Biological carbon pump responses to multiscale physical processes: a review of sediment trap studies in the South China Sea
Accurately assessing the capacity of the modern ocean to photosynthetically fix and sequester atmospheric CO2, termed the biological carbon pump (BCP), is a key component in studies on the marine carbon cycle and the global climate system. Particulate organic carbon (POC) flux into the ocean interio...
