Upwelling and isolation in oxygen-depleted anticyclonic modewater eddies and implications for nitrate cycling

The temporal evolution of the physical and biogeochemical structure of an oxygen-depleted anticyclonic modewater eddy is investigated over a 2-month period using high-resolution glider and ship data. A weakly stratified eddy core (squared buoyancy frequency <i>N</i><sup>2</sup&g...
