Info

Microbial Loop 1. Bacteria are abundant and take up large Amounts of nutrients from the water column 2. Bacteria are consumed by ciliates and other Heterotrophs 3. These heterotrophs are consumed by other smaller zooplankton, which incorporates bacterially derived nutrients into the planktonic food web 4. Viruses very abundant in surface waters, some attack phytoplankton (coccolithophores) and break down other cells.
