The influence of iron and light on net community production in the Subantarctic and Polar Frontal Zones

The roles of iron and light in controlling biomass and primary productivity are clearly established in the Southern Ocean. However, their influence on net community production (NCP) and carbon export remains to be quantified. To improve our understanding
