Abstract:
The Biogeochemical-Argo (BGC-Argo) Program aims at operating a network of profiling floats equipped with sensors of key biogeochemical variables for supporting research activities that address impacts of changing climate on ocean biogeochemical cycles and ecosystems. In the Western Pacific, a total of 24 BGC-Argo floats have been deployed during the last several years. In this talk, I will show examples of using BGC-Argo floats and coupled physical-biogeochemical models to investigate how synoptical events (typhoons, winter and dust storms) and mesoscale eddies affect upper ocean biogeochemical processes. We also use a coupled physical-biogeochemical model based on ROMS-CoSiNE to address how large-scale climate variability (ENSO and PDO) affect nutrient and plankton dynamics in the Western Pacific Ocean.
