Importance of bacteria and protozooplankton for faecal pellet degradation* This work is a contribution to the Arctos Network and Conflux project.
The degradation mechanisms of faecal pellets are still poorly understood, although they determine their contribution to vertical fluxes of carbon. The aim of this study was to attempt to understand the microbial (bacteria and protozooplankton) degradation of faecal pellets by measuring the faecal pe...
