The large-scale impact of offshore wind farm structures on pelagic primary productivity in the southern North Sea (2017, methodology): “The comparison by van Leeuwen et al (2013) with in situ observation derived NPP estimates by Weston (2005), however, also showed that their model under-or overestimates observations by a factor of two depending on the area type (stratiﬁed, frontal bank), and overestimated surface mixed layer…”
Sub-surface hotspots in shallow seas: fine-scale limited locations of top predator foraging habitat indicated by tidal mixing and sub-surface chlorophyll (2010, background): “…class of spatially important location, with subsurface chlorophyll characteristics that are not readily identifiable from surface characteristics (Weston et al. 2005), yet they may play a critical role in trophic coupling within regions of stratified water in shallow seas and need to be…”
Phytoplankton motility and the competition for nutrients in the thermocline (2007, result): “…mixing resulted in high DIN fluxes from the BML into the thermocline, which, together with a constantly high surface irradiance, led to these high growth rates, which are comparable to but still slightly higher than estimates for the North Sea (Richardson et al. 2000, Weston et al. 2005).”
Potential impacts of the spring-neap tidal cycle on shelf sea primary production. (2007, background): “Subsurface growth of phytoplankton during the summer, while having typically lower biomass concentrations than the spring bloom, often has high f-ratios (Probyn et al., 1995) and is an important source of organic carbon to the ecosystem, thought to be comparable to the spring bloom in terms of its c”
