摘要初步结果部署的SUV-6紫外分光光度计，集成的SeaSoar拖曳车，提出。这一创新的组合系统以高空间分辨率（垂直4米，水平5公里）、高灵敏度（0.2 μM）测量硝酸盐浓度，同时测量温度、盐度和溶解氧。作者证明，这种方法构成了一个强大的新工具，量化的中尺度和亚中尺度的垂直营养通量的真光层的作用，使用的测量结果从高分辨率的调查在冰岛盆地的涡偶极子在2007年夏天。
Abstract Initial results from a deployment of the SUV-6 ultraviolet spectrophotometer, integrated with the SeaSoar towed vehicle, are presented. The innovative, combined system measures nitrate concentration at high spatial resolution (4 m vertically, 5 km horizontally), high sensitivity (0.2 μM), and concomitantly with temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen. The authors demonstrate that this approach constitutes a powerful new tool for quantifying the role of mesoscale and submesoscale vertical nutrient fluxes to the euphotic zone, using measurements from a high-resolution survey of an eddy dipole in the Iceland Basin during the summer of 2007.
