  abstract      = {A physical-biological coupled model was used to estimate the effect of the physical processes
at the Strait of Gibraltar over the biogeochemical features of the Atlantic Inflow (AI) towards the
Mediterranean Sea. This work was focused on the seasonal variation of the biogeochemical patterns in
the AI and the role of the Strait; including primary production and phytoplankton features. As the
physical model is 1D (horizontal) and two-layer, different integration methods for the primary
production in the Biogeochemical Fluxes Model (BFM) have been evaluated. An approach based on the
integration of a production-irradiance function was the chosen method. Using this Plankton Functional
Type model (BFM), a simplified phytoplankton seasonal cycle in the AI was simulated. Main results
included a principal bloom in spring dominated by nanoflagellates, whereas minimum biomass (mostly
picophytoplankton) was simulated during summer. Physical processes occurring in the Strait could
trigger primary production and raised phytoplankton biomass (during spring and autumn), mainly due
to two combined effects. First, in the Strait a strong interfacial mixing (causing nutrient supply to the
upper layer) is produced, and, second, a shoaling of the surface Atlantic layer occurs eastward. Our
results show that these phenomena caused an integrated production of 105 g C m−2 year−1 in the
eastern side of the Strait, and would also modify the proportion of the different phytoplankton groups.
Nanoflagellates were favored during spring/autumn while picophytoplankton is more abundant in
summer. Finally, AI could represent a relevant source of nutrients and biomass to Alboran Sea,
fertilizing upper layer of this area with 4.95 megatons nitrate year-1 and 0.44 megatons C year-1. A
main advantage of this coupled model is the capability of solving relevant high-resolution processes as
the tidal forcing without an expensive performance, allowing to assess the effect of these phenomena
on the biogeochemical patterns at longer time scales.},
