Abstract:
In 2012, anomalously warm ocean temperatures throughout the water column on the Scotian Shelf and eastern Gulf of Maine influenced the chemical and biological conditions of the region. Stratification was higher than average on the Scotian Shelf. At the Halifax-2 fixed station, upper water column (0-50 m) nitrate was lower than normal throughout 2012, while deep water (50-150 m) nitrate concentrations were much higher than normal, suggesting that stratification may have inhibited nutrient mixing into the upper water column. Deep water nitrate concentrations were also higher than average throughout most of the region. Spring bloom initiation timing at Halifax-2 was about average, and the bloom was average in magnitude but short in duration, but winter chlorophyll concentrations were higher than average. Satellite ocean color observations also indicated high winter chlorophyll concentrations and early and/or short spring bloom timing across much of the Scotian Shelf.  Although chlorophyll concentrations were about average following the spring bloom at Halifax-2, light attenuation was high, cell abundances were low, and diatoms and dinoflagellates were less relatively abundant and flagellates and ciliates more relatively abundant than normal, suggesting a shift to a smaller-sized phytoplankton community, possibly including higher than average concentrations of picoplankton. At the Prince-5 fixed station, the seasonal chlorophyll cycle was similar to normal, but chlorophyll values were higher than average in July and August, when chain forming diatoms (July) and dinoflagellates (August) were abundant. Satellite ocean colour indicated higher than average surface chlorophyll across the eastern Gulf of Maine in August and September.

Zooplankton biomass was very low at Halifax-2 throughout 2012, and it was also low on all shelf sections in fall. At Prince-5, zooplankton biomass was mostly low in the first half of the year but rebounded in the fall. At both fixed stations,Calanus finmarchicus abundances were low everywhere throughout 2012. C. finmarchicus production was likely impacted by its low abundance at the end of 2011 and high temperatures experienced by the dormant stock during the fall and winter of 2011/2012. At Halifax-2, a short phytoplankton bloom and low diatom abundance may have also contributed to low abundances of C. finmarchicus and Pseudocalanus spp. during 2012. Transient high abundances of small-particle-feeding zooplankton taxa (appendicularians, salps, pteropods) were observed both on the Scotian Shelf and at Prince-5. Cold-associated immigrant species (Arctic Calanus) were less abundant and warm offshore species generally more abundant than average in 2012, consistent with warmer temperatures and model estimates of changes in circulation. Overall, lower trophic level changes in 2012 suggest poor feeding conditions for planktivores on the Scotian Shelf, but the late summer-early fall bloom in the eastern Gulf of Maine and Bay of Fundy may have been favorable for some higher trophic level species.

Résumé:
Les températures anormalement chaudes sur toute la colonne d'eau observées en 2012 sur le plateau néo-écossais et dans l'est du golfe du Maine ont influencé les conditions chimiques et biologiques de la région. La stratification était plus élevée que la moyenne sur le plateau néo-écossais. À la station fixe Halifax-2, les concentrations de nitrate de surface (0 à 50 m) étaient inférieures à la normale tout au long de  2012, tandis que les concentrations de nitrate en profondeur (50 à 150 m) étaient beaucoup plus élevées que la normale, suggérant que la stratification pourrait avoir  inhibé le mélange de nitrate vers la surface. Les concentrations de nitrate  en profondeur étaient également plus élevées que la moyenne dans la majorité de la région. Le début de la période de floraison printanière à la station Halifax-2 correspondait à peu près à la moyenne, et la  floraison avait une  amplitude moyenne, mais une durée courte. Toutefois, les concentrations hivernales de chlorophylle étaient plus élevées que la moyenne. Les observations satellites de la couleur de l'océan indiquaient également des concentrations hivernales élevées de chlorophylle et une période de floraison printanière tôt ou courte dans une grande partie du plateau néo-écossais. Bien que les concentrations de chlorophylle se situaient dans la moyenne après la  floraison printanière à la station Halifax-2, l'atténuation de la lumière était élevée,  l'abondance de cellules étaient faibles, et les diatomées et les dinoflagellés étaient relativement moins abondants et les flagellés et les ciliés étaient relativement plus abondants que la normale,  suggérant une transition vers une communauté de petit phytoplancton, incluant possiblement des concentrations de picoplancton plus élevées que la moyenne. À la station fixe Prince-5, le cycle saisonnier de la chlorophylle était semblable à la normale, mais les valeurs de chlorophylle étaient plus élevées que la moyenne en juillet et août lorsque les diatomées (juillet) et les dinoflagellés (août) étaient abondants. Les données satellites sur la couleur de l'océan indiquaient la présence plus marquée que la moyenne de la chlorophylle à la surface dans l'est du golfe du Maine en août et septembre.

À la station Halifax-2, la biomasse du zooplancton était très faible tout au long de l'année 2012, et elle était également faible dans toutes les sections du plateau à l'automne. À la station Prince-5, la biomasse du zooplancton était surtout faible dans la première moitié de l'année, mais elle avait rebondi à l'automne. Aux deux stations fixes, l'abondance du Calanus finmarchicus était faible partout au cours de l'année 2012. La production de C. finmarchicus était vraisemblablement  affectée par sa faible abondance à la fin de l'année 2011 et  par l’effet des températures élevées sur la population dormante durant l'automne et l'hiver de 2011-2012. À la station Halifax-2, une courte période de  floraison du phytoplancton et une faible abondance des diatomées pourraient également avoir contribué aux faibles abondances de C. finmarchicus et de Pseudocalanus spp. au cours de 2012. Des concentrations temporaires  élevées de zooplancton se nourrissant de petites particules (appendiculaires, salpes, ptéropodes) ont été observées sur le plateau néo-écossais et à la station Prince-5. Les espèces immigrantes froides (Calanus arctique) étaient moins abondantes et les espèces extra-côtières chaudes étaient plus abondantes que la moyenne en 2012, ce qui correspond aux températures plus chaudes et aux estimations modélisées du changement dans la circulation. Dans l'ensemble, les changements aux niveaux trophiques inférieurs en 2012  suggèrent de mauvaises conditions alimentaires pour  la communauté planctivore sur le plateau néo-écossais, mais la prolifération tard dans l'été et au début de l'automne dans l'est du golfe du Maine et la baie de Fundy aurait pu être favorable pour certaines espèces de niveau trophique plus élevé.
