| Simulation characteristics from eighteen global ocean–sea-ice coupled models are presented with a focus on the mean Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) and other related fields in the North Atlantic. These experiments use inter-annually varying atmospheric forcing data sets for the 60-year period from 1948 to 2007 and are performed as contributions to the second phase of the Coordinated Ocean-ice Reference Experiments (CORE-II). The protocol for conducting such CORE-II experiments is summarized. Despite using the same atmospheric forcing, the solutions show significant differences. As most models also differ from available observations, biases in the Labrador Sea region in upper-ocean potential temperature and salinity distributions, mixed... |

| Export of particulate matter out of the euphotic zone was measured in the southern Bay of Biscay in summer 1993 using shallow (50 m) sediment traps deployed for a short period in outer shelf waters. The sedimented material consisted of intact and degraded faecal pellets, diatom frustules, coccolithophorid cells, detached coccoliths and zooplankton remains. Measured vertical fluxes were 173-236 mg C m(-2) day(-1), 18-20 mg N m(-2) day(-1) and 3.8-4.5 mg C m(-2) day(-1), respectively for particulate organic carbon (POC), particulate organic nitrogen (PON) and particulate inorganic carbon (PIC). The downward flux of POC represented 24-37% of the estimated primary production. Export of PIC accounted for only 2% of the total carbon flux. A large proportion... |
