Abstract: Copepod fecal pellets are ubiquitous throughout the oceans. Their production and export can represent a highly efficient pathway of carbon export. However, the role these fecal pellets play in carbon export in the Changjiang (Yangtze)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecss.2018.12.001
Abstract: Abstract Copepods fecal pellets (FPs) are important contributors to carbon export in the ocean, but their role in the carbon export is poorly understood in the eutrophic coastal sea, where copepods biomass is always high.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmars.2016.00289
Abstract: Planktonic grazers such as salps may have a dominant role in iron (Fe) cycling in surface waters of the Southern Ocean (SO). Salps have high ingestion rates and egest large, fast sinking fecal pellets (FPs)… read more here.
