Marine Snow Processing

Marine Snow Processing is a biogeochemical mechanism that describes the microbial and faunal transformation, aggregation, and remineralization of sinking particulate organic matter in the water column, distinguishing it from other deep-sea carbon flux pathways by its reliance on particle-associated communities and stepwise decomposition processes.
