9311312 BIDIGARE The northern Arabian Sea exhibits regular, predictable oscillations in phytoplankton biomass and production driven by monsoonal atmospheric forcing. In this project, the principal investigator will characterize phytoplankton pigment distributions during the Arabian Sea Process Study (ASPS) using state-of-the-art high- performance liquid chromatography (HLPC) methods. There are four major research objectives. Seasonal and spatial pigment data will be used (1) to document phytoplankton biomass (as chlorophyll-a) and species composition of pigments and other variables and (4) use the model to estimate time-and-depth-dependent rates of primary production. This work will complement the efforts of other ASPS investigators studying phytoplankton dynamics both by water column sampling and via satellite imagery.

在季风大气强迫的驱动下，阿拉伯海北部浮游植物的生物量和产量表现出规律的、可预测的振荡。在这个项目中，首席研究员将使用最先进的高效液相色谱（HLPC）方法表征阿拉伯海过程研究（asp）期间浮游植物色素的分布。有四个主要的研究目标。季节和空间色素数据将用于(1)记录浮游植物生物量（如叶绿素-a）、色素种类组成和其他变量；(4)使用该模型来估计依赖于时间和深度的初级生产速率。这项工作将补充其他通过水柱采样和卫星图像研究浮游植物动力学的研究人员的努力。
