●常钦 谈论深海时，你脑海中浮现的是什么？是幽暗无光的深渊，还是神秘未知的生物？ 对于自然资源部中国地质调查局广州海洋地质调查局"海洋地质六号"科考船来说，深海更像是一座巨大 的、待解读的"地质档案馆"。2025年12月1日，这艘科考船在历时95天、航行12673海里后，带着太平洋 深处的秘密，顺利返航靠泊广州南沙科考码头。此次科考取得多项重要科学成果，并正式对外发布。 这次出远门，科学家们带回了令人惊叹的"特产"——沉睡海底3000万年的多金属结核，还"顺便"给地球 深部做了一次"CT扫描"。 让我们一起登上这艘船，看看太平洋几千米深处的独特风景。 海底"黑土豆" 记录3000万年深海环境变迁 看清海底50公里下"冷热交锋" 除了捡"土豆"，这次科考的硬核成果之一，是给地球做了一次深层"体检"。科考团队将一套自主研发的 电磁测量设备投放到7663米的深海，创下目前国内最深的电磁剖面测量纪录。 为什么要费尽周折把设备放到那么深的地方？ 在这次航行中，最引人注目的首先是"探险队员"的升级。以往的深海调查，往往依赖单一设备单打独 斗。这一次，中国科学家在太平洋深水区上演了一场精彩的"机甲配合战"。 这是国内首次让 ...

尽管有了思想准备，但是等到真正进入了气旋的影响范围后，其威力之大，又超出所有人的意料。 央视网消息：关注中国第42次南极考察的消息。目前，"雪龙"号正在阿蒙森海区域进行大洋作业，开展包括CTD（温盐深仪）投放、磷虾拖网、中层鱼 拖网等作业。截至目前，"雪龙"号大洋队已经完成了八个站位的考察任务。而整个大洋作业期间，考察队将在阿蒙森海以及罗斯海区域进行超过20个站位的 大洋作业。 抵达作业区前 "雪龙"号遭遇强气旋袭击 "雪龙"号在新西兰完成物资补给以及人员更替后，开始准备向南穿越西风带。但是在南纬63度附近，遭遇了一次强气旋的袭击。随船总台央视记者，也 用镜头记录下了"雪龙"号遭遇的巨大颠簸。 五楼会议室里，两排座椅几乎全部倒下了。不过，这可不是人为放倒的，而是被晃倒的。在驾驶台，记者也用镜头记录下了在巨大涌浪的冲击下"雪 龙"号左右大幅摇摆的情形。 中国第42次南极考察队"雪龙"号船长 朱兵：这次涌浪还是比较大的。五到六米的涌高，风速九级风，有一次（倾斜仪）已经超过25度，到达30度了。 此前根据气象预报，在第三次穿越西风带的时候，"雪龙"号会遭遇到一个大气旋。 中国第42次南极考察队"雪龙"号综合队队员 ...

中国极地研究中心自然资源部极地科学重点实验室极地气—冰—海相互作用研究团队一项对北冰洋 巴伦支海—喀拉海区域内潮动力学的研究，打破了学界对喀拉海峡附近海洋动力过程的传统认知，为深 入理解北极潮汐混合机制提供了全新视角。该研究成果近日在国际期刊发表。 巴伦支海—喀拉海区域是北极海冰变化的敏感核心区域，也是北冰洋大西洋化的前哨区域，同时还 是影响东亚乃至北半球气候变化的关键区域之一。其中，喀拉海峡不仅是该区域海冰输运与能量传递的 核心枢纽，更是北极东北航道的重要节点，具有突出的科研价值与意义。喀拉海峡由于地形复杂且潮汐 活动强盛，成为海洋内波的活跃区域。海洋内波可通过驱动海水垂向混合，调控海洋热收支平衡，进而 影响海冰变化，还能通过改变海—气热量交换过程作用于大气环流，最终对欧亚中高纬度的天气与气候 产生影响。此外，内潮分裂所激发的大振幅内孤立波，还可能对北极航道的通航环境构成潜在威胁。当 前，针对喀拉海峡内波的研究仍较为匮乏，这制约了北极航道的安全规划与运营。 该团队的研究结果显示，该海区中瓦伊加奇岛的陆坡区域是另一处重要的内潮生成源，且其能量强 度甚至超过了海峡中部区域。背景环流将内潮限制在瓦伊加奇岛陆坡外侧 ...
