Global observing needs in the deep ocean
The deep ocean below 200 m water depth is the least observed, but largest habitat on our
planet by volume and area. Over 150 years of exploration has revealed that this dynamic …

A new conceptual framework for the transformation of groundwater dissolved organic matter
Groundwater comprises 95% of the liquid fresh water on Earth and contains a diverse mix of
dissolved organic matter (DOM) molecules which play a significant role in the global carbon …

[HTML][HTML] Photochemical dissolution of buoyant microplastics to dissolved organic carbon: rates and microbial impacts
Trillions of plastic fragments are afloat at sea, yet they represent only 1–2% of the plastics
entering the ocean annually. The fate of the missing plastic and its impact on marine life …

Diversity and ecological footprint of Global Ocean RNA viruses
DNA viruses are increasingly recognized as influencing marine microbes and microbe-
mediated biogeochemical cycling. However, little is known about global marine RNA virus …

Global riverine land-to-ocean carbon export constrained by observations and multi-model assessment
Rivers are a key component of the global carbon cycle. They receive vast quantities of
terrestrial carbon, of which a large fraction is ultimately exported to the coastal ocean. Our …

Molecular signatures of dissolved organic matter generated from the photodissolution of microplastics in sunlit seawater
Plastics are accumulating on Earth, including at sea. The photodegradation of microplastics
floating in seawater produces dissolved organic matter (DOM), indicating that sunlight can …
