Phytoplankton Phenology in the North Atlantic: Insights From Profiling Float Measurements

Phytoplankton division rate (μ), loss rate (l), and specific accumulation rate (r) were calculated using Chlorophyll-a (Chl) and phytoplankton carbon (Cphyto) derived from bio-optical measurements on 12 Argo profiling floats in a north-south section of the western North Atlantic Ocean (40° N to 60°...
