Along with the sequences, we collected data on environmental parameters in the samples (chlorophyll a, bacterial production, salinity, nutrients, bacterial cell numbers, and particulate organic carbon and nitrogen).

Combining bio-optical measurements from floats and satellites also enables scientists to create a three - dimensional reconstruction of the particulate organic carbon distribution [Sauzède et al., 2016].

But in contrast to those models, DIC is rapidly assimilated into particulate organic carbon via photosynthesis, which raises pH. Particulate organic carbon (alive or dead) is heavy, and if not consumed and recycled, it sinks.
