摘　　要：利用2003—2009年AMSR-E日平均海冰密集度数据,对南极普里兹湾埃默里冰架前缘中西部的麦肯齐湾冰间湖进行了分析。针对冰架前缘冰间湖的特点,本文在阈值法和连通域法的基础上,提出了生长点法作为识别此类冰间湖的方法。研究发现,该冰间湖的开始时间为每年的3月中下旬,结束时间为每年的10月末到11月初,平均出现天数为226d。冰间湖的面积每天都发生变化,表现出天气尺度的变化特征。全年累计的冰间湖面积平均为(8.33±1.55)×105 km2。冰间湖最大面积为1.69×104 km2,出现在2004年。结合NCEP再分析数据中的日平均风速资料的分析发现,在6～8月,冰间湖的天气尺度变化主要是受风场的影响,冰间湖面积与离岸风速有很好的相关性。The Mackenzie Bay polynya at the western and central front of the Amery Ice Shelf in the Pry- dz Bay was studied by using daily AMSR-E sea ice concentration data from 2003 to 2009. According to the characteristics of the polynya at the front of the ice shelf, growing point method was proposed to identify such polynya based on threshold method and connected domain method. The study indicated that this po- lynya appeared in late March and ended in late October or early November each year, and the mean open- ing period was 226 days. Daily changed polynya area showed varied characteristics on synoptic scale. The mean annually accumulative polynya area was （8. 33±1.55）×105km2. The polynya maximum area was 1.69× 104 km2;which occured in 2004. Combined with daily NCEP reanalysis wind .data, our analysis showed that the wind was a major cause for the synoptic variation of the polynya, for there was high cor- relation between polynya area and offshore wind speed from June to August.
