The most oligotrophic subtropical zones of the global ocean: similarities and differences in terms of chlorophyll and yellow substance
The cores of the subtropical anticyclonic gyres are characterized by their oligotrophic status and minimal chlorophyll concentration, compared to that of the whole ocean. These zones are unambiguously detected by space borne ocean color sensors thanks to their typical spectral reflectance, which is...
