Can organic matter flux profiles be diagnosed using remineralisation rates derived from observed tracers and modelled ocean transport rates?
The average depth in the ocean at which the majority of sinking organic matter particles remineralise is a fundamental parameter in the ocean's role in regulating atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub>. Observed spatial patterns in sinking fluxes and relationships between the fluxes of differen...
