Introduction and overview / Understanding roles of microbes in marine pelagic food webs : a brief history / Bacterial and archaeal community structure and its patterns / Genomics and metagenomics of marine prokaryotes / Photoheterotrophic marine prokaryotes / Ecology and diversity of picoeukaryotes / Organic matter-bacteria interactions in seawater / Physiological structure and single-cell activity in marine bacterioplankton / Heterotrophic bacterial respiration / Resource control of bacterial dynamics in the sea / Protistan grazing on marine bacterioplankton / Marine viruses : community dynamics, diversity, and impact on microbial processes / Molecular ecological aspects of nitrogen fixation in the marine environment / Nitrogen cycling in sediments / David L. Kirchman -- Evelyn Sherr and Barry Sherr -- Jed A. Fuhrman and Åke Hagström -- Mary Ann Moran -- Oded Béjà and Marcelino T. Suzuki -- Alexandra Z. Worden and Fabrice Not -- Toshi Nagata -- Paul A. del Giorgio and Josep M. Gasol -- Carol Robinson -- Matthew J. Church -- Klaus Jürgens and Ramon Massana -- Mya Breitbart, Mathias Middelboe, and Forest Rohwer -- Jonathan P. Zehr and Hans W. Paerl -- Bo Thamdrup and Tage Dalsgaard.
In addition to drawing on the rich history of microbiology, the book includes discussion of the latest advances in biological and chemical oceanography and limnology to examine the role of marine microbes and viruses in the oceans. It explores the diverse collection of microbes (and viruses) found in the oceans and describes many of the processes mediated by these microbes in aquatic environments.
