The subpolar North Atlantic (SPNA) Ocean has complex hydrography, and moderates the global climate through the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). The surface water mass dynamics in SPNA and the upper limb of AMOC, govern the plankton distribution. Specifically, the habitat of modern...
