Net community production in the North Atlantic Ocean derived from Volunteer Observing Ship data
The magnitude of marine plankton net community production (NCP) is indicative of both the biologically driven exchange of carbon dioxide between the atmosphere and the surface ocean and the export of organic carbon from the surface ocean to the ocean interior. In this study the seasonal variability in the NCP of five biogeochemical regions in the North Atlantic was determined from measurements ...
متن کاملUltraviolet radiation enhances Arctic net plankton community production
In this study we report the response of net community production (NCP) of plankton communities in the Arctic surface waters exposure to natural ultraviolet radiation (UVR) conditions. A possible bias in previous measurements performed using borosilicate glass bottles (opaque to most UVR) can underestimate NCP. Here we show that 77% of the sampled communities suffer, on average, 38.5% of net inc...
متن کاملOcean carbon cycling in the Indian Ocean: 2. Estimates of net community production
[1] The spatiotemporal variability of ocean carbon cycling and air-sea CO2 exchange in the Indian Ocean was examined using inorganic carbon data collected as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) cruises in 1995. Several carbon mass balance approaches were used to estimate rates of net community production (NCP) in the Indian Ocean. Carbon transports into and out of the Indian O...
متن کاملPredicting multi-year North Atlantic Ocean variability
24 We assess the skill of retrospective multi-year forecasts of North Atlantic ocean 25 characteristics obtained with ocean-atmosphere-sea ice models that are initialized with 26 estimates from the observed ocean state. We show that these multi-model forecasts can 27 skilfully predict surface and subsurface ocean variability with lead times of 2 to 9 years. We 28 focus on assessment of forecast...
متن کاملLarge-scale variability of planktonic net community metabolism in the Atlantic Ocean: importance of temporal changes in oligotrophic subtropical waters
We used the oxygen method (dark and light bottles) to study photic-layer-integrated microbial metabolism along a latitudinal transect in the Atlantic Ocean (50° S to 50° N) during May and October 1997. The temperate region was more productive than the other oceanic environments, showing a net autotrophic balance (gross primary production/total respiration, GPP/R = 1.41 ± 0.34; mean ± SE). The G...
