摘要

The Po-210-Pb-210 pair is increasingly used as a proxy of quantifying organic carbon export from the euphotic zone. However, disequilibria between Po-210 and Pb-210 in mesopelagic water have been poorly studied. Here we present unusual deficiencies of Po-210 with respect to Pb-210 in mesopelagic water (200-1000 m) in the South China Sea (SCS). The total particulate matter (TPM) increased by up to 32% in the mesopelagic layer comparing with the euphotic zone. The total Po-210/Pb-210 ratio varied from 0.41 to 0.98 with an average of 0.72 +/- 0.19, showing an enhanced removal of Po-210 in mesopelagic water. On average, particulate Po-210 and Pb-210 increased by 23% and 32% at the slope stations, respectively. These results indicated that the Po-210 deficits result from lateral transport, probably via benthic nepheloid layer. Based on the deficiency of Po-210, the residence times of particulate Po-210 were estimated to range from 0.11 to 0.25 year (avg. 0.17 +/- 0.07 year), allowing resuspended sediment to disperse over a long range. The export fluxes of Po-210 varied from 68 to 121 dpm m(-2) d(-1) with an average of 96 +/- 27 dpm m(-2) d(-1), which was 6 times that out of the euphotic zone. Using the Po-210 deficits, the export fluxes of TPM out of the mesopelagic layer were quantified to vary from 4.19 to 10.20 g m(-2) d(-1), revealing a large amount of particles from the shelf to the SCS basin. This study suggests that Po-210-Pb-210 could be an effective tracer of tracking particle cycling in mesopelagic water.
