The study of the marine microbiome is essential to understanding the health of our oceans and their impact on the planet. These microorganisms play a crucial role in the regulation of biogeochemical cycles, oxygen production, degradation of pollutants and the marine food chain. In addition, the marine microbiome influences the global climate and is a valuable resource for biotechnology and medicine. Investigating this microscopic world helps us protect our marine ecosystems and address urgent environmental challenges.
