Solitary phytoplankton cells sink in the mesopelagic ocean

Annie Bodel, Margaret Estapa, Colleen A. Durkin

The paper observes solitary sinking phytoplankton cells in the mesopelagic ocean, showing they contribute to nutrient supply and seed banks despite being a small fraction of organic carbon flux.

Ocean carbon export can be predicted from ocean color-based phytoplankton communities

Sasha J. Kramer, Erin L. Jones, Margaret Estapa…·Colleen A. Durkin

The paper links surface phytoplankton communities to carbon export using genetic tracers and ocean color data, showing diatoms and photosynthetic Hacrobia predict POC fluxes.
