On the Variability of Phytoplankton Photophysiology Along a Latitudinal Transect in the North Atlantic Surface Ocean

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 129, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Phytoplankton photosynthesis is the first step of energy capture in the open ocean and is therefore fundamental for global biogeochemical processes and ecosystem functioning. High‐resolution methods are required to fully capture the variability of marine photosynthesis and its environmental drivers.
