Color plate 19 The effect of transmontane winds across the narrow regions of central America (at the
Tehuantepec gap, over Lake Nicaragua and across the isthmus of Panama) on the chlorophyll field of the
eastern tropical Pacific derived from MODIS-Aqua data.

Color plate 20 Distribution of relative phytoplankton biomass derived from MODIS-Aqua data and the sea
surface temperature fronts shown diagrammatically in Fig. 12.01. Observe the prominence of the SSTC zone
and the complexity of the chlorophyll biomass pattern over and around the Falkland Plateau (see FKLD).
