Characterization, Sources and Sinks of Colored Detrital Matter in the Ocean
1998
Goericke, Ralf
My primary research interest is the effect that phytoplankton community structure has on the optical fields and carbon cycling in the marine environment. Methods used in my lab are based on biomarkers, primarily chlorophylls, carotenoids and their degradation products. These are the chromophores which are responsible for a major fraction of the light absorbed in the ocean. It is my goal to characterize phytoplankton-derived chromophores in the marine environment and determine their effects on ocean optics and access their utility as biomarkers for the study of phytoplankton and processes associated with these in the ocean.
