Description:Sea surface temperature (SST) in the Northeast Shelf Large Marine Ecosystem moderated to cool conditions during the second half of 2010 after the exceptionally warm conditions found during the first half of the year. There were exceptionally robust spring phytoplankton blooms on the Northeast Shelf; however, the fall bloom was below average. As a result, 2010 had below average chlorophyll a concentrations in contrast to the record level set last year.
