Abstract
Net community production (NCP) was determined usingin-situoxygen measurements from Argo profiling floats with an upper water column oxygen mass balance model. In the subtropical Pacific Ocean the annual NCP (ANCP) was determined to be from 2.0 to 2.4 mol C m-2yr-1in the western subtropical North Pacific, 2.4 mol C m-2yr-1in the eastern subtropical North Pacific, and near zero in the South Pacific. The same approach was applied to the float data from Ocean Station Papa (OSP) in the subarctic North Pacific, to study the NCP variation from 2013 to 2015 when strong positive temperature anomaly was observed in the Northeast Pacific (the “blob”). ANCP at OSP was determined to be 2.4, 1.0, and 3.2 mol C m-2yr-1for year 2013, 2014, and 2015, respectively. Summer NCP rates in the mixed layer remained relatively consistent for these three years (12.5‒14.8 mmol C m-2d-1), so the decline of ANCP in 2014 is probably due to enhanced respiration in the winter of this year.
