Tracing 13C‐enriched dissolved and particulate organic carbon in the bacteria‐containing coral reef sponge Halisarca caerulea: Evidence for DOM‐feeding
Here we report on the trophodynamics of the bacteria-containing coral reef sponge Halisarca caerulea. The assimilation and respiration of the 13C-enriched substrates glucose, algal-derived dissolved… Expand
