Always ready? Primary production of Arctic phytoplankton at the end of the polar night
Abstract The end of the polar night with the concurrent onset of photosynthetic biomass production ultimately leads to the spring bloom, which represents the most important event of primary production for the Arctic marine ecosystem. This dataset shows, for the first time, significant in situ biomas...
