sampling program
- During March 1998-December 2001, 175 cruises of
R/V Eugenie Clark, Gyre, Suncoaster, Bellows, Sea
Diver, Walton Smith, and Pelican collected
extensive in situ data sets on hydrography,
turbidity, spectral dependence of absorption,
backscatter, water-leaving radiance, light
attenuation, Saharan dust, NO3, NO2, NH4, urea,
PO4, SiO4, Fe, DOP, DON, DIC, DOC, brevitoxins,
chlorophyll, phaeo-pigments, PN, PC, PP, del15N
of DON and PN, and counts of dominant
phytoplankton and mesozooplankton species in
relation to moored arrays of currents, T/S, and
bio-optical sensors, aircraft overflights, SF6
dispersion studies, underway sampling of plankton
particles and images, multi-beam bathymetric and
side-scan sonar surveys of the bottom, and
coupled 3-d biophysical models.

the innocula of settling diatoms and migrating K.

24Three-dimensional model of three functional groups
- A simple phytoplankton community of diatoms,
Karenia brevis, and microflagellates was provided
slope water supplies of NO3, NH4, CO2 DIC, and
SiO4 from a baroclinic version of POM -
estuarine and atmospheric sources of nutrients
were ignored. The circulation model was now
forced with winds, freshwater runoff and slope
boundary conditions of temperature and salinity,
as well as the presence/absence of a Loop Current
pressure gradient. With vertical stratification,
kz of M-Y was now a more realistic estimate of
vertical mixing. Other state variables were
spectral decomposition of PAR to blue and red
light, CDOM as a function of salinity, siliceous
fecal pellets of copepods, and non-siliceous ones
of protozoans. Benthic remineralization of
nutrients was simulated, with bioturbation as a
function of POMs near-bottom temperature field,
but accumulation of sediment microflora was
ignored. The maximal gross growth rates of each
functional group were also a function of
temperature. Ammonifying and nitrifying bacteria
were implicit variables. Finally, differential
grazing, respiration, and settling losses were
imposed, with density-dependent mortality of the
diatoms.
