Lipids are structurally diverse biomolecules that serve multiple roles in cells. As such, they
are used as biomarkers in the modern ocean and as paleoproxies to explore the geological …

Extensive studies in the 1980s–1990s led to the characterization of latitudinal variations in
sea surface δ13C values of particulate organic carbon (δ13CPOC), and relationships were …

Lipids comprise a significant fraction of sinking organic matter in the ocean and play a
crucial role in the carbon cycle. Despite this, our understanding of the processes that control …

Zooplankton contribute a major component of the vertical flux of particulate organic matter to
the ocean interior by packaging consumed food and waste into large, dense fecal pellets …

Protists represent the majority of the eukaryotic diversity in the oceans. They have different
functions in the marine food web, playing essential roles in the biogeochemical cycles …

Marine particulate organic carbon (POC) contributes to carbon export, food webs, and
sediments, but uncertainties remain in its origins. Globally, variations in stable carbon …

Herein, we study the occurrence and water column distribution trends of suspended particle-
associated aliphatic (AHCs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) collected from 36 …

Probing the suspended particles in natural water is significant for environmental monitoring
and ecological research, such as early warning of water blooms and assessment of water …

Abstract The Amazon River exports∼ 13.7 Tg yr− 1 of particulate organic carbon (POC) to
the ocean, a portion of which is transported vertically through the water column. Here, we …

Tropical cyclones (hurricanes) generate intense surface ocean cooling and vertical mixing
resulting in nutrient upwelling into the photic zone and episodic phytoplankton blooms …
