TL;DR: This database is limited spatially, lacking large regions of the ocean especially in the Indian Ocean, but can nevertheless be used to study spatial and temporal distributions and variations of marine N2 fixation, to validate geochemical estimates and to parameterize and validate biogeochemical models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Latitudinal distribution of diazotrophs and their nitrogen fixation in the tropical and subtropical western North Pacific
TL;DR: The distribution of the diazotrophs and their N2 fixation activity may be controlled by the supply of phosphate and aeolian dust deposition and higher activity was observed between the Kuroshio Extension and the salinity front in the North Equatorial Current than in the neighboring areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
New estimation of N2 fixation in the western and central Pacific Ocean and its marginal seas
Takuhei Shiozaki,Ken Furuya,Taketoshi Kodama,Satoshi Kitajima,Shigenobu Takeda,Shigenobu Takeda,Toshihiko Takemura,Jota Kanda +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the distribution of N2 fixation was examined using a 15N2 tracer with accompanying measurements of abundance of Trichodesmium spp and Richelia intracellularis, nitrate plus nitrite (N+N) and soluble reactive phosphorus at the nanomolar level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macro-scale exhaustion of surface phosphate by dinitrogen fixation in the western North Pacific
Fuminori Hashihama,Ken Furuya,Satoshi Kitajima,Shigenobu Takeda,Toshihiko Takemura,Jota Kanda +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied a highly sensitive method to the surface water of the western and central Pacific between 42°N and 40°S and between 141°E and 158°W except in the equatorial zone, and detected overall depletion of nitrate + nitrite and an excess of SRP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advective transport of diazotrophs and importance of their nitrogen fixation on new and primary production in the western Pacific warm pool
TL;DR: Time-series revealed that advective transport of diazotrophs played a critical role in stimulating new and primary production and changed the nutrient inventory.
