What is the average upwelling rate of nitrate in mol


Evaluate the accurate solution of the given question

Question- The biological pump: For an open ocean location that is near steady state over the annual cycle, surface nutrient budgets indicate an average new production of 2 mol N m-2 yr-1. Given this information-

Part 1- What is the average upwelling rate of nitrate in mol m-2 yr-1?

Part 2- What is the average net community production in mol C m-2 yr-1(assuming that phytoplankton maintain a Redfield C: N: P molar ratio of 106:16:1)?

Part 3- What is the average export of organic carbon in mol C m-2 yr-1 ?

Part 4- What is the 'f-ratio' for this system, given a total net phytoplankton production in the euphotic zone of 20 mol C m-2 yr-1?

Part 5- What is the average annual drawdown (decrease) in nitrate concentration in the euphotic zone, which has an average depth of 100 m?

I want help to calculate the average upwelling rate of nitrate.
