Workshop will include daily lectures, hands-on analyses and modeling of ocean productivity data, and training in ocean biogeochemical sampling and methodologies. Workshop objectives include:

  1. Gain familiarity with concepts, definitions, and methods used to estimate primary production, particles distributions, and phytoplankton biomass
  2. Become familiar with publicly available data and data products specific to ocean primary production
  3. Analyze shipboard, autonomous, and remote sensing data and data products
