Marine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) exhibits a spectrum of reactivity, from very fast
turnover of the most bioavailable forms in the surface ocean to long-lived materials …

▪ Abstract Heterotrophic bacteria perform two major functions in the transformation of organic
matter: They produce new bacterial biomass (bacterial secondary production [BP]), and they …

One of the major conundrums in oceanography for the past 20 y has been that, although the
total flux of dissolved organic carbon (OC; DOC) discharged annually to the global ocean …

Marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a complex mixture of molecules found throughout
the world's oceans. It plays a key role in the export, distribution, and sequestration of carbon …

In both marine and freshwaters, the concentration of dissolved organic nitrogen (DON)
frequently exceeds that of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN), including ammonium, nitrate …

Most of the carbon fixed in primary production is rapidly cycled and remin-eralized, leaving
behind various forms of organic carbon that contribute to a vast reservoir of nonliving …

Marine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) encompasses one of the largest reservoirs of
carbon on Earth. Heterotrophic bacteria are the primary biotic force regulating the fate of this …

The amount of information on oceanic dissolved organic matter (DOM) has increased
dramatically in the last decade thanks to the advances in chemical characterization. This …

The bulk of sea water is an aqueous solution of inorganic salts and gases. However, if it was
just this, life as we know it would not exist. In addition to this inorganic component, at least …

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) data are presented from three meridional transects
conducted in the North Atlantic as part of the US Climate Variability (CLIVAR) Repeat …
