Multi-decadal variability of sea surface temperature and phytoplankton in the subpolar North Atlantic : insights from observation and model

This thesis investigates the physical controls of variability in phytoplankton abundance in the subpolar North Atlantic. A multi-decadal set of monthly SST data (HadISST1) is used to identify the dominant variability in the SST annual cycle during the period 1870-2009. Long-term variability in phyto...
