Lipids comprise a significant fraction of sinking organic matter in the ocean and play a crucial role in the carbon cycle. Despite this, our understanding of the processes that control lipid degradation is limited. We combined nanolipidomics and imaging … Lipids comprise a significant fraction of sinking organic matter in the ocean and play a crucial role in the carbon cycle.
