Satellite-based observation of particulate organic carbon in the northern Bay of Bengal
Particulate organic carbon (POC) plays a vital role in the ocean carbon cycle and is related to many important ocean biogeochemical processes. This study investigates the annual and seasonal variability of POC and its relationship with sea surface temperature (SST), chlorophyll-a (Chl-a), and wind vector in the northern Bay of Bengal (BoB) of Bangladesh and validates satellite data with in situ measurement data.;
