Tintinnid ciliates of Amundsen Sea (Antarctica) plankton communities [PDF]
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 ...

Planktonic ciliates are an important component of microzooplankton, but there is limited understanding of their responses to changing environmental conditions in the Pacific Arctic Region. We investigated the variations of ciliate community structure and

Thermal Acclimation and Adaptation in Marine Protozooplankton and Mixoplankton
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

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 ...

Microzooplankton community structure in a subtropical South-West Atlantic coastal site
The microzooplankton community structure (species abundance, biomass, diversity) was investigated at a coastal marine station on the South-West Atlantic Ocean (34°23′S–53° 45′W, Uruguay).

Trophic upgrading and mobilization of wax esters in microzooplankton
Heterotrophic protists play pivotal roles in aquatic ecosystems by transferring matter and energy, including lipids, from primary producers to higher trophic predators. Using Oxyrrhis marina as a model organism, changes to the non-saponifiable protist lipids were investigated under satiation and starvation conditions.

Planktonic foraminiferal assemblages reflect warming during two recent mid-latitude marine heatwaves
Under future climate scenarios, ocean temperatures that are presently extreme and qualify as marine heatwaves (MHW) are forecasted to increase in frequency and intensity, but little is known about the impact of these events on one of the most common ...

Saturation Approach to Determine Grazing Mortality in Picoeukaryote and Synechococcus Populations
A substantial component of phytoplankton production in the oceans is channeled through protistan grazers but understanding what dictates the magnitude of this process on a regional and temporal basis is limited, in part, by a shortage of experimental ...
