                                Despite the abundance of mineral nutrients in the ocean, the concentration of essential vitamins, particularly B vitamins, is extremely low in seawater, often at picomolar levels. This scarcity makes vitamins a limiting factor for the growth of many marine organisms, revealing a complex and delicate balance in the aquatic ecosystem.
