Sensitivity analysis of an ocean carbon cycle model in the North Atlantic: an investigation of parameters affecting the air-sea CO<sub>2</sub> flux, primary production and export of detritus
The sensitivity of the biological parameters in a nutrient-phytoplankton-zooplankton-detritus (NPZD) model in the calculation of the air-sea CO<sub>2</sub> flux, primary production and detrital export is analysed. We explore the effect on these outputs of variation in the values of the t...
