Using the ECCO-Darwin data assimilative global-ocean biogeochemistry model to quantify the drivers and uncertainty of ocean carbon sources and sinks

This project will apply the Darwin ocean ecology model and ECCO-MITgcm estimates of ocean circulation to study the relationship between upper ocean community production, particulate organic carbon export fluxes, interior ocean remineralization, and biological carbon stores, and compare observations with biogeochemical budget computations.
