Low dissolved Fe and the absence of diatom blooms in remote Pacific waters of the Southern Ocean

The remote waters of the Pacific region of the Southern Ocean are the furthest away from any upstream and upwind continental Fe sources. This prime area for expecting Fe limitation of the plankton ecosystem was studied (March-April 1995) along a north-south transect at similar to 89 degrees W. At th...
