First Quantification of the Controlling Role of Humic Substances in the Transport of Iron Across the Surface of the Arctic Ocean

Abstract: One of the main reasons behind our current lack of understanding of iron cycling in the oceans is our inability to characterize the ligands that control iron solubility, photosensitivity, reactivity, and bioavailability. We currently lack consensus about the nature and origin of these ligands. Here, we present the first field application of a new methodological development that allows the selective quantification of the fraction of Fe complexed to humic substances (HS). In the HS-rich surface Arctic waters, in… Show more

“…Similarly, as detailed above for the shelf stations, the exudation of EPS from diatoms and haptophytes could be an important addition to the organic ligand pool. Moreover, polysaccharide ligands will be released by microbial cells during the bloom as well as via grazing (Sato et al, 2007;Laglera et al, 2019b) and viral lysis (Poorvin et al, 2011;Slagter et al, 2016).…”

“…In the HNLC Southern Ocean, the availability of Fe has a direct impact on the early spring phytoplankton bloom, and thus on primary productivity (Moore et al, 2013). The Fe limitation in the Southern Ocean could thus have a direct effect on the amount of atmospheric CO2 sequestration (Le Quéré et al, 2016;Arrigo et al, 2008;Raven and Falkowski, 1999) to the deep ocean via the biological pump (De La Rocha, 2006;Lam et al, 2011).…”
