The motivation to study the vertical exchanges of tracers associated with mesoscale eddies
is that the mean concentration of most oceanic tracers changes rapidly with depth. Because …

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 …

The new edition of this widely respected text provides comprehensive and up-to-date
coverage of the effects of biological–physical interactions in the oceans from the microscopic …

Microorganisms likely mediate processes affecting the fate and impacts of marine plastic
pollution, including degradation, chemical adsorption, and colonization or ingestion by …

Substantial interannual variability in marine fish recruitment (ie, the number of young fish
entering a fishery each year) has been hypothesized to be related to whether the timing of …

Wind is the primary driver of the oceanic general circulation, yet the length scales at which
this energy transfer occurs are unknown. Using satellite data and a recent method to …

Metabolic activity in the water column below the euphotic zone is ultimately fuelled by the
vertical flux of organic material from the surface. Over time, the deep ocean is presumably at …

Oceanic submesoscale ageostrophic processes have been progressively recognized as an
important upwelling mechanism to close the nutrient budget and sustain the observed …

A nitrate‐based model of new production is incorporated into eddy‐resolving (0.1°)
simulations of the North Atlantic. The biological model consists of light and nutrient limited …

In plankton ecology, biological and physical dynamics are coupled, structuring how plankton
interact with their environment and other organisms. This interdisciplinary field has …
