Objective The EUMELI operation aims to make an integrated study of fluxes of particles at each step of their voyage, from the time they are formed until they are finally buried in the sediment of the East Tropical Atlantic. Process studies combined satellite techniques and measurements at sea to: 1) link the chlorophyll pigments to fluxes of particulate carbon; 2) associate the particulate organic matter cycle with the cycle of other elements, from surface to sediment. Three sites (Eutrophic, Mesotrophic and Oligotrophic) were the framework for the exercise.
