Research Abstract

In order to contribute to a better understanding of oceanic carbon cycling, this study examined organic matter transformation and degradation mediated by microbes in the meso- and bathypelagic layers of the oceans. Data collected on full-depth distribution patterns of microbes in the Arctic and the western North Pacific Oceans were used to compare the magnitude of and spatiotemporal patterns in organic matter fluxes in widely different oceanic regions. In addition, using compound-specific nitrogen stable isotope ratios of amino acids, we developed a novel approach to examine the processes involved in organic transformations in deep waters.
