Abstract:
Upwelling systems are significant sources of atmospheric nitrous oxide (N₂O). The Benguela Upwelling System is one of the most productive regions worldwide and a temporally variable source of N₂O. Strong O₂ depletions above the shelf are favoring periodically OMZ formations. We aimed to assess underlying N₂O production and consumption processes on different temporal and spatial scales during austral winter in the Benguela Upwelling System, when O₂-deficiency in the water column is relatively low.
The fieldwork took place during the cruise M157 (August 4ᵗʰ – September 16ᵗʰ 2019) onboard the R/V METEOR. This expedition included four close-coastal regions around Walvis Bay at 23°S, which presented the lowest O₂ concentrations near the seafloor and thus may provide hotspots of N₂O production. Seawater was collected in 10 L free-flow bottles by using a rosette system equipped with conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) sensors (SBE 911plus, Seabird-electronics, USA).
Concentrations of inorganic nutrients (PO₄³⁻, NH₄⁺, NO₃⁻, NO₂⁻, and SiO₂) were measured colorimetrically according to Grasshoff et al. (1999) by means of a continuous segmented flow analyzer (SEAL Analytical, QuAAtro39). To determine the water mass fractions along the sampling transects, vertical profiles were collected using a free-falling microstructure profiler (MSS90L, Sea & Sun Technology). Temperature, dissolved oxygen, and salinity were measured with a CTD system consisting of a SeaBird 911+ probe, mounted on a sampling rosette.
