Primary productivity and its variability in the Atlantic Southern ocean

Includes bibliographical references. The two principal bottom-up drivers of the High Nutrient Low Chlorophyll (HNLC) characteristics of the Southern Ocean are light and nutrient (mainly dissolved iron) limitation ( Boyd , 2002; Mitchell et al., 1991), which have varying limiting roles over the growi...
