TL;DR: In this article, a review of current functioning and responses of Mediterranean marine biogeochemical cycles and ecosystems with respect to key natural and anthropogenic drivers and to consider the ecosystems' responses to likely changes in physical, chemical and socio-economical forcings induced by global change and by growing anthropogenic pressure at the regional scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phytol degradation products as biogeochemical tracers in aquatic environments
TL;DR: This paper reviews recent studies of phytol degradation and provides an update on more classical studies and examines the different biotic and abiotic processes which may play a significant role during the diagenesis of this widely distributed isoprenoid alcohol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipid characterization of coastal hypersaline cyanobacterial mats from the Camargue (France)
TL;DR: A study of the sedimentary lipids of coastal hypersaline microbial mats sampled in the Camargue (France) allowed identification of the predominant inputs of organic matter and provided insights about early diagenetic processes, and the biomarker profiles revealed a surprising diversity of organic Matter sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-chain alkenones and related compounds in the benthic haptophyte Chrysotila lamellosa Anand HAP 17
TL;DR: The data show that haptophyte algae are a possible source of the alkenols found in some marine sediments, but the small amounts found suggest that other sources such as bacterial reduction of alkenones are more likely in highly reducing sediments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of lipids and their degradation products as biomarkers for carbon cycling in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea
Stéphane Christodoulou,Jean Claude Marty,Jean Claude Marty,Juan Carlos Miquel,John K. Volkman,Jean-François Rontani +5 more
TL;DR: Changes in phytoplankton composition and degradation of particulate organic matter (POM) in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea were studied using time-series sediment trap samples collected during the spring of 2003 at the DYFAMED station, and sterol degradation products appeared to be less suited than oxidation products of monounsaturated fatty acids for the precise monitoring of the degradation state of POM.
