Formation Mechanisms and Characteristics of the Marine Nepheloid Layer: A Review
Marine nepheloid layer is widely distributed in the oceans and marginal seas. The concentration of suspended particles in the nepheloid layer is significantly higher than that of the adjacent layers. Marine nepheloid layers include the surface nepheloid layer (SNL), intermediate nepheloid layer (INL), and bottom nepheloid layer (BNL). As a transport pathway for the particulate matter in the oceans, nepheloid layer is important to the carbon cycle and the source–sink system at the continental margin. This paper focused on the characteristics of the marine nepheloid layer and the mechanism of internal solitary waves that form INL and BNL, providing a reference for further research on the marine ecological environment dynamic process and source–sink system. BNL is formed by suspended seabed sediments with strong currents near the bottom, but the fate of BNL remains unknown. Marine nepheloid layer significantly affects the transportation of materials within the ocean. The transport of sediments by ISWs dramatically affects the formation of deep seabed sedimentary landform. However, the formation process and the transport contribution of INL and BNL are still unclear. The systematic and long-term research on the marine nepheloid layer in the world oceans is still limited.
