Influence of diatom diversity on the ocean biological carbon pump
Diatoms sustain the marine food web and contribute to the export of carbon from the surface
ocean to depth. They account for about 40% of marine primary productivity and particulate …

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 …

Global analysis of ocean phytoplankton nutrient limitation reveals high prevalence of co-limitation
Nutrient availability limits phytoplankton growth throughout much of the global ocean. Here
we synthesize available experimental data to identify three dominant nutrient limitation …

Marine mixotrophy increases trophic transfer efficiency, mean organism size, and vertical carbon flux
Mixotrophic plankton, which combine the uptake of inorganic resources and the ingestion of
living prey, are ubiquitous in marine ecosystems, but their integrated biogeochemical …

The temperature dependence of microbial community respiration is amplified by changes in species interactions
Respiratory release of CO2 by microorganisms is one of the main components of the global
carbon cycle. However, there are large uncertainties regarding the effects of climate …
