Smaller phytoplankton size‐groups control the stoichiometry of the autotrophic community
Abstract In the marine environment, the prevailing paradigm is that larger organisms like diatoms are primary contributors to phytoplankton stoichiometry. Numerous studies investigated the stoichiometry of phytoplankton groups or total community but its dynamics among different size‐groups are not resolved.

Abstract Islands in the tropical Pacific supply elevated nutrients to nearshore waters that enhance phytoplankton biomass and create hotspots of productivity in otherwise nutrient‐poor oceans. Despite the importance of these hotspots in supporting nearshore food webs, the spatial and temporal variability of phytoplankton enhancement and changes in the ...

Pteropods as early‐warning indicators of ocean acidification
Abstract Aragonite undersaturation (Ωar$$ {\Omega}_{\mathrm{ar}} $$ <$$ < $$ 1) events are projected to rapidly increase in frequency and duration in the Antarctic Weddell Sea by 2050. Thecosome pteropods (pelagic snails) are bioindicators of ocean acidification (OA) because their aragonite shell dissolves easily at low Ωar$$ {\Omega}_{\mathrm{ar ...

Abstract Winter phytoplankton blooms have been documented in several temperate lakes, yet the mechanisms triggering them remain poorly understood. Understanding the ecology of these blooms is key for predicting succession patterns, especially given the impact of climate change on winter conditions.
