[ES] La influencia de la actividad mesoscalar sobre la biomasa, abundancia y composición taxonómica del mesozooplancton fue estudiada desde las aguas costeras del afloramiento del NW de África a las aguas oceánicas cercanas a las Islas Canarias. Las muestras fueron escaneadas y analizadas mediante un sistema automatizado de procesado de imágenes digitales (ZooImage), demostrando ser una herramienta clave para este tipo de estudios. Nuestros resultados confirman la influencia de las estructuras mesoscalares en la distribución del zooplancton en la zona. El filamento de afloramiento y el remolino anticiclónico estudiados dieron lugar a un aumento de la biomasa y la abundancia del zooplancton en su interior. El acoplamiento físico-biológico existente en las diferentes estructuras se observa mediante la similitud en la distribución de la clorofila, indicador de las condiciones físicas, y la biomasa de zooplancton.

[EN] Migrant biota transports carbon to the mesopelagic zone due to their feeding at the shallower layers and their defecation, respiration, excretion and mortality at depth. The so-called active flux has been considered a small number compared to gravitational sinking. Recent assessments in subtropical waters show an important effect due to predation by interzonal diel vertical migrants (DVMs). The consumption and subsequent transport of epipelagic zooplankton by DVMs (mainly micronekton) to the mesopelagic zone seemed similar to the mean gravitational export. However, the consequences of this active transport to the bathypelagic zone are almost unknown. Here, we show the effect of the Atlantic and Pacific equatorial upwelling systems on the vertical distribution of acoustic backscatter from the surface to bathypelagic depths. The enhancement of the acoustic signal below the upwelling zone was observed to reach 4000 m depth, coinciding with high abundances and activity of bacteria at those depths. The results suggest an active carbon transport from the epipelagic driven by zooplankton and micronekton, enhancing the efficiency of the biological pump and giving an insight about the fate of an increased productivity at the shallower layers of the ocean

[EN]The Cape Verde Frontal Zone separates North and South Atlantic Central Waters in the eastern North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre. CTD-O2 and shipboard ADCP data from three hydrographic sections carried out in September 2003 are used to study the structure of the front. Results show the relation between spatial variations of water masses and currents, demonstrating the importance of advection in the distribution of water masses. Diapycnal diffusivities due to double diffusion and vertical shear instabilities are also estimated. Existence of competition between the two processes through the water column is shown. Depth-averaged diffusivities suggest that salt fingering dominates diapycnal mixing, except areas of purest South Atlantic Central Water. Here, double diffusion processes are weak and, consequently, shear of the flow is the main process. Results also show that strong mixing induced by vertical shear is associated with a large intrusion found near the front.
