bio-optical and upper-ocean physics models.
Activities will involve: the use of
ocean-colour satellite data to compute
spectrally-resolved light penetration in the
photic layer; impact of changes in light
penetration on water-column stability and
heating in the upper-ocean mixed layer; and
consequent effects on mixing, mixed-layer
depth and air-sea exchange of heat. Coupling
the light model to primary-production models
is also desired.</span></font></span></font></div>

inter-annual oscillations, extreme events),
and to explore the use of ocean-colour data to
assess the skill in ecosystem models. Some
experience in working with marine
biogeochemical models and models of light
field underwater is desirable as is an
interest in coupled
biogeochemical-physical-optical processes and
air-sea exchanges of energy and materials
(e.g., carbon, DMS).</span></font></span></font></div>
