Rhines abstract06-31881This award supports preparation of a research monograph summarizing results from the Arctic-Subarctic Ocean Flux program (ASOF). This study of the oceanic climate and climate change of the Arctic-Subarctic region is a large, international effort that is a key component of global climate studies. The most basic dynamic balances of the global overturning circulation of the oceans are under debate. Global change may alter theoverturning circulation and with it, global climate and ecosystems. High resolution climate observations with radically new platforms, sustained in time, can guide the numerical climate models which are increasingly relied upon in matters of policy and planning. Beyond physical science, this ASOF has implications to ecosystems in one of the most biologically productive sites on Earth, and a region of strong uptake of carbon from the atmosphere. The work will provide bio-optical profiles and sections at high resolution in regions of unusually high biological productivity. The interdependence of fisheries and physical oceanography in this region is extremely strong, as primary productivity is associated with buoyant, low-salinity layers which trap phytoplankton.

Rhines Abstract06-31881 This Award支持准备一项研究专着的准备，总结了北极 - 果巨头海洋通量计划（ASOF）的结果。这项对北极 - 果区域海洋气候变化和气候变化的研究是一项庞大的国际努力，是全球气候研究的关键组成部分。全球推翻海洋循环的最基本动态平衡正在争论中。全球变化可能会改变盘旋循环，并随着它的全球气候和生态系统而改变。及时维持的具有根本新平台的高分辨率气候观察可以指导数值气候模型，这些模型越来越依赖于政策和计划问题。 除了物理科学之外，这种ASOF对地球上生物生产最高的地点之一的生态系统具有影响，并且是从大气中强烈吸收碳的区域。这项工作将在异常高的生物学生产力地区高分辨率下提供生物光学概况和部分。该地区渔业和物理海洋学的相互依赖性非常强大，因为主要生产力与浮游浮游生物的浮力，低含量层有关。
