Submarine groundwater discharge impacts on coastal nutrient biogeochemistry
Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) links terrestrial and marine systems, but has often
been overlooked in coastal nutrient budgets because it is difficult to quantify. In this Review …

Microbial ecology of the dark ocean above, at, and below the seafloor
The majority of life on Earth—notably, microbial life—occurs in places that do not receive
sunlight, with the habitats of the oceans being the largest of these reservoirs. Sunlight …

Emerging patterns of marine nitrogen fixation
Biological N2 fixation is an important part of the marine nitrogen cycle as it provides a source
of new nitrogen that can support biological carbon export and sequestration. Research in …
