Cyanobacteria are the most ancient phytoplankton on the planet and form harmful algal
blooms in freshwater, estuarine, and marine ecosystems. Recent research suggests that …

Bacterioplankton (bacteria and archaea) are indispensable regulators of global element
cycles owing to their unique ability to decompose and remineralize dissolved organic matter …

Phytoplankton blooms are an important, widespread phenomenon in open oceans, coastal
waters and freshwaters, supporting food webs and essential ecosystem services. Blooms …

The observation that the relative importance of picophytoplankton is greatest in warm and
nutrient‐poor waters was tested here based on a comprehensive review of the data …

Continental margins are disproportionally important for global primary production, fisheries
and CO2 uptake. However, across the Northeast Atlantic shelves, there has been an …

Zooplankton abundance, biomass (biovolume) and taxonomic composition were studied
within an annual cycle (August 1995–October 1996) in the Bay of Blanes (northwest …

Global ocean biogeochemistry models currently employed in climate change projections
use highly simplified representations of pelagic food webs. These food webs do not …

Climate affects the timing and magnitude of phytoplankton blooms that fuel marine food
webs and influence global biogeochemical cycles. Changes in bloom timing have been …

We investigated the feeding by 18 red-tide dinoflagellate species on the cyanobacterium
Synechococcus sp. We also calculated grazing coefficients by combining the field data on …

Multiyear comparisons of bacterioplankton succession reveal that environmental conditions
drive community shifts with repeatable patterns between years. However, corresponding …
