THE SEASONAL CYCLE OF SURFACE CHLOROPHYLL ALONG THE PERUVIAN COAST: COMPARISON BETWEEN SEAWIFS SATELLITE OBSERVATIONS AND DYNAMICAL/BIOGEOCHEMICAL COUPLED MODEL SIMULATIONS

The seasonal cycle of surface chlorophyll along the Peruvian coasts is studied with SeaWiFS satellite observations and coupled dynamical/biogeochemical ORCA/PISCES model simulations. The observed mean spatial structure of surface chlorophyll is shown to be in good agreement with that of the model. H...
