Description

PATagonia EXperiment (PATEX) Project is a Brazilian research project, which has the overall objective of characterizing the environmental constraints, phytoplankton assemblages, primary production rates, bio-optical characteristics, and air-sea CO2 fluxes waters along the Argentinean shelf-break during austral spring and summer. A set of seven PATEX cruises were conducted from 2004 to 2009. Garcia et al., 2011 (doi:10.1029/2010JC006595)
