This project aims to enhance understanding of carbon sequestration by studying diatom aggregates in the ocean. It utilizes advanced imaging techniques to analyze the role of transparent exopolymeric particles in particle aggregation and carbon cycling.
Advancing our understanding of biologically driven sequestration of carbon is crucial given the rapidly increasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations.
Diatoms are the most common type of phytoplankton and, as the ocean’s biological carbon pump, a key component in this process.
Diatom aggregates, in particular, comprise a significant fraction of sinking particulate matter drawing down atmospheric carbon to the depths of the ocean.
Diatoms produce transparent exopolymeric particles (TEP), a gel-like s…
