In the ocean, tiny algae constantly produce sugars that serve as food for other marine life. Invisible to the naked eye but enormously important, bacteria use these sugars in their own unique way – and in doing so influence how much carbon is stored or released back into the sea. These processes are not yet fully understood, and that is precisely what we are trying to decipher in our research.
