Global increases in atmospheric CO 2 and temperature are associated with changes in
ocean chemistry and circulation, altering light and nutrient regimes. Resulting changes in …

Abstract Changes in marine plankton communities driven by environmental variability impact
the marine food web and global biogeochemical cycles of carbon and other elements. To …

In the coming century, life in the ocean will be confronted with a suite of environmental
conditions that have no analog in human history. Thus, there is an urgent need to determine …

We analyzed the cellular content of C, N, P, S, K, Mg, Ca, Sr, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Co, Cd, and
Mo in 15 marine eukaryotic phytoplankton species in culture representing the major marine …

Phytoplankton is a nineteenth century ecological construct for a biologically diverse group
of pelagic photoautotrophs that share common metabolic functions but not evolutionary …

In many community assemblages, the abundance of organisms is a power-law function of
organism size. In phytoplankton communities, changes in size structure associated with …

The relative supply of energy and elements available to organisms in the environment has
strong effects on their physiology, which, in turn, can alter important ecological processes. …

… Light absorption may be responsible for the anomalous size scaling of the metabolic rates
of phytoplankton (Finkel and Irwin 2000). Unlike heterotrophs, autotrophs depend on the …

Anthropogenic climate change has shifted the biogeography and phenology of many
terrestrial and marine species. Marine phytoplankton communities appear sensitive to climate …

Marine phytoplankton show complex community structures and biogeographic distributions,
the net results of physiological and ecological trade‐offs of species responses to fluctuating, …
