Domain-specific¶
- Biological Pump
- the e-ratio and f-ratio, the Martin-curve remineralization profile, and the alkalinity–DIC stoichiometry across the soft-tissue, carbonate, and microbial-carbon variants. Mesopelagic and benthic ecology — the sinking flux as food supply: the export reaching depth, and its attenuation by fragmentation, grazing, and bacterial dissolution, sustaining mid-water and seafloor communities, including the active diel vertical migration of zooplankton. Paleoclimatology — pump-strength change as a CO₂ lever: the iron-fertilization hypothesis and stratification shifts invoked to explain glacial-interglacial atmospheric CO₂ drawdown across Pleistocene cycles. Anthropogenic-perturbation and geoengineering studies — the pump under stress: warming-driven stratification weakening export, ocean iron fertilization as a proposed intervention, and the effect of removing whales and mesopelagic fishes on pump strength. Freshwater limnology — the same skeleton ported: the biological pump operating in stratified, meromictic lakes (Lake Tanganyika) with the identical surface-production / deep-decomposition / sediment-burial structure

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This work's DOI is recorded above but has not been resolved against an external catalogue, so nothing here confirms the work exists.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
