為探討亞洲沙塵暴 (The Asian dust storm)如何影響黑潮海域有 機碳循環的生成與變動，本研究在 2006 年三月沙塵暴可能侵襲期
的葉綠素甲濃度 (0.50 ± 0.16 mg Chl m-3)及初級生產力 (9.95 ± 4.73
因受到沙塵暴來襲有大量生長的情形，其生物量約佔POC的 76 %。
二氧化碳重新被釋放於環境中，可惜此推論並無相關群聚呼吸率資料 可供佐證。至於在沙塵暴期間被固定下來的有機碳有多少能沉降至深 海或藉由食物鍊傳遞保存於較高食階的生物中，甚至解答沙塵暴是否 具有緩和全球暖化的能力，仍有待後續研究集合更多方面的資料 (如：原生動物、浮游動物、水氣碳通量變化…等)以資進一步分析探 討。
