| Description | : | Marine particles are key vectors in the ocean’s biological carbon pump, yet their distribution, contributions to particulate organic carbon (POC) flux, and the mechanisms controlling these processes remain poorly understood in marginal seas. In this study, we investigated the spatial distribution and carbon export potential of marine particles along the continental slope of the South China Sea (SCS), using in situ imaging data from an Underwater Vision Profiler (UVP 5) collected during a June 2015 cruise. Results reveal strong spatial and vertical variability in particle-mediated carbon export and underscore the role of mesoscale physical processes in regulating carbon flux along the SCS slope. |
