Abstract

Highlights: [•] We reparameterize and validate a model of phytoplankton size class (PSC). [•] We observe variability of PSC associated with a cyclonic eddy. [•] The cold eddy is characterized by enhanced productivity and a shift in the PSC. [•] Changes in PSC are mainly influenced by physical and biological processes. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
