[1] Increasing attention is dedicated to the implementation of suitable marine forecast systems for the estimate of the state of the ocean. Within the framework of the European MyOcean infrastructure, the pre-existing short-term Mediterranean Sea biogeochemistry operational forecast system has been upgraded by assimilating remotely sensed ocean color data in the coupled transport-biogeochemical...

Complex interactions between microbial communities and geochemical processes drive the major element cycles control function of marine sediments as a dynamic reservoir organic matter. Sulfate reduction is globally dominant pathway anaerobic mineralisation main source sulfide. The effective re-oxidation this sulfide at direct or indirect expense oxygen prerequisite for aerobic life on our planet...

Abstract The meridional overturning circulation consists of an upper and lower cell. Southern Ocean Biogeochemical Divide (SOBD) is the boundary between two cells in surface Ocean, but its location poorly constrained. Localizing SOBD important because biological nutrient utilization north south have fundamentally different consequences for global ocean primary production carbon sequestration. H...

Elevated nitrogen deposition and climate change alter the vegetation communities and carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling in peatlands. To address this issue we developed a new process-oriented biogeochemical model (PEATBOG) for analyzing coupled carbon and nitrogen dynamics in northern peatlands. The model consists of four submodels, which simulate: (1) daily water table depth and depth profile...
