Bacterial abundance drives dissolved organic carbon distribution in North Atlantic gyre, model suggests
In the ocean, a haze made from tiny bits of dead plants, animals, and microbes hangs in the upper reaches of the water. Each particle is just a fraction of a micrometer across, but together the carbon within these particles weighs about 700 billion tons—about as much as all the carbon in the atmosph...

In the ocean, a haze made from tiny bits of dead plants, animals, and microbes hangs in the upper reaches of the water. Each particle is just a fraction of a micrometer across, but together the carbon within these particles weighs about 700 billion tons—about as much as all the carbon in the atmosphere.
