Influence of Phytoplankton Advection on the Productivity Along the Atlantic Water Inflow to the Arctic Ocean

Influence of Phytoplankton Advection on the Productivity Along the Atlantic Water Inflow to the Arctic Ocean

Northwards flowing Atlantic waters transport heat, nutrients, and organic carbon in the form of zooplankton into the eastern Greenland Sea and Fram Strait. Less is known of the contribution of phytoplankton advection in this current, the Atlantic Water Inflow (AWI) spanning from the North Atlantic t...
