OB44F:
Linking Microbial, Isotope, Micronutrient, and Other Approaches to Understand Carbon and Nutrient Cycling in the Ocean II Posters

Session ID#: 85240

Session Description:
Marine biogeochemistry is critical to the ocean’s ability to regulate atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Here we examine the nutrient and microbial processes that are important for sustaining the marine biological carbon pump (e.g. new/export production, nitrogen fixation, denitrification), focusing on the use of stable isotope probing, ‘omics’techniques, trace metals, radioisotopes, micro-nutrients, numerical simulations, and more. The goal of this session is to bring together marine biogeochemists using these various methods to obtain a more accurate view of biologically-related elemental cycling in the ocean—from microbes to macro fauna.
