Microscopic Organism Plays a Big Role in Ocean Carbon Cycling
San Diego CA (SPX) Apr 30, 2014 - It's broadly understood that the world's oceans play a crucial role in the global-scale cycling and exchange of carbon between Earth's ecosystems and atmosphere. Now scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego have taken a leap forward in understanding the microscopic underpinnings of these processes. When phytoplankton use carbon dioxide to make new cells, a substant ... more
