Molecular insights into the microbial formation of marine dissolved organic matter: recalcitrant or labile? (2014, background): “Despite their dominant role in marine carbon cycling, very little is known about the lability of TEP, especially on timescales longer than 1 or 2 weeks (Passow, 2002a).”
The biological pump in a high CO 2 world (2012, background): “…that additional factors, such as total alkalinity (Mari 2008, Passow 2012) or nutrient stoichiometry (Corzo et al. 2000, Staats et al. 2000, Passow 2002, Beauvais et al. 2006), must be carefully considered in future experiments that test the role of ocean acidification and TEP in…”
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) release by phytoplankton in the contemporary and future ocean (2014, background): “Numerous studies have shown that exopolymer particles accumulate in phytoplankton cultures (Passow, 2002b; Claquin et al., 2008; Fukao et al., 2010) and during blooms (Passow et al.”
Vertical distribution of exopolymer particles in sea ice of the Fram Strait (Arctic) during autumn (2003, background): “Planktonic exopolymer particles can be formed biotically by bacteria and algae in the form of capsules and sheets, but are mainly formed abiotically by coagulation of dissolved organic matter and colloidal precursors (Zhou et al. 1998, Stoderegger & Herndl 1999, Passow 2000, 2002).”
Coupling of heterotrophic bacteria to phytoplankton bloom development at different pCO 2 levels: a mesocosm study (2008, background): “…revealed that TEP positively correlated 5 with abundance of attached bacteria but negatively with their csBPP. Due to their sticking properties TEP can efficiently scavenge bacteria but may lower csBPP of attached bacteria because of their low nitrogen and phosphorus content (Passow, 2002).”
Primary production during nutrient-induced blooms at elevated CO2 concentrations (2009, background): “An increasing production of TEP with increasing CO 2 concentration has previously been shown (Engel, 2002; Engel et al., 2004; Rochelle-Newall et al., 2004).”
Transparent exopolymer particles: Potential agents for organic fouling and biofilm formation in desalination and water treatment plants (2009, background): “Considerable amounts of TEP are also produced from the gelatinous envelopes surrounding diatoms and other algae [22] and from bacterial mucous [23].”
Interactions between Diatoms and Bacteria (2012, background): “Many algal species, including diatoms, release significant quantities of monosaccharides and polysaccharides (109, 136) that display a weak binding affinity for iron.”
Mechanisms of Microbial Carbon Sequestration in the Ocean - Future Research Directions (2014, background): “…indicates that additional factors, such as total alkalinity (Mari, 2008; Passow, 2012) or nutrient stoichiometry (Corzo et al., 2000; Staats et al., 2000; Passow, 2002; Beauvais et al., 2006), should be considered in future experiments that investigate TEP aggregation (Passow and Carlson, 2012).”
