Mesoscale heterogeneity of biological fields of the Indian Ocean tropical zone: Structure, dynamics and interrelations
In 1980-1985 the expeditions of the Ukrainian SSR Academy of Sciences undertook a number of comprehensive studies of the Indian Ocean tropical zone (22nd voyage of the Akademik Vernadsky research ship, 8th and 14th voyages of the Professor Vodyanitsky research ship). The research covered the studies of dynamic characteristics of synoptic vortexes and estimation of their impact on structural and dynamic characteristics of oceanic biological fields (phytoplankton, primary production, zooplankton, micronekton).
