Vertical nitrate fluxes in the Arctic Ocean

This flux is called export production. In this way, the world ocean is partitioned into a photic, nutrient ...

Global warming
... Another important feedback process is ice-albedo feedback. When global temperatures increase, ice near the poles melts at an increasing rate. As the ice melts, land or open water takes its place. Both land and open water are on average less reflective than ice, and thus absorb more solar radiation. ...
