Marine biodiversity and ecosystem function relationships: The potential for practical monitoring applications (2015, unknown): “Aggregates may disintegrate physically (Miligan and Hill, 1998), as well as being solubilized and remineralized by micro-organisms (Smith et al., 1992) and zooplankton (Kiørboe, 2000) whilst settling.”
Microbial ecology of organic aggregates in aquatic ecosystems (2002, background): “…showed that most animals visited and fed on aggregates for only a few minutes, but the behavior of individual taxa exhibited 188 Simon et al.: Microbial ecology of organic aggregates pronounced differences (Green & Dagg 1997, Shanks & Del Carmen 1997, Shanks & Walters 1997, Kiørboe 2000).”
Formation and fate of marine snow: small-scale processes with large- scale implications (2001, background): “Recent studies suggest that the degradation rates of aggregates and faecal pellets due to these processes can be very high, leading to an efficient retention of limiting elements in the upper ocean (Kiørboe, 2000).”
Bacterial growth and grazing on diatom aggregates: Respiratory carbon turnover as a function of aggregate size and sinking velocity (2000, background): “1998), which may also be important for their residence time and their remineralization in the water column (Graham et al. 2000; Kiørboe 2000).”
Marine snow, organic solute plumes, and optimal chemosensory behavior of bacteria (2001, methodology): “Figure taken from Kiørboe et al. (2001). The model”
Quantification of marine snow fragmentation by swimming euphausiids (2004, background): “However, more recent studies have found that both microbially mediated POC removal (Ploug and Grossart 1999, 2000) and particle grazing by invertebrates (Kiørboe 2000), individually, could be adequate to account for the loss of sinking particles.”
Microbial dynamics on diatom aggregates in Øresund, Denmark (2003, background): “The sizespecific steady state of bacteria and protozoa abundance on aggregates depends on colonization rate, growth, predation, and detachment of attached bacte- 75 Mar Ecol Prog Ser 249: 69–78, 2003 ria (Kiørboe 2000, Kiørboe et al. 2002).”
Fluid motion and solute distribution around sinking aggregates. II. Implications for remote detection by colonizing zooplankters (2001, background): “Thus, turnover rates of aggregated material may be high, and a substantial fraction of aggregated material may be remineralized before the aggregate leaves the upper mixed layer (Kiørboe 2000).”
Turnover of dead jellyfish: stimulation and retardation of microbial activity (2006, background): “Presumably, colonizers consist of organisms such as bacteria, flagellates, ciliates and copepods, similar to those observed on marine snow (Kiørboe 2000).”
Effects of phytoplankton community on production, size, and export of large aggregates: A world‐ocean analysis (2009, background): “The vertical flux mediated by these sinking particles is reduced by processes such as copepod coprehexy and coprophagy on fecal pellets (Lampitt et al. 1990; Wassmann et al. 2000) or copepod grazing on particles (Kiørboe 2000).”
