The Santos Basin (SB) is the main petroliferous basin in Brazilian continental margin and one of most studied marine areas Brazil. However, historical data suggest that new efforts should be carried out to acquire quantitative biological data, especially deep sea, establish baseline essential ocean variables different ecosystems for future monitoring programs. energy company Petrobras planned executed 24 oceanographic cruises over a period 2 years assess benthic (SANSED cruise) pelagic...
Primary production is essential in shaping biogeochemical cycles and microbial ecosystem dynamics. The distribution of chemosynthetic rates pelagic zones their participation the carbon cycle, especially when compared to photosynthetic Southwestern Atlantic Ocean, are poorly constrained. This study aimed measure photo- productivity analyze spatial abiotic drivers. Samples for photosynthesis experiments collected at surface deep chlorophyll maximum (DCM) were incubated with 14C-bicarbonate...
