Iron from melting glaciers fuels the phytoplankton blooms in Amundsen Sea (Southern Ocean):Iron biogeochemistry

Dissolved iron (DFe) and total dissolvable Fe (TDFe) were measured in January-February 2009 in Pine Island Bay, as well as in the Pine Island and Amundsen polynyas (Amundsen Sea, Southern Ocean). Iron (Fe) has been shown to be a limiting nutrient for phytoplankton growth, even in the productive cont...
