The Advent of the Spring Bloom in the Eastern Subarctic Pacific Ocean
The spring phytoplankton bloom in the eastern subarctic Pacific Ocean was described from estimations of the critical depth and the depth of the mixed layer. The results suggested that the spring bloom begins during February in the area south of 45°N and east of 135°W. During March the bloom area adv...
