As we can see the levels of phosphate near the ocean surface is low compared to the depths of the ocean. This is so because near the surface, phytoplanktons consume nutrients (phosphate). Hence low phosphate concentration.
As we go further deep, the organisms that consume the phytoplanktons carry it to the depths of the ocean where it is released. This causes the concentration of the phosphate to almost stabilise as we go down the depths.

A profile of oxygen concentration in the North Pacific is shown in the figure below. 0 1000 2000 S 3000 O 4000 5000 6000 100 200 0 300 Oxygen [umol/kg] Use your knowledge of ocean processes to explain (with as much detail as you can) its magnitude and its shape. Explain what is meant by the term apparent oxygen utilization. Draw the corresponding profile for phosphate in the same location, indicating clearly how it covaries with that of oxygen....
