Abstract:Oceanic Net primary production (NPP) results from the photosynthesis of marine plankton, which accounts for half of the global primary production and influences the carbon cycle, and transfers organic matter and energy to marine ecosystems. Anthropogenic activities severely stress the ocean ecosystem through warming and acidification and have significantly altered NPP. In this context, we assess the long-term changes in NPP in the Indian Ocean (IO) with respect to the changes in physical processes and nutrient… Show more
