MetabolomicsDissolved metabolites from the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study: 2016-2019

Organic carbon in seawater plays a significant role in the global carbon cycle. The concentration and composition of dissolved organic carbon, operationally defined in this project as organic carbon that passes through a 0.2 µm filter, reflect the actions of the biological community and chemical ...

MetabolomicsInsights into the controls on metabolite distributions along a latitudinal transect of the western Atlantic Ocean

Metabolites, or the small organic molecules that are synthesized by cells during metabolism, comprise a complex and dynamic pool of carbon in the ocean. They are an essential form of information, linking genotype to phenotype at the individual, population and community levels of biological organi...

MetabolomicsDissolved organic carbon compounds in deep-sea hydrothermal vent fluids from the East Pacific Rise at 9°50′N

Deep-sea hydrothermal vents are unique ecosystems that may release chemically distinct dissolved organic matter to the deep ocean. Here, we describe the composition and concentrations of polar dissolved organic compounds observed in low and high temperature hydrothermal vent fluids at 9°50′N on t...

MetabolomicsOrganic sulfur: a spatially variable, labile, and understudied component of marine organic matter

Sulfur (S) is a major heteroatom in organic matter. This project evaluated spatial variability in the concentration and molecular-level composition of organic sulfur along gradients of depth and latitude. We measured the concentration of total organic sulfur (TOS) directly from whole seawater. Ou...

MetabolomicsUsing network analysis to discern compositional patterns in ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry data of dissolved organic matter

RATIONALE: Marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) has long been recognized as a large and dynamic component of the global carbon cycle. Yet, DOM is chemically varied and complex and these attributes present challenges to researchers interested in addressing questions about the rol...

MetabolomicsComposition of the marine exometabolome is more stable than the functionally redundant microbial community in the oligotrophic North Atlantic

Untargeted features from the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) site collected during the time period spanning 2016 to 2019. Metabolites were sampled from surface seawater to 1000 m deep and throughout the year. Dissolved organic matter extracts were analyzed in positive and negative ion m...

MetabolomicsMigratory Zooplankton Excreta and its Influence on Prokaryotic Communities

Particulate organic matter (fecal pellets) from zooplankton has been demonstrated to be important nutrient sources for the pelagic prokaryotic community. Significantly less is known about the chemical composition of the dissolved organic matter (DOM) produced by these eukaryotes and its infl...

MetabolomicsRelease of Ecologically Relevant Metabolites by the Cyanobacterium, Synechococcus elongatus CCMP 1631
Phytoplankton are known to release organic compounds that fuel secondary production by heterotrophic bacteria. Here we show that an abundant marine cyanobacterium, Synechococcus elongatus, contributes a variety of nitrogen-rich and sulfur-containing compounds to dissolved organic matter. A combinati...

MetabolomicsMetabolites from surface seawater collected in Narragansett Bay
In aquatic environments, the production and consumption of organic compounds is directly tied to the metabolic potential of the in situ microbial community. The community’s metabolic potential can be assessed using metatranscriptomics, which is a measure of gene expression in the environment. More r...

MetabolomicsChitin utilization by marine picocyanobacteria and the evolution of a planktonic lifestyle.
Marine picocyanobacteria Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus, the most abundant photosynthetic cells in the oceans, are generally thought to have a primarily single-celled and free-living lifestyle. However, while studying the ability of picocyanobacteria to supplement photosynthetic car...
