dynamics. Application of this approach to other major ocean systems will inevitably result in significant new insights ecosystem dynamics. This satellite-based
assessment of phytoplankton loss rates (l), unfortunately does not distinguish
grazing losses from other losses, such as carbon export. For processes such as
export that are multiple levels removed from remotely sensed properties, we have
to continue relying heavily on the integration of satellite data with mechanistic
ocean ecosystems models.
