Description:

Sea surface temperature (SST) in the Northeast Shelf Large Marine Ecosystem during the second half of 2009 alternated between moderately warm and cool conditions. There were exceptional spring and fall phytoplankton blooms on the Northeast Shelf. As a result, 2009 has the highest chlorophyll a concentrations recorded in the satellite data time series. This is a clear indication that productivity of the ecosystem is at a very high level. Zooplankton biomass levels were average or above during most of the year.
