Ocean microbes get their diet through a surprising mix of sources, study finds
Up to one-third of the carbon consumed by Prochlorococcus may come from sources other than photosynthesis. Continue reading Ocean microbes get their diet through a surprising mix of sources, study finds
Small eddies play a big role in feeding ocean microbes
Swirling waters replenish nutrients in open ocean, a new study finds, and could mitigate some climate change effects. Continue reading Small eddies play a big role in feeding ocean microbes
New model sheds light on day/night cycle in the global ocean
Computer models of global ocean biogeochemistry typically don’t include the day/night light cycle. CBIOMES researchers are. Continue reading New model sheds light on day/night cycle in the global ocean
