Effect of large- and small- bodied zooplankton on phytoplankton in a eutrophic oxbow [PDF]
, 2005 Macrozooplankton and microzooplankton effects on the phytoplankton were measured in situ in a eutrophic lake. Indigenous phytoplankton were incubated for 5 days in 301 mesocosms with either the macro- and microzooplankton (complete), microzooplankton ...

Protistan Communities Within the Galápagos Archipelago With an Emphasis on Micrograzers
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 The Galápagos Archipelago is a globally significant biodiversity hotspot. However, compared to the relatively well-known megafauna, the distribution and ecological significance of marine protists in this system are poorly understood.

Tintinnid ciliates of Amundsen Sea (Antarctica) plankton communities [PDF]
Polar Research, 2013 The Amundsen Sea has been described as one of the most productive and dynamic pelagic systems in Antarctica and is one of the least studied. Based on samples from 15 stations in the Amundsen Sea, we describe for the first time the composition of the ...

Integrating functional diversity, food web processes, and biogeochemical carbon fluxes into a conceptual approach for modeling the upper ocean in a high-CO2 world [PDF]
, 2005 Marine food webs influence climate by channeling carbon below the permanent pycnocline, where it can be sequestered. Because most of the organic matter exported from the euphotic zone is remineralized within the "upper ocean" (i.e., the water column ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 Microzooplankton community structure, distribution, growth, and herbivory were examined in the eastern Fram Strait and Arctic Ocean shelf affected by the Atlantic water inflow in May (during the spring bloom) and August (post-bloom, summer stratification)

Thermal Acclimation and Adaptation in Marine Protozooplankton and Mixoplankton
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Proper thermal adaptation is key to understanding how species respond to long-term changes in temperature. However, this is seldom considered in protozooplankton and mixoplankton experiments. In this work, we studied how two heterotrophic dinoflagellates

Killing the predator: impacts of highest-predator mortality on the global-ocean ecosystem structure [PDF]
BiogeosciencesRecent meta-analyses suggest that microzooplankton biomass density scales linearly with phytoplankton biomass density, suggesting a simple, general rule may underpin trophic structure in the global ocean.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Ciliates are pivotal components of the marine microbial food web, exerting profound impacts on oceanic biogeochemical cycling. However, the temporal dynamics of ciliate assemblages on a short time scale in the highly fluctuating estuarine ecosystem ...

Brown Tide Symposium and Workshop : 15-16 July 1991 [PDF]
, 1991 The 'brown tide' bloom of an aberrant Chrysophyte sp. phytoplankter occurred for more than 18 months and extended into both upper (cover map) and lower Laguna Madre, Texas.

Phytoplankton cell size: intra- and interspecific effects of warming and grazing [PDF]
, 2012 Decreasing body size has been suggested as the third universal biological response to global warming after latitudinal/altitudinal range shifts and shifts in phenology.
