TL;DR: It is demonstrated that iron supply controls phytoplankton growth and community composition during summer in these polar Southern Ocean waters, but the fate of algal carbon remains unknown and depends on the interplay between the processes controlling export, remineralisation and timescales of water mass subduction.

TL;DR: It is found that a large phytoplankton bloom over the Kerguelen plateau in the Southern Ocean was sustained by the supply of iron and major nutrients to surface waters from iron-rich deep water below, suggesting that changes in iron supply from below may have a more significant effect on atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations than previously thought.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revisiting Carbon Flux Through the Ocean's Twilight Zone

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used neutrally buoyant sediment traps to sample this chronically understudied realm, and measured a transfer efficiency of sinking particulate organic carbon between 150 and 500 meters of 20 and 50%.
Journal ArticleDOI
An assessment of the use of sediment traps for estimating upper ocean particle fluxes
Ken O. Buesseler,Avan N Antia,Min Chen,Scott W. Fowler,Wilford D. Gardner,Örjan Gustafsson,Koh Harada,Anthony F. Michaels,Michiel M Rutgers van der Loeff,Manmohan Sarin,Deborah K. Steinberg,Thomas W. Trull +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an assessment of sediment trap accuracy issues by gathering data to address trap hydrodynamics, the problem of zooplankton swimmers, and the solubilization of material after collection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding the export of biogenic particles in oceanic waters: Is there consensus?
Philip W. Boyd,Thomas W. Trull +1 more
TL;DR: This article examined progress towards a global view of oceanic export of particulate organic carbon (POC) and other nutrient elements (P, N, Si) from the surface (upper 100 m), through the subsurface, to the deep sea (>1000 m), focusing on syntheses published since 1999 and on the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study.
