Journal ArticleDOI
A general view of the hydrographic and dynamical patterns of the Rías Baixas adjacent sea area
TL;DR: The hydrography and dynamics of the Rias Baixas adjacent shelf region is reviewed in this article with the aim to serve as a general ‘state-of-the-art’ reference and to help introduce several topic-related articles in this special volume.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photosynthetic electron turnover in the tropical and subtropical Atlantic Ocean
David J. Suggett,C. Mark Moore,C. Mark Moore,Emilio Marañón,Claudia Omachi,Ramiro A. Varela,Jim Aiken,Patrick M. Holligan +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determined photosynthetic electron turnover rates, ETRs, from ca. 100 FRR fluorescence water-column profiles throughout the subtropical and tropical Atlantic during six Atlantic Meridional Transect cruises (AMT 6, May-June 1998, to AMT 11, September-October 2000).
Journal ArticleDOI
Residual circulation and thermohaline distribution of the Ría de Vigo: A 3-D hydrodynamical model
TL;DR: In this paper, a three-dimensional, non-linear, baroclinic model is described and tested to study the residual circulation and the thermohaline distribution of the Ria de Vigo (NW Spain) at short time scales and under different wind stress regimes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial analysis of the wind field on the western coast of Galicia (NW Spain) from in situ measurements
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used wind data measured at six meteorological stations to study their spatial representativity on atmosphere-ocean interactions along the western shelf of Galicia and inside the Ria of Vigo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Latitudinal distribution of microbial plankton abundance, production, and respiration in the Equatorial Atlantic in autumn 2000
Valesca Pérez,Emilio Fernández,Emilio Marañón,Pablo Serret,Ramiro A. Varela,Antonio Bode,Manuel Varela,Marta M. Varela,Xosé Anxelu G. Morán,E. Malcolm S. Woodward,Vassilis Kitidis,Carlos García-Soto +11 more
TL;DR: The equatorial upwelling did not alter the phytoplankton size structure typically found in the tropical open ocean, which suggests a strong top-down control of primary producers by zooplank ton, and the entire region under study showed net autotrophic community.
