  abstract = {{T}his study uses {C}u and {Z}n isotopic compositions as proxies of sources and metal transfers in the planktonic food webs from the {M}editerranean {S}ea. {P}lankton was collected in spring 2019 in the deep chlorophyll maximum ({DCM}) along a {N}orth-{S}outh transect including coastal and offshore zones ({MERITE}-{HIPPOCAMPE} campaign). 865{C}u and 866{Z}n were determined on four planktonic size fractions from 60 to 2000 mu m. {C}ombined 865{C}u and 866{Z}n with geochemical tracers ({T}i, particulate organic phosphorus) showed that geogenic particles were ubiquitous with plankton assemblages. {T}he 815{N} ecological tracer showed that planktonic food web was enriched in heavy isotopes of {C}u and {Z}n in the higher trophic levels. 865{C}u were correlated with picoplankton in the offshore zone, and with zooplankton in the southern coastal zone. {F}irmicutes bacteria were found correlated with 866{Z}n in northern and southern coastal zones suggesting decomposition of particulate matter at the {DCM}. {T}hese findings suggest that biogeochemical process may impact {C}u and {Z}n isotopy in the planktonic community.},
