  • Remineralization of marine particulate organic matter

    Creator:
    Burkhardt, Brian Gary
    Abstract:
    Marine microorganisms play a significant role in the cycling of nutrients in the open ocean through production, consumption, and degradation of organic matter (OM). Carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) are essential ingredients in every known recipe for life. However, the cycling of each of these elements proceeds at...

  • The Effects of Phytoplankton Prey Species and Nutrient Limitation on Microzooplankton

    Creator:
    McBeain, Kelsey Ann
    Abstract:
    Phytoplankton and microzooplankton comprise the base and the first link of the marine food web, respectively. These microbes are key drivers of marine carbon and nutrient cycles. Phytoplankton convert atmospheric CO₂ into organic carbon, and microzooplankton consume phytoplankton, packaging phytoplankton carbon into particulate forms that have a variety of fates:...
