Abstract:
Ocean conditions were unusually warm and stratified on the Scotian Shelf in 2012, and the plankton response to the physical environment in 2012 set the initial conditions for the plankton in 2013. In particular, zooplankton biomass and the abundance of the two dominant herbivorous copepod species, Calanus finmarchicus and Pseudocalanus spp., were low, and there appeared to be a shift to a smaller-size phytoplankton community on the Scotian Shelf. In 2013, annual average temperature anomalies were still positive in the Maritimes Region, but less so than in 2012, and temperature and stratification anomalies were marked by strong sub-annual and mesoscale variability. Variability in the physical environment was reflected in nutrient and plankton conditions. Annual average deep-water and winter surface nitrate inventories were similar to average overall, but surface nitrate was higher than average. The magnitude of the spring bloom chlorophyll peak was above average on the Eastern Scotian Shelf (ESS) and below average on the Western Scotian Shelf (WSS) and in the eastern Gulf of Maine, but summer-fall blooms were above average in all areas. Zooplankton biomass and abundance were lower than average on the eastern transects, but anomalies were mixed on the Central Scotian Shelf, ESS and Bay of Fundy. The abundance of Pseudocalanus spp. was higher than average in the central and western part of the region. Although C. finmarchicus abundance was variable and lower than average overall, it was high on the WSS and in the eastern Gulf of Maine during the summer ecosystem trawl survey and higher than average at the Halifax-2 station and in Emerald Basin in autumn, suggesting a return to more typical abundances in the western part of the region at the end of 2013. Similar to the broader Scotian Shelf, the 2013 Bedford Basin annual average temperature was warmer than normal but not as warm as 2012. Small phytoplankton were more abundant than average in Bedford Basin and large phytoplankton less abundant. An initial evaluation of relationships among annual anomalies of physical variables, nitrate, spring bloom metrics and zooplankton at Halifax-2 from 1999 to 2013 identified bloom duration and enhanced upwelling as important correlates of zooplankton biomass and dominant copepod abundance at an annual scale. Continuous Plankton Recorder sampling showed that observations of phytoplankton bloom dynamics and abundance of C. finmarchicus at Halifax-2 in 2012 were representative of shelf-wide patterns.

Résumé:
Les conditions océanographiques exceptionnellement chaudes et stratifiées observées sur le plateau néo-écossais en 2012 et la réponse du plancton à l'environnement physique de 2012 ont fixé les conditions initiales du plancton en 2013. En particulier, la biomasse de zooplancton et l'abondance des deux espèces dominantes de copépodes herbivores, Calanus finmarchicus et Pseudocalanus spp., étaient faibles et il a semblé y avoir un changement vers une communauté de phytoplancton de petite taille sur le plateau néo-écossais. En 2013, les anomalies annuelles moyennes de la température était toujours positives dans la région des Maritimes, mais moins prononcées qu’en 2012, et les anomalies de la température et de la stratification ont été marquées par une forte variabilité intra-annuelle et à l’échelle moyenne. La variabilité dans l'environnement physique s’est reflétée dans les conditions du nitrate et du plancton. L’inventaire de nitrate en profondeur et du nitrate de surface hivernal étaient similaires à la moyenne globale, mais le nitrate de surface était plus élevé que la moyenne. L'amplitude de la floraison printanière était supérieure à la moyenne dans la région est du plateau néo-écossais (ESS) et inférieure à la moyenne dans la région ouest du plateau néo-écossais (WSS) et dans l'est du golfe du Maine, mais la floraison d’été-automne était supérieure à la moyenne dans toutes les régions. La biomasse et l'abondance de zooplancton étaient inférieures à la moyenne sur les transects de la région est du plateau néo-écossais, mais des anomalies mixtes ont été observées sur les régions du centre et de l’est du plateau néo-écossais ainsi que dans la baie de Fundy. L'abondance de Pseudocalanus spp. était plus élevée que la moyenne dans les parties centrale et ouest de la région. Bien que l’abondance du C. finmarchicus était en général variable et inférieure à la moyenne, elle était élevée dans la région ouest du plateau néo-écossais et dans l'est du golfe du Maine lors des relevés d’été au chalut de fond et supérieure à la moyenne à la station Halifax-2 et dans le bassin Emerald à l'automne, suggérant un retour à des abondances types dans la partie ouest de la région à la fin de 2013. Similairement à la région du plateau néo-écossais, la température annuelle moyenne observée dans le bassin de Bedford en 2013 était supérieure à la normale, mais moins chaude qu’en 2012. Toujours dans le bassin de Bedford, l’abondance de phytoplancton de petite taille était supérieure à la moyenne tandis que celle du phytoplancton de grande taille y était inférieure. L’évaluation des relations entre les anomalies annuelles des variables physiques, du nitrate, des paramètres de la floraison printanière du phytoplancton et du zooplancton à la station Halifax-2 de 1999 à 2013 a permis d’identifier de fortes corrélations à l'échelle annuelle entre d’une part la durée de la floraison printanière et la remontée accrue d’eau et d’autre part la biomasse de zooplancton et de l'abondance des copépodes dominants. Les données d’échantillonnage à l’aide d’enregistreurs de plancton en continu ont permis de confirmer que les paramètres de la floraison printanière du phytoplancton et l’abondance du C. finmarchicus à la station Halifax-2 en 2012 étaient représentatifs des tendances observées à l’échelle du plateau.
