This project investigates the role of heterotrophic nitrogen-fixing microorganisms in the ocean, focusing on their relationship with dissolved organic matter. By conducting shipboard experiments, it aims to understand their distribution, diversity, and nitrogen fixation activity, which could enhance knowledge of the oc…
Primary production in the oceans is strongly limited by the availability of fixed nitrogen.
In open ocean nutrient-impoverished areas, which make up ~50% of the global ocean surface, nitrogen is mainly provided through the process of biological atmospheric nitrogen (N2) fixation. N2 fixation is carried out by the so termed diazotrophs, marine microorganisms that may belong to the cyanobacteria, bacteria or archaea.
For many years, autotrophic diazotrophs were thought to be the most abundant diaz…
