Particulate organic carbon depth profile

The distributions of various fractions of the TOC in many marine areas have been reported. In Table II, a summary of some of the reported particulate organic carbon (POC) results from various oceanic environments is presented. A survey of some of the geographic areas where analyses of dissolved (DOC) or total (TOC) concentrations have been reported is shown in Fig. 4. The depth and geographic relationships of TOC results which I have analyzed are summarized in Table III. In Fig. 5, depth profiles of averaged...
