NRL 7343 Nov’97 Summary Complex SST / Chlorophyll linking at the Subpolar FrontComplex SST / Chlorophyll linking at the Subpolar Front The spring bloom started in late March – early April in the southern basin and progressed northward through late May, ending in all areas by early June.The spring bloom started in late March – early April in the southern basin and progressed northward through late May, ending in all areas by early June. There was a shift in maximum chlorophyll concentrations from south of the Subpolar Front in April to north of the front in June.There was a shift in maximum chlorophyll concentrations from south of the Subpolar Front in April to north of the front in June. Fall Bloom progresses from North to south Nov - DecFall Bloom progresses from North to south Nov - Dec Timing and Location of the Spring / Fall Bloom Strong correlation was observed between satellite and shipboard measurements, in terms of spatial pattern (SST, absorption, scattering) and absolute magnitude (SST, absorption).
