Objective | Studying the variability of the equatorial surface and subsurface dynamics. Study of heat exchanges between the ocean and atmosphere in the equatorial zone. Studying carbon concentrations in order to understand the ocean's role in the greenhouse effect. Investigating primary production (chlorophyll and biomass) involved in the carbon cycle. Study of the variability of large-scale deep circulation. This falls under the CLIVAR-ECLAT project. |
