Enhanced rates of particulate organic matter remineralization by microzooplankton are diminished by added ballast minerals [PDF]

, 2013
To examine the potentially competing influences of microzooplankton and calcite mineral ballast on organic matter remineralization, we incubated diatoms in darkness in rolling tanks with and without added calcite minerals (coccoliths) and ...
