Cruise Inventory Information
| Long name | RV Pelagia (64PE) cruise PE093 |
|---|---|
| Short name | PE093 |
| Objectives and Narrative | The benthic subprogramme within OMEX focuses on transport and modes of transport of organic matter from the shelf to the deep, and on questions as how the differences in organic carbon input to the seafloor at different locations is reflected in the geochemistry (early diagenesis) and biology (abundances and activities of macro- and meiofauna, and of heterotrophic bacteria). |
