Isoprene produced by marine phytoplankton acts as a precursor of secondary organic aerosol and thereby affects cloud formation and brightness over the remote oceans. Yet the marine isoprene emission is poorly constrained, with discrepancies among estimates that reach 2 orders of magnitude. Here we present ISOREMS, the first satellite‐only based alg...
The Southern Ocean is a critical component of Earth’s climate system, but its remoteness makes it challenging to develop a holistic understanding of its processes from the small to the large scale. As a result, our knowledge of this vast region remains largely incomplete. The Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE, austral summer 2016/2017) sur...
Isoprene (C5H8) is the most widely emitted biogenic volatile organic carbon (BVOC). It is produced in the biosphere both on land and in the ocean, and in the atmosphere it acts as a precursor of secondary organic aerosols. Isoprene has an eminently biological origin in phytoplankton; but its agents, production and recycling mechanisms, including ph...
Under the framework of the project ‘Assessment and Feasibility Study for the Design of a Citizens’ Climate Assembly in the Balearic Islands’, carried out by the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB) and financed by the European Climate Foundation, we have prepared a proposal for a citizens’ climate assembly in the Balearic Islands, which will be...
Isoprene contributes to the formation of ozone and secondary organic aerosol in the atmosphere, and thus influences cloud albedo and climate. Isoprene is ubiquitous in the surface open ocean where it is produced by phytoplankton, however emissions from the global ocean are poorly constrained, in part due to a lack of knowledge of oceanic sink or de...

Isoprene is a biogenic trace gas produced by terrestrial vegetation and marine phytoplankton. In the remote oceans, where secondary aerosols are mostly biogenic, marine isoprene emissions affect atmospheric chemistry and influence cloud formation and brightness. Here, we present the first compilation of new and published measurements of isoprene co...
Biogenic Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are essential constituents of marine ecosystems, where they are sources of atmospheric reactivity, indicators of the ecosystem state, and chemical cues for organism-organism communication. Most of VOCs result from photobiological and photochemical processes; however, their light-driven dynamics and short-t...
Biogenic Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) other than DMS are largely overlooked constituents of coral reef ecosystems. Even though they are sources of atmospheric reactivity and potential chemical cues for organism-organism communication, their production and cycling processes by the reef components are poorly constrained.
We measured VOCs in sea...
Transparent exopolymer particles (TEPs) are a class of gel
particles, produced mainly by microorganisms, which play important roles in
biogeochemical processes such as carbon cycling and export. TEPs (a) are
colonized by carbon-consuming microbes; (b) mediate aggregation and sinking
of organic matter and organisms, thereby contributing to the biolo...
Inland and transitional aquatic systems play an important role in global carbon (C) cycling. Yet, the C dynamics of wetlands and floodplains are poorly defined and field data is scarce. Air-water [Formula: see text] fluxes in the wetlands of Doñana Natural Area (SW Spain) were examined by measuring alkalinity, pH and other physiochemical parameters...
In spite of the known role of Transparent Exopolymer Particles (TEP) in the process of marine aggregation (and consequently in the oceanic carbon cycle) there are two noticeable gaps in the measurement of this variable. First, TEP studies are very scarce in tropical-subtropical areas. The only three reported data are from the Great Barrier Reef, fr...
