Resolving satellite-in situ mismatches in Net Primary Production using high-frequency in situ bio-optical observations in the subpolar Northwest Atlantic
The episode discusses a paper resolving satellite-in situ mismatches in Net Primary Production using high-frequency bio-optical observations in the subpolar Northwest Atlantic. The hosts discuss how current satellite estimates overestimate productivity by a factor of two point five to four, pointing to flaws in global models that fail to account for depth and time variations. The research advocates for moving toward localized, regionally tuned models.
