The biogenic sulfur cycle in the coupled ocean–sea ice–atmosphere system
Polar oceans and sea-ice regions are global hot spots for the production of biogenic volatile methylated sulfur (VMS) compounds: dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and methanethiol (MeSH). VMS compounds make important contributions to atmospheric particle formation and cloud property modulation, especially when polar atmospheres are pristine. As a result, the polar biogenic sulfur cycle may induce significant climate feedback in response to ongoing sea ice d…
The seascape of VOC production and cycling in a tropical coral reef
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have been proposed to indicate coral reef health, but little is known about their cycling processes in coral reefs and the roles of reef components. We studied the distribution and cycling of ocean-leaving VOCs (dimethylsulfide (DMS), carbonyl sulfide (COS), CS2, dimethyl disulfide, isoprene, CH3I, CH2ClI, and bromomethanes CH2Br2 and CHBr3) across a coral reef in Mo’orea (French Polynesia) that has a fast and un…
Influence of open ocean biogeochemistry on aerosol and clouds
Aerosols and clouds are key components of the marine atmosphere, impacting the Earth’s radiative budget with a net cooling effect over the industrial era that counterbalances greenhouse gas warming, yet with an uncertain amplitude. Here we report recent advances in our understanding of how open ocean aerosol sources are modulated by ocean biogeochemistry and how they, in turn, shape cloud coverage and properties. We organize these findings in suc…
Untangling the influence of Antarctic and Southern Ocean life on clouds
Polar environments are among the fastest changing regions on the planet. It is a crucial time to make significant improvements in our understanding of how ocean and ice biogeochemical processes are linked with the atmosphere. This is especially true over Antarctica and the Southern Ocean where observations are severely limited and the environment is far from anthropogenic influences. In this commentary, we outline major gaps in our knowledge, eme…
Uncoupled seasonal variability of transparent exopolymer and Coomassie stainable particles in coastal Mediterranean waters
Transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) and Coomassie stainable particles (CSP) are gel-like particles, ubiquitous in the ocean, that affect important biogeochemical processes including organic carbon cycling by planktonic food webs. Despite much research on both groups of particles (especially TEP) over many years, whether they exist as distinctly stainable fractions of the same particles or as independent particles, each with different driving f…
Indicadores químicos de combustión en un hogar del Paleolítico Medio del yacimiento de Mediona I (Alt Penedès, Barcelona)
La aplicación del análisis químico orgánico a muestras arqueológicas es una técnica de desarrollo reciente. El estudio de la fracción lipídica (eso es, la fracción de materia extraíble mediante disolventes orgánicos) de restos sedimentarios en yacimientos permite recuperar una información inaccesible a otras técnicas de identificación aplicadas a la Arqueología. Este artículo describe de forma comparativa la fracción aromática del sedimento en el…
