Chlorophyll-a (Chla) concentration data is one of the key parameters for the evaluation of water eutrophication and primary productivity. Compared with traditional monitoring methods, it has the advantages of quasi-real-time, largescale and long-term by using remote sensing data to retrieve Chla concentration data. Analyzing the temporal and spatial distribution of Chla concentration and its long time series changes will help relevant institutions to comprehensively evaluate and control the water environment. However, there is no consensus on the long-term change mechanism of Chla concentration in coastal waters. In this study, the Modis data from 2003 to 2009 was used to retrieve the Chla concentration data in the Bohai Sea and its temporal and spatial distribution characteristics were analyzed. In addition, the potential relationship between wind speed and Chla concentration was analyzed using Quick Scatterometer wind field data over the same time period. The results showed that there were different seasonality characteristics in different dynamic regions. The concentration of Chla was the lowest in summer in the Bohai Sea, and it showed an obvious interannual variation trend in summer and autumn in Laizhou Bay and Bohai Bay. The comparison results of wind speed and Chla showed that the seasonal changes of wind speed and Chla were consistent to some extent. It should be considered that the wind field of sea surface was one of the influencing factors of Chla change mechanism in the shallow sea ecological environment system.
The observations of marine aerosol over the Yellow Sea near Qingdao were carried out using a ship-borne scanning micro pulse lidar (SMPL) onboard the oceanographic research vessel, XIANGYANGHONG No.8 (XYH-08). The observation campaign including anchor point observation and sailing observation was conducted from September 13th to September 18th, 2015. We acquired observation data of sailing route including aerosol extinction coefficient, the temporal and spatial variation of aerosols and clouds, and the structure of boundary layer and so on. Through the function of 3-dimensional scanning, the SMPL also provided range-height indication (RHI) and plane-position indication (PPI) of observation signals which could well reflect the distribution of marine aerosol in different directions. From the change of aerosol extinction coefficient, we successfully captured a process of sea fog occurrence.
