Response of the Phytoplankton Sinking Rate to Community Structure and Environmental Factors in the Eastern Indian Ocean

Plants, 2022
The phytoplankton sinking rate in the eastern Indian Ocean was measured during spring 2017 based on the SETCOL method. The range of phytoplankton sinking rates was −0.291 to 2.188 md−1, with an average of 0.420 ± 0.646 md−1.

Recurrent Heatwaves Slow Down the Recovery of a Phytoplankton Community. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
ABSTRACTHeatwaves (HWs) are predicted to increase in frequency and severity due to climate change. Yet, there is limited information about how ecological resilience of aquatic communities is going to be impacted by recurrent HWs. Here, we used data from an outdoor freshwater mesocosm experiment where a semi‐natural phytoplankton community was exposed ...

Phytoplankton Biogeography and Community Stability in the Ocean

PLoS ONE, 2010
Despite enormous environmental variability linked to glacial/interglacial climates of the Pleistocene, we have recently shown that marine diatom communities evolved slowly through gradual changes over the past 1.5 million years. Identifying the causes of this ecological stability is key for understanding the mechanisms that control the tempo and mode ...

Bivalve Grazing Can Shape Phytoplankton Communities [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016
The ability of bivalve filter feeders to limit phytoplankton biomass in shallow waters is well-documented, but the role of bivalves in shaping phytoplankton communities is not. The coupled effect of bivalve grazing at the sediment-water interface and sinking of phytoplankton cells to that bottom filtration zone could influence the relative biomass of ...

Storm impacts on phytoplankton community dynamics in lakes. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol, 2020
AbstractIn many regions across the globe, extreme weather events such as storms have increased in frequency, intensity, and duration due to climate change. Ecological theory predicts that such extreme events should have large impacts on ecosystem structure and function. High winds and precipitation associated with storms can affect lakes via short‐term

Exploring the key factors affecting the seasonal variation of phytoplankton in the coastal Yellow Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Marine phytoplankton play crucial roles in the ocean’s biological pump and have great impacts on global biogeochemical cycles, yet the knowledge of environmental variables controlling their seasonal dynamics needs to be improved further, especially in ...

Phytoplankton community of fouling on artificial structures in Makchachkala seaport conditions

Юг России: экология, развитие, 2015
The contents structure and dynamics of phytoplankton community formation of fouling on artificial structures in the Dagestan coastal area of the Caspian sea are researched. The most intensive process of phytoplankton community formation has been noted in

The underlying causes and effects of phytoplankton seasonal turnover on resource use efficiency in freshwater lakes

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The extent of intra‐annual turnover in phytoplankton communities is directly associated with the overall diversity. However, our understanding of the underlying causes and effects of intra‐annual turnover remains limited.

When Nature Counts: Corporate Biodiversity Attention and Access to Bank Finance

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether corporate attention to biodiversity influences firms' access to bank loans, an overlooked question in the emerging biodiversity–finance literature. Using a novel, text‐based measure constructed from 446 biodiversity‐related keywords and applied to Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2000 to 2023, we show that ...

Continental scale metagenomics reveals Microcystis‐induced synchrony among aquatic taxa is exacerbated by trophic cascades

Ecography, EarlyView.
Harmful Microcystis proliferation severely threatens aquatic ecosystems globally, but its impacts on food‐web stability remain poorly understood. Here, we analyzed 1309 metagenomic samples from freshwater ecosystems across China to investigate how Microcystis abundance affects synchrony among taxa in multi‐trophic food webs (from bacteriophages to ...
