Tidal-induced mixing and diapycnal nutrient fluxes in the Mauritanian upwelli...
The Mauritanian coastal area is one of the most biologically productive upwelling regions in the world ocean. Shipboard observations carried out during maximum upwelling season... -
The organic sea-surface microlayer in the upwelling region off the coast of P...
The sea-surface microlayer (SML) is at the upper- most surface of the ocean, linking the hydrosphere with the atmosphere. The presence and enrichment of organic compounds in the... -
Biogenic composition of the sea-surface microlayer from a mesocosm study (Ber...
The sea-surface microlayer (SML) is the ocean's uppermost boundary to the atmosphere and in control of climate relevant processes like gas exchange and emission of marine... -
Dynamics of halocarbons in coastal surface waters during short term mesocosm ...
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of different light quality, especially ultraviolet radiation (UVR), on the dynamics of volatile halogenated organic... -
Grazing rates and body mass of Calanus finmarchicus and Calanus glacialis inc...
It is currently under debate whether organisms that regulate their acid-base status under environmental hypercapnia demand additional energy. This could impair animal fitness,... -
Halocarbons (water) measured during Maria S. Merian cruise MSM18/3
Halocarbons from oceanic sources contribute to halogens in the troposphere, and can be transported into the stratosphere where they take part in ozone depletion. This paper... -
Underway CH4 measurements during POSEIDON cruises POS320/1 and POS348
Coastal upwelling regions have been identified as sites of enhanced CH4 emissions to the atmosphere. The coastal upwelling area off Mauritania (NW Africa) is one of the most... -
Mixed layer heat and salinity budgets during the onset of the 2011 Atlantic c...
The mixed layer (ML) temperature and salinity changes in the central tropical Atlantic have been studied by a dedicated experiment (Cold Tongue Experiment (CTE)) carried out... -
Upper-ocean microstructure data from the tropical Atlantic
SST variability within the Atlantic cold tongue (ACT) region is of climatic relevance for the surrounding continents. A multi cruise data set of microstructure observations is... -
Gel particles in the sea-surface microlayer during an experimental study
Since the early 80's, the sea-surface microlayer (SML) has been hypothesized as being a gelatinous film. Recent studies have confirmed this characteristic, which confers... -
Long-term eddy-covariance measurements from FINO2 platform above the Baltic Sea
The estimation of the carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes above the open ocean plays an important role for the determination of the global carbon cycle. A frequently used method... -
Noble gases sampled from three cruises in the eastern tropical Atlantic
Oceanic upwelling velocities are too small to be measured directly. Deviations of the He-3/He-4 ratio in the mixed layer from solubility equilibrium provide an indirect means to... -
Noble gases sampled from three cruises in the eastern tropical Atlantic in Se...
Upwelling velocities w in the equatorial band are too small to be directly observed. Here, we apply a recently proposed indirect method, using the observed helium isotope (3He... -
Iron analysis in bottle profiles off Mauritania
Iron solubility measurements in the Mauritanian upwelling and the adjacent Open Ocean of the Tropical Atlantic show for all stations lower values in the surface mixed layer than...
