Shifting ice phenology and ice extent linked to harmful algal bloom severity
Abstract Ice cover on lakes can have far‐reaching and profound effects on ecosystem structure and function. However, the duration and spatial extent of ice cover is changing rapidly with warming aquatic ecosystems. This loss of ice creates an urgent need to understand how lakes will function without ice cover, both during the ice‐on and ice‐free season,

The Community Structure of Picophytoplankton in Lake Fuxian, a Deep and Oligotrophic Mountain Lake
Spatial and seasonal dynamics of picophytoplankton were investigated by flow cytometry over a year in Lake Fuxian, a deep and oligotrophic mountain lake in southwest China.

Isolates of the marine picocyanobacteria, Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus, are often accompanied by diverse heterotrophic “contaminating” bacteria, which can act as confounding variables in otherwise controlled experiments.

Lateral Coastal Blue Carbon Export Fuels a Deep‐Ocean Carbon Sink in an Oligotrophic Warm Pool
Abstract Coastal blue carbon (CBC) ecosystems export organic matter offshore, but their contribution to deep‐ocean carbon sequestration remains insufficiently quantified. We measured depth‐resolved particulate organic carbon (POC) fluxes, δ13C signatures, and environmental DNA (eDNA) from sediment traps deployed at 150, 500, and 1,000 m in the western ...

Phytoplankton σPSII and Excitation Dissipation; Implications for Estimates of Primary Productivity
The effective absorption cross section for photochemistry of Photosystem II in the light (σPSII′) comprises the probability of light capture by Photosystem II and the quantum yield for subsequent photochemistry. σPSII′ is used to model photosynthesis and

Photosynthetic primary production in the Mesoproterozoic
Summary The Mesoproterozoic atmosphere had more CO2 and less O2 than at present. While the upper ocean was oxygenated, the deeper ocean was euxinic or ferruginous. Primary production was performed by Chlorobia, Cyanobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Archaeplastida.

Distribution of micro-organisms along a transect in the South-East Pacific Ocean (BIOSOPE cruise) using epifluorescence microscopy [PDF]
The distribution of selected groups of micro-organisms was analyzed along a South-East Pacific Ocean transect sampled during the BIOSOPE cruise in 2004.

Bioactive Potential of Two Marine Picocyanobacteria Belonging to Cyanobium and Synechococcus Genera
Coccoid cyanobacteria produce a great variety of secondary metabolites, which may have useful properties, such as antibacterial, antiviral, anticoagulant or anticancer activities.

By synthesizing decades of culture data with modern oceanographic datasets, we modelled trace metal limitation of phytoplankton. Our analysis reaffirms the critical role of iron but additionally highlights a significant, growing impact of zinc on the biological pump in future oceans.

The composition, biomass and dynamics of autotrophic picoplankton (APP, size range of 0.2–2 μm) in a subtropical reservoir (Cerrillos, Puerto Rico) were examined from January to December 2013. Samples were collected monthly in the limnetic zone.
