Seasonal variability of upper ocean primary production along the Kuroshio off Japan: Roles of eddy-driven nutrient transport

Seasonal variability of upper ocean primary production along the Kuroshio off Japan: Roles of eddy-driven nutrient transport

We assessed spatial and seasonal variabilities of eddy-driven vertical nutrient fluxes, which are essential for maintaining primary production in the upper ocean. A climatological model based on a Regional Oceanic Modeling System (Regional Oceanic Modeling System) coupled with a Nutrient Phytoplankt...
