📌 New publication in Nature Geoscience by Amano et al., reveals that heterotrophic bacteria substantially contribute to oceanic dissolved inorganic carbon fixation via anaplerotic pathways, accounting for an estimated ~17% of dark DIC fixation and a significant global carbon flux.
Very happy that our paper was published in Limnology & Oceanography #ASLO_LO
Huge shoutout to my co-authors🫰
& big thanks to reviewers and editors!
May the year keep up this energy 🙌

The 3rd Symposium on Oceanography has successfully concluded, bringing together excellent speakers for a vibrant exchange of ideas in ocean science.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to making this year’s event a stimulating and collaborative experience.
📌 New publication in Limnology and Oceanography shows that fluorescent proteins in Madracis corals have species-specific, structurally distinct distributions that correlate with symbiont localization and light exposure, suggesting they contribute to ecological adaptation and species differentiation.
The @microbialoceanv.bsky.social group hosted a CARD-FISH training workshop led by Chie Amano, brining together members of the @univie.ac.at Bio-Oceanography and Marine Biology unit for deep dives into single-cell microbial ecology.
