  1. PREDICTION OF HYPERSPECTRAL IOPs ON THE WEST FLORIDA SHELF W. Paul Bissett Florida Environmental Research Institute John J. Walsh, Dwight A. Dieterle, and Jason Jolliff Department of Marine Science, University of South Florida

  2. Contributors to the Presentation • This work presented here is part of a larger program to predict Inherent and Apparent Optical Properties (IOPs and AOPs) in the coastal ocean (ONR HyCODE program) and the Ecology of Harmful Algal Blooms (ONR/NSF/NOAA/EPA ECOHAB). • Field data provided by – • R. Arnone, Naval Research Laboratory-Stennis Space Center • T. Hopkins & T. Sutton, University of South Florida • G. Kirkpatrick, Mote Marine Laboratory • S. Lohrenz, University of Southern Mississippi • R. Weisberg, University of South Florida

  3. Red Tides on the West Florida Shelf Gymnodinium breve Breve-toxin causes fish kills and respiratory ailments. In 1996, an extended G. breve bloom was implicated in the deaths of 149 manatees off west coast of Florida.

EcoSim 1.0 Review • four functional groups of phytoplankton • heterotrophic and chemolithic bacteria • two forms of dissolved organic carbon and nitrogen • spectral light (5 nm resolution) • differential (non-redfield) carbon and nitrogen cycling • grazing, sinking, and excretion • particulate remineralization • nitrification and nitrogen-fixation • surface gas exchange • colored dissolved organic carbon cycling

  7. EcoSim 2.0 Formulation • Transition from 1- to 3-dimensional coding. • Addition of phosphorous, silica, and iron as limiting nutrients. • All POM and DOM state variables are independent, allowing for “non-Redfield” stoichiometry. • Addition of 3 new phytoplankton functional groups. • Coastal diatoms, coastal dinoflagellates, and G. breve. • Living particulate detritus absorption addition to phytoplankton inherent optical properties (IOPs). • New CDOM cycling dynamics. • Color is now conserved and assumed to be recalcitrant to bacterial remediation. • Bottom boundary claims all fluxing particulate material. • Sediment chlorophyll a can be as high as overlying waters.

  8. EcoSim Light Model For each depth interval light attenuation c(l,t) = a(l,t) + b(l,t) absorption a(l,t) = awater(l) + aphyto(l) + aCDOM(l) + ased(l) scattering b(l,t) = bwater(l) + bphyto(l) + bCDOM(l) + bsed(l) backscattering bb(l,t) = bb,water(l) + bb,phyto(l) + bb,CDOM(l) + bb,sed(l) geometric structure of light md(l) = fxn[b(l,t),c(l ,t), m0(l)] diffuse light attenuation Kd(l) = [a(l,t) + bb(l ,t)]/md(l)] water leaving radiance to a satellite Lu(l) = fxn[a(l,t),b(l ,t), bb(l ,t),Ed(l,t), md(l), md(l), mu(l)]

  43. Summary • EcoSim 2.0 appears to generate reasonable IOP predictions across the West Florida Shelf in 1998. • But freshwater fluxes are critical to near-shore predictions of IOPs. • Reconstruction of phytoplankton absorption spectral from pigment specific absorption yields errors in the blue. • G. breve populations are minimal at all times during the year, including Loop Current intrusions. • Only way to get G. breve bloom is to increase nutrients without Si and reduce grazing. • Nitrogen-fixation may yield excess N, but is phosphorous limited in shelf waters.
