José Luis García García (Ph.D. student):Biogeochemical and microbial impacts of sub-mesoscale processes along the life history of mesoscale eddies in the Canary Eddy Corridor (e-IMPACT)
The project e-Impact aims at quantifying the contribution of sub-mesoscale processes associated with mesoscale cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies on the biological carbon pump in the Canary Eddy Corridor (North Atlantic Subtropical gyre). Mesoscale eddies are self-rotating coherent water bodies that can propagate long distances through the oceans, in many cases forming westward propagating eddy corridors.
