MM41A:
Linking 'Omics Insights to Marine Microbial Ecology and Biogeochemical Functioning I


Session ID#: 11418

Session Description:
Throughout history oceanography has explored science at the interface of traditional disciplines. In recent years, cutting-edge 'omics techniques, trace nutrient chemistry methods, and big data management are setting the stage for the next wave of oceanographic insights that were not possible even a decade ago due to improvements in resolution, detection limit, and computational power. This session will explore the newest interdisciplinary insights into linking 'omics data with marine microbial ecology and biogeochemical functioning. Thus, we encourage submissions on field, lab, and modeling work cutting across chemistry, microbial physiology, ecology, biogeochemistry, biogeography, and responses to global change. Presentations will highlight studies that leverage, blend, or interpret 'omics data in novel, interdisciplinary ways to inform pressing questions in marine biogeochemistry.
