Material for students:

Practical D - Biogeochemical Argo data

Practical E - Apparent oxygen utilization and mass balance approaches (documents #1 & #2)

 

Aim:

-   To train early career researchers in the latest science and technologies related to mesopelagic respiration

-   To provide hands-on experience in using traditional and state-of-the-art methods to measure and model mesopelagic respiration

-   To enable knowledge exchange with the institutional colleagues of the course participants

-   To develop an international network of researchers focused on mesopelagic processes and ocean carbon storage
