Summary:Mercator Ocean International Workshop, December 2023.-- 37 pages, figures The biological carbon pump (BCP): light and shadows: ● Biological carbon pump transfers plankton-produced particulate organic carbon (POC) to the ocean interior (Volk & Hoffert et al. 1985; Martin et al. 1987) ● Historical strong focus on mechanisms regulating export; several “carbon pumps” acknowledged nowadays (Boyd et al. 2019) ● Poor quantitative knowledge of the fate of exported POC through the mesopelagic layer, where most attenuation of the vertical flux occurs (Giering et al. 2014) Peer reviewed
