Physicochemical controls on the initiation of phytoplankton bloom during the winter monsoon in the Arabian Sea
Abstract Occurrence of phytoplankton bloom in the northern Arabian Sea (NAS) during the winter monsoon is perplexing. The convective mixing leads to a deeper and well-oxygenated (> 95% saturation) mixed layer. We encountered low chlorophyll conditions though the nutrient conditions were favorable...
