PlanktoScope: Affordable Modular Quantitative Imaging Platform for Citizen Oceanography
The oceans represent 97% of all water on Earth and contain microscopic, drifting life, plankton, which drives global biogeochemical cycles. A major hurdle in assessing marine plankton is the planetary scale of the oceans and the logistical and economic ...

The Plankton Lifeform Extraction Tool: a digital tool to increase the discoverability and usability of plankton time-series data [PDF]
Plankton form the base of the marine food web and are sensitive indicators of environmental change. Plankton time series are therefore an essential part of monitoring progress towards global biodiversity goals, such as the Convention on Biological ...

Plankton comprises unicellular plants - phytoplankton - and generally small (millimetres or less) animals - zooplankton - that are adrift on the currents. Phytoplankton are responsible for about 45% of global annual primary production and are grazed by zooplankton, which in turn are suitably sized food items for predators including commercially ...

Fungal parasitism on diatoms alters formation and bio–physical properties of sinking aggregates
Fungal parasites are found to effectively control the fate of phytoplankton-derived organic matter, potentially enhancing remineralization and reducing sedimentation in freshwater and coastal systems.

Impacts of Microplastics on the Swimming Behavior of the Copepod Temora turbinata (Dana, 1849)
Zooplankton are prone to the ingestion of microplastics by mistaking them for prey. However, there is a lack of knowledge about the impacts of microplastic availability on zooplankton behavior.

The plankton of Richards Bay [PDF]
A study of the plankton of the estuary system of Richards Bay in South Africa has been carried out by the plankton research group at the Port Elizabeth Museum. This study in conjunction with other ecological studies provide an environmental survey of the site of the Richards Bay Harbour now under construction. 2.

Plankton are not passive tracers: Plankton in a turbulent environment [PDF]
Spectral analysis was performed on a series of oceanographic transects collected using an optical plankton counter and conductivity‐temperature‐depth probe. The “physical” time series (i.e., temperature) power spectra showed a single passive scaling relationship across the entire range of sampling scales (1–8192 s) that was expected from turbulence ...
