Geographic Variation of Particle Size Distribution in the Kuroshio Region: Possible Causes in the Upper Water Column
Particle size distribution (PSD) in the ocean is a fundamental property that influences carbon export and food webs; however, PSD variation and its causes in oligotrophic oceans are not entirely clear. Here, we used Laser In-Situ Scattering and Transmissometry to investigate PSD (size range 5.2–119...
