A novel approach to estimate active carbon flux using the micronekton biomass spectra

Micronekton play a critical role in global carbon cycling, actively transporting carbon between the surface and deep ocean during diel migrations. Carbon transport is mediated through respiration, gut flux, excretion and mortality of migrating organisms. Because marine ecological processes are stron...
