ABSTRACT Phytoplankton, such as the coccolitophore Gephyrocapsa huxleyi (G. huxleyi), has a major ecological impact through photosynthesis—the production of oxygen and organic material. A significant threat to G. huxleyi populations is viral infection with the specific Gephyrocapsa huxleyi virus (GhV).

WISER deliverable D3.1-4: guidance document on sampling, analysis and counting standards for phytoplankton in lakes [PDF]
Sampling, analysis and counting of phytoplankton has been undertaken in European lakes for more than 100 years (Apstein 1892, Lauterborn 1896, Lemmermann 1903, Woloszynska 1912, Nygaard 1949).

Southern Ocean Phytoplankton in a Changing Climate
Phytoplankton are the base of the Antarctic food web, sustain the wealth and diversity of life for which Antarctica is renowned, and play a critical role in biogeochemical cycles that mediate global climate.

Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

Remote sensing of phytoplankton community composition in the northern Benguela upwelling system
Marine phytoplankton in the northern Benguela upwelling system (nBUS) serve as a food and energy source fuelling marine food webs at higher trophic levels and thereby support a lucrative fisheries industry that sustain local economies in Namibia ...

Dimensions of marine phytoplankton diversity
. Biodiversity of phytoplankton is important for ecosystem stability and marine biogeochemistry. However, the large-scale patterns of diversity are not well understood and are often poorly characterized in terms of statistical relationships with factors ...

Spatial dynamics of a nutrient–phytoplankton system with toxic effect on phytoplankton [PDF]
The production of toxins by some species of phytoplankton is known to have several economic, ecological, and human health impacts. However, the role of toxins on the spatial distribution of phytoplankton is not well understood. In the present study, the spatial dynamics of a nutrient-phytoplankton system with toxic effect on phytoplankton is ...

Phytoplankton communities affect carbon dynamics worldwide, strongly influencing the quality and quantity of organic carbon in coastal ecosystems. Yet, we still know little about the impacts of changing phytoplankton community composition on the potential carbon pathways in estuaries and coasts.
