About
The B.A.B. Lab at VIMS and W&M focuses on studying the processes (e.g., primary production, scavenging, degradation) that modulate trace element and organic carbon biogeochemistry across freshwater systems, coastal environments and the open ocean to gain a comprehensive understating of their cycling, fluxes, source-to-sink characterization and their role in the ecosystem.

Our new paper “Control of particulate manganese (Mn) cycling in halocline Arctic Ocean waters by putative Mn‐oxidizing bacterial dynamics” has been published. This large-scale field study combines trace element analysis with microbial data to unravel the geochemistry of Mn in the Canadian Arctic Ocean.
The new paper, lead by collaborator Birgit Rogalla, “Continental and Glacial Runoff Fingerprints in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, the Inuit Nunangat Ocean” has been published. This study aims to provide a linkage between the terrestrial and marine environments, assessing the influence of freshwater inputs on biogeochemical cycles in the Canadian Arctic Ocean.
