Abstract

Recent work has demonstrated that the cycle of organic carbon in sea water is not completely under biological control. Several important pathways may be controlled by physical or chemical mechanisms; these mechanisms may ultimately determine the availability of organic carbon to marine organisms, and the varieties and amounts of organic compounds remaining in solution.
