We estimated primary productivity and distributions of carbon in the phytoplankton, micro-zooplankton, and suspended and dissolved matter in various areas of the World Ocean to increase our information about the organic carbon cycle in the surface layer of the sea. Primary productivity ranged from a
The deficit of 234 Th relative to its radioactive parent 238 U in the surface ocean can yield reliable estimates of vertical Particulate Organic Carbon (POC) fluxes to deeper waters, but only when coupled with an accurate ratio of POC concentration to activity of 234 Th on sinking matter. Assuming a
## Abstract Riverine total suspended sediment (TSS) at the lower reach section of the Zengjiang River, a lowβturbidity river in the southern China, was sampled on a 4βweek basis from March 2002 to February 2003. The gross TSS was divided into sedimentary and suspended fractions (SED and SUS) by the
