Direct Evidence of Nutrient Upwelling and Phytoplankton Enhancement at a Continental Shelf Break

Abstract A long‐standing hypothesis postulates that the elevated productivity at continental shelf break regions is stimulated by enhanced nutrient supply to the surface sunlit depths, however, direct, quantitative evidence has been lacking. We tested this hypothesis with a set of high‐resolution ph...
