Mechanisms controlling primary and new production in a global ecosystem model – Part I: Validation of the biological simulation

A global general circulation model coupled to a simple six-compartment ecosystem model is used to study the extent to which global variability in primary and export production can be realistically predicted on the basis of advanced parameterizations of upper mixed layer physics, without recourse to...
