Consequences of Persistent Small-Scale Biological Structure on Upper Ocean Trophic Processes

Abstract

Our long-term goal is to quantify the interactions between small-scale biological and physical processes in the upper ocean. This project addresses that goal by examining the coherence in the distribution and variability of small-scale bio-optical properties with coincident spatial and temporal scales of physical properties and processes.
