The carbon isotopic signature of the upper mantle is heterogeneous by Yves Moussallam, Kenneth T. Koga, Estelle F. Rose–Koga, Cyril Aubaud, Hyun Joo Lee, Guillaume Georgeais

“…Abstract Knowledge of the carbon isotopic (δ13C) signature of the mantle source region of mid–ocean ridge basalts, is key to understanding carbon cycling on a planetary scale. This value has long been held at –4‰ from the study of popping rocks or –5‰ from the study of peridotitic diamonds, with little evidence of heterogeneity due to scarce direct measurements. …”

A glimpse into the biogeography, seasonality, and ecological functions of arctic marine Oomycota by Brandon T. Hassett, Marco Thines, Anthony Buaya, Sebastian Ploch, R. Gradinger

“…We found Arctic marine Oomycota encode numerous genes involved in parasitism and carbon cycling processes. Ultimately, these data suggest that Arctic marine Oomycota are a reservoir of uncharacterized biodiversity, the majority of which are probably parasites of diatoms, while others might cryptically cycle carbon or interface other unknown ecological processes. …”
