Microbial indicators as a diagnostic tool for assessing water quality and climate stress in coral reef ecosystems (2017, background): “In marine environments DOM is primarily of Mar Biol (2017) 164:91 1 3 91 Page 6 of 18 phytoplankton origin, as 2–50% of the photoautotrophically fixed carbon leaks into the water column (reviewed by Thornton 2014).”
Scientists’ warning to humanity: microorganisms and climate change (2019, positive): “…ocean temperatures, acidification and decreased nutrient supplies are projected to increase the extracellular release of dissolved organic matter from phytoplankton, with changes in the microbial loop possibly causing increased microbial production at the expense of higher trophic levels 122 .”
Formation of Chromophoric Dissolved Organic Matter by Bacterial Degradation of Phytoplankton-Derived Aggregates (2018, background): “Phytoplankton release 2–50% of photosynthetically fixed carbon as dissolved organic matter (DOM) through active exudation and passive leakage (Thornton, 2014), contributing to the largest reservoir of reduced carbon on earth (662 Pg C) (Hansell et al.”
