Almost 1000 microstructure profiles from two separate groups on two separate ships using different instrumentation, signal processing, and calibration procedures were compared for a 3.5-day time period at 0°, 140°W and within 11 km of each other. Systematic bias in the estimates of ϵ is less than a factor of...
Time series of satellite measurements are used to describe patterns of surface
temperature and chlorophyll associated with the 1996 cold La Nina phase and the 1997-1998
warm El Nino phase of the El Nino - Southern Oscillation cycle in the upwelling region off
northern Chile. Surface temperature data are available...
The first three years of SeaWiFS data (1997-2000) provide the most complete quantification to date of chlorophyll seasonal variability along the full latitudinal extent of the four major eastern boundary currents (EBCs). Comparisons to previously published chlorophyll seasonal climatologies deduced from the relatively sparse coverage provided by the Coastal Zone...
