Static, manual provinces Longhurst (1995, 1998, 2006)

Questions Can We Make Dynamic Provinces (space-time variant)? Why? Biome boundaries are predictive of hydrography Changes in biome size and distributions are bellwethers for cyclical and secular earth cycles True comparative analysis by controlling for advection (ie making provinces a quantitative measurement)

Automatic unsupervised classification Oliver et al (2004) JGR Oceans SeaWiFS MODIS/Aqua AVHRR SST

Maps are quite similar Are they real?

Informational Content in MODIS and Sea-WiFS/AVHRR are highly similar

Where are we? Have a verified method to make dynamic and quantitative maps Automatic Biomes reflect expert knowledge Biomes are change in response to well known global processes Biomes are being used to find cyclical and secular change in the ocean environment Comparative analysis of primary production in provinces

Where are we going? Iron Dust Impacts? Linking MODIS and Sea-WiFS/AVHRR records together Biomes/Water Masses as Fisheries Indicators Adding 3-D Structures to Biomes
