Biogeochemical dynamics of the sea-surface microlayer in a multidisciplinary mesocosm study Abstract. The sea-surface microlayer (SML) represents the thin uppermost layer of the ocean, typically less than 1000 µm in thickness. As an interface between the ocean and the atmosphere, the SML pla...

“Biogeochemical dynamics of the sea-surface microlayer in a multidisciplinary mesocosm study”

We show how the ultra-thin SML becomes a hotspot for organic matter processing and microbes during a phytoplankton bloom.
