Marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) contains more carbon than the combined stocks of
Earth's biota. Organisms in the ocean continuously release a myriad of molecules that …

Microbial cells (ie, bacteria, archaea, microeukaryotes) in oceans secrete a diverse array of
large molecules, collectively called extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) or simply …

In soils, dissolved organic matter (DOM) is probably the most bioavailable fraction of soil
organic matter, since all microbial uptake mechanisms require a water environment …

Since the development of methods to quantify transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) 1993,
it has been shown that these gel-particles are not only ubiquitous and abundant, but also …

The diversity of the morphologies, propulsion mechanisms, flow environments, and
behaviors of planktonic microorganisms has long provided inspiration for fluid physicists …

Marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a complex mixture of molecules found throughout
the world's oceans. It plays a key role in the export, distribution, and sequestration of carbon …

Bacterial utilization of high‐molecular‐weight (HMW;> 1 kDa) and low‐molecular‐weight
(LMW;< 1 kDa) dissolved organic C (DOC) was investigated in freshwater and marine …

We used a method that combines microautoradiography with hybridization of fluorescent
rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes to whole cells (MICRO-FISH) to test the hypothesis …

Northern cod, comprising populations of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) off southern Labrador
and eastern Newfoundland, supported major fisheries for hundreds of years. But in the late …

More than 90% of the global ocean dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is refractory, has an
average age of 4000–6000 years and a lifespan from months to millennia. The fraction of …
