One-quarter of photosynthesis-derived carbon on Earth rapidly cycles through a set of short-
lived seawater metabolites that are generated from the activities of marine phytoplankton …

The marine trace gas dimethylsulfide (DMS) supplies sulfur to the atmosphere at a rate of 15–
40 Tg S per year, contributing to the production of atmospheric sulfate aerosols that …

Corals and the reef ecosystems that they support are in global decline due to increasing
anthropogenic pressures such as climate change. However, effective reef conservation …

Photosynthetic microalgae can capture solar energy and convert it to bioenergy and
biochemical products. In nature or industrial processes, microalgae live together with …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) in the oceans is one of the largest pools of reduced carbon
on Earth, comparable in size to the atmospheric CO2 reservoir. A vast number of …

Dissolved oxygen concentration is a crucial organizing principle in marine ecosystems. As
oxygen levels decline, energy is increasingly diverted away from higher trophic levels into …

Despite the impressive advances that have been made in assessing the diversity of marine
microorganisms, the mechanisms that underlie the participation of microorganisms in marine …

Bacteria in the 16S rRNA clade SAR86 are among the most abundant uncultivated
constituents of microbial assemblages in the surface ocean for which little genomic …

The communities of bacteria that assemble around marine microphytoplankton are
predictably dominated by Rhodobacterales, Flavobacteriales, and families within the …

Globally, reef-building corals are the most prolific producers of dimethylsulphoniopropionate
(DMSP),, a central molecule in the marine sulphur cycle and precursor of the climate-active …
