Biome‐specific scaling of ocean productivity, temperature, and carbon export efficiency

Abstract Mass conservation and metabolic theory place constraints on how marine export production (EP) scales with net primary productivity (NPP) and sea surface temperature (SST); however, little is empirically known about how these relationships vary across ecologically distinct ocean biomes. Here...
