Dissolved Organic Matter Cycling in the Coastal Upwelling System Off Central Peru During an “El Niño” Year

The Peruvian upwelling system (PUS) is among the most productive regions in the ocean, with high rates of primary production and an intense oxygen minimum zone (OMZ). The main perturbation of this system is associated to “El Niño” (EN), which affects water mass distribution and reduces primary produ...
