Bio-optical properties of the subtropical North Atlantic. II. Relevance to models of primary production

Based on measurements of phytoplankton biomass, absorption coefficients and photosynthetic performance obtained from samples collected in the subtropical Atlantic Ocean, standard sets of bio-optical parameters were selected and applied to a spectral model of primary production. Computed profiles of...
