Fig. 2. Accumulation of organic matter, surfactants, prokaryotic cells, and virus-like particles (VLPs) in water samples.

Fig. 2

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) measured in technical duplicates (a), mean +/- standard deviation for concentration of surfactants (n = number of technical replicates) (b), and counts of VLPs and prokaryotic cells in slick SML, non-slick SML, slick SSW and non-slick SSW (c). DOC and surfactants were measured from sampling site #1 only. SML sea-surface microlayer, SSW subsurface water (~70 cm depth).
