Harnessing nature's buffer: Assessing the role of bivalve shells in coastal alkalinity regeneration
Abstract Bivalve shells, a natural alkaline material, play a crucial role in coastal carbon cycles by influencing total alkalinity (TA) and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). This study investigated oyster shell dissolution in Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island, under varying pCO2 conditions, revealing TA regeneration rates of 4–56 μmol L−1 d−1, which could

Abstract The stable isotope ratio of dissolved inorganic carbon (δ13C‐DIC) is a valuable tracer for investigating carbon cycling in aquatic environments. However, its potential remains underutilized due to limited data availability. Fewer than 15% of cruise samples are analyzed for δ13C‐DIC, as isotope analysis using isotope ratio mass spectrometry is ...

Land influence decouples benthic nutrient fluxes on the Siberian Arctic Ocean shelves
Abstract Land permafrost thaw transfers increasing amounts of organic matter and nutrients to the Arctic Ocean. These nutrients could stimulate primary production directly, or indirectly following remineralization in sediments. Projections of this effect are limited by scarce observations and poor understanding of the underlying controls.

An ecological framework for microbial metabolites in the ocean ecosystem
Abstract The ocean microbe‐metabolite network involves thousands of individual metabolites that encompass a breadth of chemical diversity and biological functions. These microbial metabolites mediate biogeochemical cycles, facilitate ecological relationships, and impact ecosystem health. While analytical advancements have begun to illuminate such roles,
