摘要
Dissolved organic matter in the ocean constitutes one of the largest pools of reduced carbon on the Earth’s surface. An analysis of observations from the Pacific Ocean shows that as organic matter is oxidized biologically, fluorescent dissolved organic matter is produced in situ in the ocean interior and is resistant to biological degradation on centennial to millennial timescales.
