Caption from Oceanus magazine, Vol. 47, No. 1, Pg. 37:
The little guys who make the ocean’snitrogen cycle go round –
The marine bacteria Trichodesmium come in a variety of species (above). At left, a slick of Trichodesmium floats on the ocean surface in the western South
Pacific in January 2007. Trichodesmium are essential cogs in the ecological
machinery that cycles chemicals through the oceans—chemicals that sustain life and influence global climate.
