This paper reviews progress on understanding biological carbon sequestration in the ocean
with special reference to the microbial formation and transformation of recalcitrant dissolved …

In addition to the striking beauty inherent in their complex nature, fractals have become a
fundamental ingredient of nonlinear dynamics and chaos theory since they were defined in …

This book presents an in-depth discussion of the biological and ecological geography of the
oceans. It synthesizes locally restricted studies of the ocean to generate a global geography …

Like all the major upwelling regions, the Canary Current is characterised by intense
mesoscale structure in the transition zone between the cool, nutrient-rich waters of the …

Explanations for the patchy distribution of marine phytoplankton are critically reviewed with
the focus on the role played by lateral advection and mixing. Generating mechanisms for …

In the four major Eastern Boundary Upwelling Systems (EBUS), mesoscale eddies are
known to modulate the biological productivity and transport near‐coastal seawater …

In the context of the iron hypothesis, the biogeochemical characteristics of the water masses
located in the N–E wake of the Kerguelen archipelago were studied in austral spring 1995 …

Ocean acidification, the change in seawater carbonate chemistry due to the uptake of
anthropogenic CO2, affects the physiology of marine organisms in multiple ways. Diverse …

We report, from remote sensing and in situ observations, a new type of permanent structure
in the eastern subtropical Atlantic Ocean, that we call the “Canary Eddy Corridor”. The …

Abstract Seventeen years (1998–2014) of satellite-derived chlorophyll concentration (Chl)
are used to analyse the seasonal and non-seasonal patterns of Chl variability and the long …
