Spatial variation in satellite-based estimates of primary productivity across the Northeast Pacific subarctic-subtropical front
(2009-02-23)
This study compared satellite and ship-based measurements of net primary productivity in the Northeast Pacific Ocean. In general, chlorophyll observations showed the greatest variance between the two sets of observations. Measuring NPP is of critical importance to determining how much carbon dioxide may be sequestered in the ...
Anthropogenic CO2 accumulation in the North Pacific Ocean from changes in C/12C of dissolved inorganic carbon
(2009-02-23)
Carbon stable isotope data in the Northeast Pacific Ocean was used to track the uptake of anthropogenic carbon dioxide. There are suggestions that the Northeast Pacific has weakened as a sink for anthropogenic carbon dioxide, but further study is needed.
