TL;DR: The third primary production algorithm round robin (PPARR3) as discussed by the authors compares output from 24 models that estimate depth-integrated primary production from satellite measurements of ocean color, as well as seven general circulation models (GCMs) coupled with ecosystem or biogeochemical models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of potential productivity in Eastern Boundary Currents using remote sensing
TL;DR: In this paper, a satellite-based estimate of potential primary production in the four Eastern Boundary Currents (EBCs), i.e., the California, Humboldt, Canary, and Benguela currents, from the first 24 months of the Sea-Viewing Wide Field of View Sensor, SeaWiFS, was provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a new hydrographic and nutrient climatology together with satellite measurements of the wind vector, sea surface temperature (SST), chlorophyll concentration, and primary production modeled from ocean color to quantify the meridional and seasonal patterns of upwelling dynamics and biological response.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The authors compare satellite ocean color-based models (SatPPMs) and those generated from biogeochemical ocean general circulation models (BOGCMs) to a tropical Pacific primary productivity (PP) database consisting of ∼ 1000 14C measurements spanning more than a decade (1983-1996).
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Turbulence Kinetic Energy Dissipation Rate Estimates from Two Ocean Microstructure Profilers
TL;DR: In this article, almost 1000 microstructure profiles from two separate groups on two separate ships using different instrumentation, signal processing, and calibration procedures were compared for a 3.5-day time period at 0°, 140°W and within 11 km of each other.
