Short summary
Phytoplankton patchiness in the northeastern SCS during May 2014 could be largely controlled by vertical nutrient fluxes including turbulent diffusion and curl-driven upwelling. There was an increasing turbulent diffusion but decreasing curl-driven upwelling from the coastal upwelling zones to the offshore pelagic zones. Elevated fluxes near Dongsha led to net growth of a diatom-rich community, whereas low fluxes near southwest Taiwan resulted in a decline of a picoplankton bloom.
