| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Oxygenated volatile organic compounds (OVOC) affect global climate change by contributing to the production of tropospheric ozone. The ocean strongly influences the distribution of atmospheric OVOC, however, there is little knowledge about its relationship with OVOC dynamics and microbial activity on the surface of the ocean. In this study, the production and decomposition rates of acetaldehyde and acetone by marine bacteria were quantitatively evaluated in culture experiments. We found that marine bacteria, which were considered to be OVOC decomposers, play a role as OVOC producer.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
近年、大気環境におけるOVOCの重要性から、グローバルなOVOC分布や収支に関するモデル研究が進められている。海洋は主要なOVOCの吸収・放出源であるにも関わらず、海洋表層のOVOC動態に関する知見は乏しく、OVOC収支の精度向上を律速している。このような背景の中、本研究は海洋微生物とOVOC動態の関わりについて定量的に評価することができた。この成果は、海洋－大気間のOVOC収支の理解に貢献する。
