A biogeochemical study in the Bellingshausen Sea:Overview of the STERNA 1992 expedition

A general overview and background of a two-ship study to examine biogeochemical fluxes in the marginal ice-zone of the Bellingshausen Sea (65-70°S; 80-87°W), SE Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean is presented. The major feature studied was an intense band of chlorophyll that was found geographical...
