Major contribution of particle‐associated microbes to deep‐sea organic carbon degradation
The biological carbon pump mediates the export of particulate organic carbon from the euphotic zone to the deep ocean, where it provides the base of the food web. Although deep-sea microbial metaboli...

In just a few weeks, the MOVIE group sets sail on a 1-month research cruise aboard the R/V Pelagia in the Atlantic Ocean!
Our equipment is packed and shipped, and the count down has officially begun as we get ready to join the NEREIDES cruise. Stay tuned for updates ⛴️ 🌊🦠
