🦠 A study led by Scripps Oceanography scientists reveals that #MarineMicrobes exhibited mostly positive interactions with one another over a six-year period. These positive interactions became even more common during times of environmental stress. Dive into the study. ⬇️
Positive Interactions Dominate Among Marine Microbes, Six-Year Study Reveals
A six-year analysis of marine microbes in coastal California waters has overturned long-held assumptions about how the ocean's smallest organisms interact. Researchers at UC San Diego’s Scripps Instit...

Mapping of the viral shunt across widespread coccolithophore blooms using metabolic biomarkers
The viral shunt is a fundamental ecosystem process which diverts the flux of organic carbon from grazers to heterotrophic microorganisms. Through the extracellular release of metabolites, lytic viral ...

A new study showcasing how the Southern ocean is filled with novel genetic content that is partially shared with the Arctic but largely endemic.

Thd study also provides the Antarctic circumnavigation metagenomic dataset!

They’re invisible, live on sand grains, and fight ocean pollution. Meet the microbes quietly reshaping Earth’s nitrogen balance. #MarineMicrobes #OceanPollution #NitrogenCycle
Invisible Pockets That Clean the Ocean
Invisible zones created by microbes on sand grains may be removing a third of excess nitrogen in oxygen-rich coastal seas. Here's how they do it.
