Full Description
The focus of this exam is on the biochemical processes conducted by marine microorganisms and their influence on oceanic biogeochemical cycles.
Marine microorganisms are pivotal in regulating the flow of energy and nutrients in oceanic systems, which in turn impacts carbon sequestration and climate regulation.
Candidates will demonstrate an understanding of microbial processes, including carbon and nitrogen cycles, and articulate their significance in maintaining ecosystem balance.
Discussions will center on case studies that illustrate how changes in microbial metabolism can affect broader environmental outcomes.
Sample Questions
- What role do marine microorganisms play in the carbon cycle?
- How can changes in microbial biogeochemistry affect climate regulation?
