The Arctic is widely considered to be the Earths most sensitive region with respect to climate changes,and acidification of the Arctic Ocean is predicted to be more pronounced than in any other ocean.A 1994 transatlantic section along the longitude~170°W in the western Arctic Ocean has been used as a baseline for estimating the aragonite saturation state(Ω arag)and associated acidification status.Here,we analyze a new~170°W transatlantic section collected in 2010 and compared the results with the previous section measured approximately two decades earlier.The comparison showed a large-scale expansion of corrosive “acidified” water(Ω arag < 1.0)in the western Arctic Ocean relative to earlier observations.Model simulations suggest that the recent significant increases in Pacific winter water inflows via the Bering Strait have contributed to the widespread intrusion of “corrosive acidified” waters into the Arctic Ocean basins.In addition,the biological processes enhanced by the sea ice retreat and the ocean uptake of anthropogenic CO2 have significantly increased the extent of the affected area.

海冰厚度是重要的气候参数,是海冰变化的第三维特征.准确获得北极海冰厚度及其变化信息,不仅有助于开展北极乃至全球气候变化、环境变化、生态安全等研究,还对海洋资源开发、海上交通航运、极地考察等具有重要的现实意义.本文基于ICESat 及CryoSat-2 卫星测高数据,估算近十年来北极海冰厚度,并分析其时空变化特征.结果表明,研究期内北极多年平均海冰厚度为2.562 ± 0.894 m,其中多年冰多年
南大洋是全球海洋底层水的主要源地，跨等密度面的海水上涌是海洋中深层水返回海洋表面的重要途径，跨等密度面的海水通量控制着碳、热量和营养盐等物质的存储，对地球气候系统有重大影响。南大洋在纬向上不受陆地阻挡造就了全球唯一的绕极环流、也是全球流量最大的一只洋流南极绕极流，是促进太平洋、大西洋和印度洋之间的热量、水分和能量交换的“发动机”。根据南大洋等密度面露头的特点，利用广泛分布的Argo观测，计算南大洋
