This study evaluates the simultaneous occurrences of phytoplankton blooms, hypoxia, and upwelling along the Zhejiang coast in the East China Sea. Upwelling uplifted bottom water to bring phytoplankton blooms and hypoxia, increasing the threat to marine life. High concentrations of nitrate and phosphate in the hypoxic regions may enhance phytoplankton blooms and worsen hypoxia.
This study evaluates the rarely observed phenomenon of the simultaneous occurrences of phytoplankton blooms, hypoxia, and upwelling along the Zhejiang coast in the East China Sea. Results show that the upwelling uplifted bottom water to 5-10 m below the surface. In the upwelling region, phytoplankton blooms (Chl a = 10.9 mu g L-1) occurred and hypoxia or low-oxygen appeared below the surface water. High concentrations of nitrate and phosphate were regenerated in the hypoxic regions, corresponding with mean values (+/- SD) of 16.9 (+/- 1.5) and 0.90 (+/- 0.14) mu M, respectively. The upwelling expanded the region of hypoxic water, which nearly reached the surface, thereby increasing the threat to marine life. In addition to fluvial nutrients, the upwelling of water with high nutrient levels, especially phosphates, can enhance phytoplankton blooms. The results suggest that hypoxia can become more severe due to further decomposition of bloom-derived organic matter after blooms crash.
