Time series plots from the surface mooring and nearest sediment trap mooring. Peaks in the variability in primary production (top), based on the measurements on the surface mooring by Dickey and Marra correlate well with peaks in the export production (lower two) measured by the sediment traps at 2,229 and 3,478 meters. Note the correlation as well between the strong currents (second from top) measured by the surface mooring during export production peaks in May and September. These peaks in velocity were associated with the passing eddies.
