Production and partitioning of organic matter during simulated phytoplankton blooms

Creator:

Wetz, Michael S.

Abstract:

Few studies have examined the partitioning of organic matter in upwelling systems, despite the fact that these systems play a key role in carbon and nitrogen budgets in the ocean. We examined the production and partitioning of phytoplankton-derived organic matter in deck incubations off Oregon during the upwelling season. During...

Bacterioplankton in the Oregon upwelling system: distribution, cell-specific leucine incorporation, and diversity

Creator:

Longnecker, Krista

Abstract:

Marine bacterioplankton play an important role in global elemental cycles because they return carbon dioxide and nutrients to the biosphere as they reduce organic matter. Furthermore, marine bacterioplankton are not uniformly active, and subpopulations of the in situ community may be more or less active at any given time. Defining...
