Development of autonomous in situ techniques to examine the impacts of dynamic forcings on sediment biogeochemistry in highly productive estuarine ecosystems

Characterized by high levels of terrestrial organic carbon inputs, estuaries and coastal marshes are among the most productive ecosystems on earth and significantly impact the global carbon cycle. Unfortunately, rates of natural organic matter (NOM) degradation in these environments are difficult t...
