Role of Particle Associated Bacteria in Aggregate Formation in the Current and Future Ocean
Offered By: Labroots via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a 13-minute webinar on the role of particle-associated bacteria in aggregate formation in current and future oceans. Presented by Britni Livar, a first-year Environmental Life Sciences PhD student at Arizona State University, delve into the importance of marine snow formation in the biological carbon pump. Learn how these particles, composed of cells, minerals, and organic carbon, are held together by transparent exopolymeric particles (TEP) acting as a glue-like matrix. Gain insights into the complex processes involved in carbon export to ocean depths and their significance in the context of changing marine environments.
