Spatial and seasonal distribution of methane and its microbial oxidation in the water column of the central Baltic Sea Jakobs, Gunnar , 1982- (VerfasserIn) Rehder, Gregor , 1966- (GutachterIn) Thiel, Volker (GutachterIn) Universität Rostock (Grad-verleihende Institution) Universität Rostock Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Fakultät (Grad-verleihende Institution) Text theses Text Hochschulschrift 2014 2014 eng electronic resourceremoteComputermedienOnline-Ressource1 Online-Ressource The vertical transport of methane from the deep water body towards the redox zone as well as differing hydrographic conditions within the redox zone were identified as major factors that determine the pelagic methane oxidation. The deep water methane inventory of the eastern Gotland Basin showed a seasonal pattern, with concentrations increasing during spring/summer and decreasing during fall/winter as a direct result of the seasonal varying vertical turbulent diffusivity. The western Gotland Basin showed no clear correlation between the seasons and the observed deep water methane variability.<eng> vorgelegt von Gunnar Jakobs Dissertation Universität Rostock 2014 540 570 35.99 http://rosdok.uni-rostock.de/resolve/urn/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2016-0046-3 Spatial and seasonal distribution of methane and its microbial oxidation in the water column of the central Baltic Sea--(DE-627)814429483 urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2016-0046-3 oclc: 948563789 ppn: (DE-627)858172283
