  2. MarineMicrobiome “The marine microbiome is the total of microorganisms and viruses in the ocean and seas and in any connected environment, including the seafloor and marine animals and plants.“ “The diversity of microbial life remains unquantified and largely unknown, and could represent a hidden treasure for human society.” The Marine Microbiome An Untapped Source of Biodiversity and Biotechnological Potential Editors: Stal, Lucas J., Cretoiu, Mariana Silvia (Eds.)

  3. Why R&D onMicrobialSystems Request for more knowledge about the broad spectra of participants in ocean biochemical cycles has increased in line with our awareness of anthropogenic pressures on marine ecosystems It impossible to ignore the threats to the fundamental ecosystem services provided by the oceans The North Atlantic in particular is subjected to changes on various scales Increasedpressure
