Some SMP Achievements
Related to new production and export
New discoveries and surprises
   Net production and export of DOC
   Importance of ballasting for sedimentation flux
Changes in conceptual understanding
   Importance of other new nutrients (iron, silica, N2)
   Iron-Grazer interactions
   Roles of large organisms as exporters (not that new, really)
   Patchy, pulsed character of export
Advances/refinements in technique
   DOC analysis
   Thorium-234
New and improved estimates of rates and fluxes
   Global total and new production (decreased uncertainty?)
   Regional carbon budgets
   Vast increase in obs of grazing and bacterial rates
