 \, University of Maryland Center for Volunteerism-Horn Point Laboratory\, 
 will present\, 'Interactions between marine bacteria and marine snow drive
  microbial ecology and ocean processes\,' as part of the Appalachian Labor
 atory's Visiting Scholar Seminar Series\, on Thursday\, September 27\, 201
 8\, at 3:30pm\, in room 109.  For more on Dr. Cram's work\, please visit h
 is research page.  \n\n\nAbstract: \n\n\nThroughout the water column\, sin
 king “marine snow” particles provide habitats and nutrients for diverse ma
 rine microbial communities. Members of these communities in turn degrade t
 he particles\, thereby determining the flux of organic carbon into the dee
 p ocean. In this two-way interaction\, structurally and chemically diverse
  marine snow particles both shape and are shaped by phylogenetically and p
 hysiologically diverse microbial communities. In turn\, the particles driv
 e biogeochemical phenomena such as the global carbon cycle and determine t
 he habitat distribution of essentially every free living and particle asso
 ciated microorganism. In this seminar\, I’ll describe analytical and obser
 vational approaches that I have used to study temporal variability of micr
 obial communities such as those in the San Pedro Ocean Time-series (SPOT).
  Using statistical techniques and a novel network association analysis app
 roach\, I demonstrate that particles drive much of this variability. I wil
 l go on to describe modeling approaches that I have used to illuminate how
  microorganisms interact with physical and chemical processes to shape the
  flux of marine particles. I will conclude by describing how I will contin
 ue to integrate observational\, experimental and modelling approaches to f
 urther examine ways in which microbial communities affect and are affected
  by suspended and sinking particles.
