Antagonistic and synergistic responses to solar ultraviolet radiation and increased temperature of phytoplankton from cenotes (sink holes) of the Yucatán Peninsula, México [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cenotes (sink holes) are karstic formations characteristic of the Yucatán Peninsula and are the main source of fresh water in the region. Because of their tropical location, they receive high levels of solar radiation and are exposed to high temperatures.

The essential role of large research vessels in marine ecosystem observations and ocean sustainability

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Our understanding of marine ecosystems and ability to manage them sustainably has come from multidisciplinary observations made repeatedly over long periods of time. These long‐term ecosystem observations depend on the capabilities of large research vessels, which play an essential role in the collection of global ocean observations.

Exploring the link between micro-nutrients and phytoplankton in the Southern Ocean during the 2007 austral summer

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Bottle assays and large-scale fertilisation experiments have demonstrated that, in the Southern Ocean, iron often controls the biomass and the biodiversity of primary producers.

Fluorescence as a tracer of the susceptibility of dissolved organic matter to photodegradation in the Arctic Ocean

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract The Arctic Ocean exports a large amount of terrestrial dissolved organic matter (DOM) to the Nordic seas. With climate change, the supply of terrestrial DOM from the Arctic Ocean will increase while less sea ice might lead to an increased loss of terrestrial DOM due to photodegradation.

Seasonally migrating zooplankton strongly enhance Southern Ocean carbon sequestration

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐latitude zooplankton can sequester millions of tons of carbon due to their seasonal migration from the surface ocean to depth, and their respiration and mortality during overwintering. This seasonal vertical migration pump (SVMP) efficiently removes carbon but not limiting nutrients such as iron from the surface layers.

Occurrence and toxicity of Microcystis aeruginosa (Cyanobacteria) in the Paraná River, downstream of the Yacyretá dam (Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cyanobacteria constitute the main toxin producers in inland water ecosystems and have extensive global distribution. The presence of hepatotoxins in aquatic environments is hazardous to human and animal health; even though the presence and identification

Production of extracellular reactive oxygen species by phytoplankton: past and future directions

open access: yesJournal of Plankton Research, 2018
In aquatic environments, phytoplankton represent a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide and hydrogen peroxide. Many phytoplankton taxa also produce extracellular ROS under optimal growth conditions in culture.

Blooms of filamentous cyanobacteria reduce zooplankton quality and pelagic food web efficiency

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Cyanobacterial blooms in marine and freshwater ecosystems have increased in magnitude, frequency, and distribution worldwide during recent decades. Filamentous cyanobacteria are of unsuitable size for mesozooplankton feeding and of poorer nutritional quality than other phytoplankton taxa. The production and quality of higher trophic levels are
