Abstract
The isotope parameters and sources of freshwater components for the subsurface, intermediate, and deep water of the western Bering Sea were estimated using the isotope (δ18О, δD) data for 177 seawater samples. We show that subsurface, dichothermal and, partially, intermediate water (<1000 m) are freshened by regional precipitation. For these waters, the next equations of relations between delta and salinity values were obtained: δ18О = [0.390 ± 0.018]S – 13.521 ± 0.613 and δD = [3.07 ± 0.08]S – 107 ± 2.74. Deeper (1000–2500 m) water is also freshened by precipitation but from the more southern region (≈40°–45° S). The deepest water (2800–4300 m) retain their isotope signal obtained via freshening by Antarctic glacier ice meltwater. The distribution of isotope parameters with the depth shows that vertical mixing at depths of ≈1000–2500 m takes place. This process should influent the redistribution of nutrients, dissolved oxygen, organic matter, and other components in water of the western Bering Sea. The isotope composition of water passing into the Arctic Ocean halocline (S = 33.1) from the Bering Sea are δ18О = –0.61‰ and δD = –5.4‰.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
