Dissolved and Bubble Gas Concentrations in Sandy Surficial Sediments of the West Florida Sand Sheet

Abstract

We hope to further our understanding of biogeochemical and physical processes controlling the production, transport and consumption of biogenic gasses in diverse sedimentary environments and sediment types. In sandy sediments, our focus is on oxygen produced through benthic primary production by algae living in the surface sediments.
