attribute	NC_GLOBAL	projects_0_description	String	The original title of this project from the NSF award is: Collaborative Research: Impacts of Eddies and Mixing on Plankton Community Structure and Biogeochemical Cycling in the Sargasso Sea". Prior results have documented eddy-driven transport of nutrients into the euphotic zone and the associated accumulation of chlorophyll. However, several key aspects of mesoscale upwelling events remain unresolved by the extant database, including: (1) phytoplankton physiological response, (2) changes in community structure, (3) impact on export out of the euphotic zone, (4) rates of mixing between the surface mixed layer and the base of the euphotic zone, and (5) implications for biogeochemistry and differential cycling of carbon and associated bioactive elements. This leads to the following hypotheses concerning the complex, non-linear biological regulation of elemental cycling in the ocean: H1: Eddy-induced upwelling, in combination with diapycnal mixing in the upper ocean, introduces new nutrients into the euphotic zone. H2: The increase in inorganic nutrients stimulates a physiological response within the phytoplankton community. H3: Differing physiological responses of the various species bring about a shift in community structure. H4: Changes in community structure lead to increases in export from, and changes in biogeochemical cycling within, the upper ocean. Publications Andrews, J.E., Hartin, C., and Buesseler, K.O..
