Named for its resemblence of falling snow, ‘marine snow’ is an essential part of all #ocean ecosystems.

Marine snow is decaying organic matter that continuously falls from the surface to the deep-sea, supporting food chains along the way.

Marine #snow is also an important component of the global #carbon cycle!
