Their current and future emission estimates are still uncertain due to incomplete process understanding and, therefore, inexact quantification across different biogeochemical regimes. Here we present the first concurrent measurements of both gases together with related fractions of the dissolved organic matter (DOM) pool, i.e.,solid-phase extractable dissolved organic sulfur (DOSSPE), chromophoric (CDOM) and fluorescent dissolved organic,matter (FDOM) from the Eastern Tropical South Pacific (ETSP). These observations are used to estimate in-situ production,rates and identify their drivers. We find different limiting factors of marine photoproduction: while OCS production is,limited by the humic-like DOM fraction that can act as a photosensitizer, high CS2 production coincides with high DOSSPE,concentration. The lack of correlation between OCS production and DOSSPE may be explained by the active cycling of,sulfur between OCS and dissolved inorganic sulfide via OCS photoproduction and hydrolysis. In addition, the only existing,parameterization for OCS dark production is validated and updated with new rates from the ETSP and the Indian Ocean. Our,results will help to predict oceanic concentrations and emissions of both gases on regional and, potentially, global scales.
