摘      要：Measured concentrations of dissolved oxygen,phosphate,silicate,total alkalinity and calculated totalCO2 in a section between 121°E and 125°E across the Kuroshio near 22°N off Taiwan and thegeostrophic velocity were used to estimate the gross transport of oxygen,nutrients and carbonates. The flux of dissolved oxygen is 6.7×106 mol/s northward and 0.9×106 mol/s *** netflux equals 5.8×106 mol/s *** northward flux of phosphate is 22.6×103 mol/s;the south-ward flux is 1.4×103 mol/*** net phosphate flux is 21.2×103 mol/s *** flux of silicateis 967×103 northward and 59×103 mol/s southward;the net transport is 908×103 mol/s *** flux of alkalinity is 75.5×106 mol/s northward,and 10.8×106 mol/s southward,the net flux is64.7×106 mol/s *** total CO2 the transport is 73.4×106 mol/s northward and 10.8×106 mol/ssouthward,or a net transport of 62.6×106 mol/s northward.
