Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Plankton play a key role in marine food webs by producing and transferring organic matter and energy to higher trophic levels. To define the trophic structure and interactions within the planktonic communities in the Gulf of Naples, we determined carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios in particulate organic matter (POM, <20 μm ...

Icebergs boost phytoplankton growth in the Southern Ocean [PDF]
, 2008 Icebergs which calve from the Antarctic ice shelves and drift in the Southern Ocean deliver fresh water, dust and minerogenic particles to the surface ocean along the iceberg's path.

Phytoplankton assemblage Characterization along the Mediterranean coast of Morocco during autumn [PDF]
, 2020 The present study aimed to assess the composition, abundance and diversity of phytoplankton assemblage along the Moroccan Mediterranean Coast. Phytoplankton samples were collected in October 2018 at 48 stations from M’diq bay in the West to Saïdia in the

Phytoplankton Communities in Rudrasagar Lake, Tripura (North-East India) – A Ramsar Site
International Journal of Bio-Resource and Stress Management, 2020 Phytoplankton is the integral link of food webs in the transfer of energy to higher aquatic communities that can also act as biological indicators for evaluation of trophic status of an aquatic ecosystem. The present study was carried out during October

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Phytoplankton play a central role in ocean biogeochemistry and understanding their composition and variability is critical for monitoring marine ecosystem dynamics. Continuous spectrophotometric measurements (using a Seabird Sci. AC‐S) along ship tracks enable high‐resolution measurements of particle spectral absorption (apλ$$ {a}_p\left ...

Effects of light and nutrient gradients on the taxonomic composition, size structure and physiological status of the phytoplankton community within a temperate eutrophic estuary [PDF]
, 2006 Estuaries are important ecosystems which are affected by a large range of environmental factors. It is important to measure, characterise and monitor the ecological status of estuaries, and this is the contribution of this thesis for phytoplankton ...

The effects of nutrient additions to phytoplankton size structures based on chlorophyll in the Equatorial Pacific Ocean [PDF]
, 2023 Phytoplankton, the primary producers of ocean, have produced over half of the oxygen in the atmosphere and use dissolved carbon dioxide to accumulate biomass which is critical to the biological pump.

Oikos, EarlyView.Processes underlying metacommunity structuring are important for understanding species tracking of environmental change at a landscape scale. Species' functional traits more closely reflect their ecological roles than taxonomy, therefore, adopting a functional approach allows us a better understanding of metacommunity structuring.

Phytoplankton adaptation to marine ecosystems: insights into photophysiological functional diversity [PDF]
, 2011 The aim of this study was to investigate the diversity of the photoprotective responses activated by phytoplankton at short temporal scales, i.e. the non-photochemical quenching of Chl a fluorescence (NPQ) associated with the xanthophyll cycle (XC ...

Temporal and spatial variations in phytoplankton productivity in surface waters of a warm-temperate, monomictic lake in New Zealand [PDF]
, 2010 Surface phytoplankton productivity measurements were carried out in morphologically complex Lake Rotoiti with the objective of defining variations between sites and seasons, and the dominant environmental drivers of these variations.
