2 Isolated Vortices Isolated vortices (IVs) are formed via numerous processes including: - Direct generation by wind - Shedding from topography - Instability of wind- and thermallydriven circulations (western boundary currents and other jets) - Localized convection (2 nd baroclinic mode eddies) Examples of IVs include rings and eddies
3 Examples of Isolated Vortices Wind Generation Current-Topography Interactions Circulation Instabilities
4 Isolated Vortices Influence plankton and planktonic processes via: - Horizontal transport of biota Δ distribution (swirl velocity > translational speed) - Dispersal of IV biota to adjacent parcels (diffusion) Δ distribution - Vertical motions (upwelling and downwelling) that affect the availability of light and nutrients Δ rates of biological processes
5 Vertical Displacements of Isopycnal Surfaces Within IVs Non-linear Light Effects Exponential in PAR Exponential in PAR McGillicuddy et al. (2004)
6 Eddies 1 st baroclinic cyclones 1 st baroclinic anticyclones 2 nd baroclinic mode water eddies McGillicuddy et al. (1999)
7 Eddies PP PP PP PP PP PP Flierl & McGillicuddy (2004)
8 Eddies Enhanced biological activities have been reported for each eddy type as evidenced by measurements of carbon fixation, nutrient uptake and oxygen production (Falkowski et al. 1991, Allen et al. 1996, McNeil et al. 1999, Zhang et al. 2001) Primary production rates within these features are are thought to be stimulated by the input of growth-limiting nutrients that results from (i) the upward displacement of nutrient-rich isopycnal surfaces and (ii) larger vertical eddy diffusion coefficients
9 Hawaiian Eddies: Historical Perspective Patzert (1969) - Atmospheric forcing and eddy genesis - Eddy hydrography (CTD surveys) - Theoretical analysis and modeling Lobel and Robinson (1985, 1986) - Eddy influences on coastal currents (transport) - Role of eddies in the recruitment of larval fish
10 Hawaiian Eddies: The 1989 Eddy Study Falkowski et al. (1991) - Effects of eddy pumping on primary production rates (FRR fluorometry) Olaizola et al. (1993) - Effects of eddy pumping phytoplankton distributions and community structure Allen et al. (1996) - Effects of eddy pumping on primary productivity ( 14 C) and new production rates ( 15 N)
11 Hawaiian Eddies: Historical Perspective Lumpkin (1998) Ph.D. Dissertation Eddies and Currents of the Hawaiian Islands - Utilized Drifter, ADCP, sea level record, TOPEX altimetry and AVHRR SST data - Developed models to describe the genesis, cyclogeostrophic balance, and propagation of Hawaiian cyclonic and anti-cyclonic eddies

(2002) - Investigated the influence of cyclonic eddies on the distribution of the Pacific blue marlin (catch data) Chavanne et al.

24 E-FLUX Experiment E-Flux Goal: Provide in situ estimates of the upper and lower limits of mesoscale eddy effects on local biogeochemical cycling such that they can be used to test, evaluate, and reformulate the various models for assessing eddy influences on larger regional and basin spatial scales E-Flux hypothesis: The interaction of the NE trade winds with the Hawaiian Island topography acts as a trigger to set in motion a cascade of events that results in an increased carrying capacity of this subtropical ecosystem and enhanced rates of particulate matter export E-FLUX website:
25 E-Flux Hypothesis
26 E-FLUX Research Objectives Determine how (mechanistically) and where production, planktonic community biomass and export flux are enhanced in an eddy flow field Quantify the net effects of first baroclinic mode cyclonic eddies on trophic processes and carbon export relative to the ambient oligotrophic system
27 State-of-the-art techniques utilized during E-Flux to identify and quantify physical-chemical-biological interactions on a variety of time and space scales
28 State-of-the-art techniques utilized during E-Flux to identify and quantify physical-chemical-biological interactions on a variety of time and space scales
