- BOUM aims to produce a detailed study of biological production and its fate in several distinct locations, representing different systems, of the Mediterranean Sea. These distinct systems represent, at a regional scale, the main oceanographic features of contrasting environments found in the oligotrophic ocean. We will determine whether organic matter production, remineralization and export processes are longitudinally different and if so, study how these differences are related to the structure of the planktonic community.
