Abstract
The carbon capture and storage in the coastal shallow ecosystem is a hot topic because of its high potential. The release and uptake of atmospheric CO2 at the air-sea boundary is an important element consisting the series of carbon capture and storage of the shallow waters. In this study, we applied an ecosystem model, EMAGIN_B.C., considering carbonate chemistry, food-web, and Carbon-Nutrients-Oxygen cycling in the benthic-pelagic coupled system to Tokyo Bay, and analyzed the dynamics of air-sea CO2 flux and its factors especially focusing on the river mouth area. As the result of the model analysis, CO2 was released from the ocean to air at the river mouth area on an annual average basis, although CO2 was taken up at other areas in Tokyo Bay. In addition, the CO2 release and CO2 uptake are repeated in the period from the end of April to the end of November. The CO2 absorption period is thought to be dominated by the consumption of DIC by photosynthesis, and the release period is thought to be dominated by consumption of total alkalinity by nitrification.
