  abstract = {{I}n {J}anuary 1991, the {E}quatorial {P}acific enrichment area covered a belt more than 11000 km long, with surface nitrate concentration ... near the {G}alapagos {I}slands, decreasing westwards and desappearing beyond 167°{E}. {I}n this area, the amount of chlorophyll a ({C}hla) did not change significantly from one end of the upwelling to the other, and was very low everywhere ... {S}chematically, in spite of the typical longitudinal gradients of temperature and nutrients, all data of chlorophyll, size distribution and cell numbers clearly indicate that an extreme monotony characterizes the distribution of phytoplankton all along the enrichment area due to the {E}quatorial upwelling, covering 11 million km2 for mean upwelling conditions.
