Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) are critical for the health of aquatic and
terrestrial organisms; therefore, understanding the production, distribution, and abundance …

Visible spectral radiometric measurements from space, commonly referred to as ocean-
colour measurements, provide a rich stream of information on ocean biota as well as on …

Marine ecosystems are responsible for virtually all production of omega-3 (ω3) long-chain
polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which are essential nutrients for vertebrates. Current …

Phytoplankton are the main source of energy and omega‐3 (n‐3) long‐chain essential fatty
acids (EFA) in aquatic ecosystems. Their growth and biochemical composition are affected …

Essential fatty acids (EFA), which are primarily generated by phytoplankton, limit growth and
reproduction in diverse heterotrophs. The biochemical composition of phytoplankton is well …

The inclusion of organic compounds in freshly emitted sea spray aerosol (SSA) has been
shown to be size-dependent, with an increasing organic fraction in smaller particles. Here …

Global warming is increasing the frequency and intensity of extreme thermal events, with
inevitable consequences for marine ecosystems and organisms. Phytoplankton is at the …

The use of fatty acid (FA) tracers is a growing tool in trophic ecology, yet FA profiles are
driven by a number of abiotic and biotic parameters, making interpretation and appropriate …

Aquatic single-cell organisms have long been believed to be unique primary producers of
omega-3 long-chain (≥ C 20) polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω3 LC-PUFA). Multiple …

Coastal‐estuarine systems are among the most productive marine ecosystems and their
special role in producing harvestable fish and shellfish has been attributed to high primary …
