Investigation of Biological Pump Pathways Using the MultipleUnit Large Volume in Situ Filtration System

这是对“生物”的第一阶段调查。 泵，“一个概念，描述了海洋的机制。 该机制包括光合固定的 地表沃茨中的碳，这种新生成的 颗粒有机物通过食物网，其 沉积到深海（和/或由游泳者运输）， 以及随后的商业化。 私家侦探会调查 这种具有原位泵送系统的虚拟机制， 自己的设计和施工。 这个奖项将使他能够 建设抽水系统。

This is the first phase of an investigation of the "biological pump," a concept that describes the mechanism by the ocean. The mechanism incorporates the photosynthetic fixation of carbon in the surface waters, the transfer of this newly-made particulate organic matter through the food web, its sedimentation to the deep sea (and/or transport by swimmers), and its subsequent remineralization. The PI will investigate this conceputal mechanism with an insitu pumping systemof his own design and construction. This award will enable him to construct the pumping system.
