Journal ArticleDOI
Eddy/Wind Interactions Stimulate Extraordinary Mid-Ocean Plankton Blooms
Dennis J. McGillicuddy,Laurence A. Anderson,Nicholas R. Bates,Thomas S. Bibby,Ken O. Buesseler,Craig A. Carlson,Cabell S. Davis,Courtney S. Ewart,Paul G. Falkowski,Sarah A. Goldthwait,Dennis A. Hansell,William J. Jenkins,Rodney J. Johnson,V. K. Kosnyrev,James R. Ledwell,Qian P. Li,David A. Siegel,Deborah K. Steinberg +17 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that, although plankton blooms occur in both cyclones and mode-water eddies, the biological responses differ, and they infer that the carbon export inferred from oxygen anomalies in eddy cores is one to three times as much as annual new production for the region.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overview of the US JGOFS Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS): a decade-scale look at ocean biology and biogeochemistry
Deborah K. Steinberg,Craig A. Carlson,Nicholas R. Bates,Rodney J. Johnson,Anthony F. Michaels,Anthony H. Knap +5 more
TL;DR: The Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) as mentioned in this paper has been used to study ocean biology and biogeochemistry over a decade at the BATS site, concentrating on seasonal and interannual changes in community structure, and the physical forcing and other factors controlling the temporal dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revisiting Carbon Flux Through the Ocean's Twilight Zone
Ken O. Buesseler,Carl H. Lamborg,Philip W. Boyd,Phoebe J. Lam,Thomas W. Trull,Robert R. Bidigare,James K. B. Bishop,James K. B. Bishop,Karen L. Casciotti,Frank Dehairs,Marc Elskens,Makio C. Honda,David M. Karl,David A. Siegel,Mary W. Silver,Deborah K. Steinberg,James R. Valdes,Benjamin A. S. Van Mooy,Stephanie E. Wilson +18 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used neutrally buoyant sediment traps to sample this chronically understudied realm, and measured a transfer efficiency of sinking particulate organic carbon between 150 and 500 meters of 20 and 50%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Upper Ocean Carbon Export and the Biological Pump
TL;DR: In this paper, Eppley and Peterson defined the ratio of new to total production as the f-ratio and showed that f was an asymptotic function of the magnitude of total production and provided both a means to define the efficiency of the biological pump quantitatively and a step toward quantifying the functioning of the pump on a global scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Zooplankton vertical migration and the active transport of dissolved organic and inorganic carbon in the Sargasso Sea
Deborah K. Steinberg,Craig A. Carlson,Nicholas R. Bates,Sarah A. Goldthwait,Laurence P. Madin,Anthony F. Michaels +5 more
TL;DR: This paper measured CO2 respiration and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) excretion by individual species of common vertically migrating zooplankton at the US JGOFS Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) station.
