TL;DR: The findings of these 12 FeAXs reveal that iron supply exerts controls on the dynamics of plankton blooms, which in turn affect the biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen, silicon, and sulfur and ultimately influence the Earth climate system.
Journal ArticleDOI
The deepening of the wind-Mixed layer
TL;DR: In this article, a simple model is given that describes the response of the upper ocean to an imposed wind stress, which is taken to mix thoroughly a layer of depth h, and to erode the stably stratified fluid below.
Journal ArticleDOI
Southern Ocean deep-water carbon export enhanced by natural iron fertilization

TL;DR: Data from the CROZEX experiment in the Southern Ocean is reported to test the hypothesis that the observed north–south gradient in phytoplankton concentrations in the vicinity of the Crozet Islands is induced by natural iron fertilization that results in enhanced organic carbon flux to the deep ocean.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical controls on biogeochemical zonation in the Southern Ocean
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed to divide the Southern Ocean into three major zones: the Subantarctic Zone (SAZ), the Antarctic Transport Zone (ATZ), and the Subtropical Zone (SACCZ).
Journal ArticleDOI
Vivaldi 1991-A study of the formation, circulation and ventilation of Eastern North Atlantic Central Water
TL;DR: In this paper, a synoptic, hydrographic data set comprising 32 full depth CTD casts and 2500 CTD/SeaSoar profiles to 500 m is used to describe the θ/S properties and circulation of Central Water east of the mid-Atlantic Ridge and between 39°N and 54°N.
