Global biogeochemical impacts of phytoplankton: a trait‐based perspective
Phytoplankton are key players in the global carbon cycle, contributing about half of global
primary productivity. Within the phytoplankton, functional groups (characterized by distinct …

The impact of temperature on marine phytoplankton resource allocation and metabolism
Marine phytoplankton are responsible for∼ 50% of the CO2 that is fixed annually worldwide,
and contribute massively to other biogeochemical cycles in the oceans. Their contribution …

Mechanistic constraints on the trade-off between photosynthesis and respiration in response to warming
Phytoplankton are responsible for half of all oxygen production and drive the ocean carbon
cycle. Metabolic theory predicts that increasing global temperatures will cause …

Trait-based modelling in ecology: a review of two decades of research
Trait-based approaches are an alternative to species-based approaches for functionally
linking individual organisms with community structure and dynamics. In the trait-based …

Biogeographic patterns in ocean microbes emerge in a neutral agent-based model
A key question in ecology and evolution is the relative role of natural selection and neutral
evolution in producing biogeographic patterns. We quantify the role of neutral processes by …

Multiple environmental controls on phytoplankton growth strategies determine adaptive responses of the N: P ratio
The controls on the 'Redfield'N: P stoichiometry of marine phytoplankton and hence the N: P
ratio of the deep ocean remain incompletely understood. Here, we use a model for …
