摘要

The lack of baseline estimates of air-sea CO2 exchange in Arctic and sub-Arctic regions represents a major shortfall in our ability to understand how climate change may affect CO2 fluxes at high latitude. The 2005 ArcticNet cruise of Hudson Bay provided a rare comprehensive oceanographic survey of one such region. Ship-based observations of sea-surface fugacity of CO2 (ƒCO2sw) were made at 56 locations between September 15 and October 26, and were found to range from 259muatm in Hudson Strait to 425muatm at the entrance to James Bay. Strong relationships between ƒCO 2sw and river discharge were identified, with coastal waters observed to be supersaturated in ƒCO2sw with respect to the atmosphere (and thus a source of CO2), while off-shore waters were undersaturated (thus a sink). High correlation of ƒCO 2sw with salinity, sea surface temperature (SST), and colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) suggest that thermodynamic effects and possibly the oxidation of riverine carbon were driving supersaturation in the coastal zone.;To expand the spatial and temporal domain of the study, a remote sensing approach was applied. Predictive algorithms for ƒCO 2sw were created from relationships with CDOM and SST; variables which can be measured from satellite remote sensing platforms. A SST-ƒ CO2sw algorithm was used with monthly maps of SST obtained from the MODIS aqua sensor to extrapolate ƒCO2sw in Hudson Bay for the 2005 ice-free season (August-October). Gas transfer velocities were estimated using twice-daily QuikSCAT wind retrievals, and by using a bulk aerodynamic approach the monthly flux of CO2 in Hudson Bay was calculated. The results of these calculations revealed that Hudson Bay acts as a source of CO2 during August and September (4.10 and 5.29 mmol m-2 day-1, respectively), but reverts to a sink of CO2 in October as the water temperature cools (-5.83 mmol-2 day-1). By integrating over the spatial extent of Hudson Bay and the 92 day open-water season, a positive flux of 0.93 TgC was estimated. This result is in contrast to most Arctic or sub-Arctic continental shelf seas, where usually strong absorptions of CO2 are observed. It is hypothesized that this difference is related to the strong influence of river discharge.;Future studies are necessary to constrain fluxes in Hudson Bay over an annual cycle and to determine the oceanographic controls on CO2 flux. However, this study is significant since it represents the first-ever examination of air-sea CO2 exchange in Hudson Bay.
