摘要

Significant strides in our understanding of the marine pelagic ecosystem of the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) region have been made over the past two decades, resulting from research conducted aboard ARSV Laurence M. Gould and RVIB Nathaniel B. Palmer. These advances range from an understanding of the physical forcing on biology, to food web ecology (from microbes to top predators), to biogeochemical cycling, often in the larger context of rapid climate warming in the region. The proximity of the WAP to the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and WAP continental shelf bathymetry affects the hydrography and helps structure the biological community. Seasonal, spatial, and interannual variability at all levels of the food web, as well as the mechanisms supporting their production, are now more clearly understood. New tools and technologies employed in the region were critical for making this research possible. As a result, our knowledge of the WAP pelagic ecosystem during a time of rapid climate change has vastly improved.

Palmer进行的研究,在了解南极半岛西部海洋中上层生态系统方面取得了长足的进步。这些进展的范围从对生物学的物理强迫的理解到食物网生态(从微生物到顶级捕食者)再到生物地球化学循环,通常是在该地区气候迅速变暖的大背景下。 WAP靠近南极极地洋流和WAP大陆架测深法会影响水文学,并有助于构建生物群落。现在,人们更加清楚地了解了食物网各个级别的季节性,空间和年际变化以及支持其生产的机制。该地区采用的新工具和技术对于使这项研究成为可能至关重要。结果,在快速的气候变化时期,我们对WAP中上层生态系统的了解已大大提高。
