Insignificant enhancement of export flux in the highly productive subtropical front, east of New Zealand: a high resolution study of particle export fluxes based on <sup>234</sup>Th: <sup>238</sup>U disequilibria
We evaluated the export fluxes of Particulate Organic Carbon (POC) in the Subtropical Frontal zone (STF) of the SW Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean. The site is characterized by enhanced primary productivity, which has been suggested to be stimulated through so-called natural iron fertilization...
