The limitation of iron (Fe) makes the North Pacific a typically high-nitrate, low-chlorophyll (HNLC) region in comparison with other oceanic regions of the world. Iron inputs from land via river discharge and atmospheric dust deposition are the primary processes introducing Fe into the ocean. Also,...
