Exploring the Potential Role of Terrestrially Derived Humic Substances in the Marine Biogeochemistry of Iron
There is a widely recognized link between iron bioavailability and phytoplankton growth in large tracts of the World Ocean. Iron bioavailability is thus pivotal to the removal of atmospheric carbon via the ocean’s ‘biological pump.’ To evaluate future scenarios of global climate change, we must ther...
