positive correlation between Chl a and CDOM was observed ($r^2=0.34$), with an especially strong correlation near coastal stations. aCDOM in 2014 was about 40 % higher than aCDOM in 2012 during spring in the study area. This difference in aCDOM concentration resulted not only from annual variation but also from stratification and photobleaching in late spring 2012. This observation implies the possibility of flux of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere as a result of photo-oxidation in the East Sea.

해양환경에서 유색용존유기물은 자외선과 가시광선을 흡수하는 주요한 역할을 하며, 표층에서 광분해 과정을 통해 이산화탄소로 산화됨으로써 해양환경의 생지화학적 탄소순환에도 중요한 역할을 한다. 최근 봄철 유색용존유기물을 포함한 해수의 혼합층에서 순수한 해수에 비해 약 40 % 이상 열에너지를 흡수한다는 점도 알려지면서, 유색용존유기물이 기여하는 해수 수온상승에 대한 역할의 중요성이 알려졌다. 본 연구는 봄철 동해 남동부해역의 해수표층에서 빛에너지 흡수의 원인이 되는 유색용존유기물에 의한 흡광도와 흡광 특성을 측정하였다. 봄철 동해 남서부해역에서 2012년과 2014년에 측정된 유색용존유기물의 분포를 비교하고 공급원을 파악하고자 S값을 이용하였다. 그 결과, 두 해의 표층수 중 유색용존유기물의 흡광계수는 평균값이 $0.237m^{-1}$($0.009{\sim}0.988m^{-1}$)이고, S값은 $16{\mu}m^{-1}$로서 연안수의 특성을 보였다. Chl a와 유색용존유기물 사이에 약한 양의 상관관계를 보였으며($r^2=0.34$), 특히 외양에 비해 연안 쪽 정점들이 더 강한 상관관계를 보였다. 봄철 혼합층에서 2014년 유색용존유기물의 농도는 $0.299m^{-1}$로서 2012년의 $0.180m^{-1}$에 비해 약 40% 높게 측정되었다. 두 해의 유색용존유기물이 흡광계수의 차이는 연 변화 이외에도 측정시기의 차이에서 2012년 봄철 진행된 성층화와 일조량 증가에 의한 광분해의 결과로 보인다. 이는 간접적으로 표층 해수 표면을 통한 광산화과정에 의한 대기로의 이산화탄소 유입 가능성을 시사한다.
