Harmful cyanobacterial blooms (= cyanoHABs) are an increasing feature of many
waterbodies throughout the world. Many bloom-forming species produce toxins, making …

Decades of research have illuminated the underlying ingredients that determine the scope
of evolutionary responses to climate change. The field of evolutionary biology therefore …

Zooplankton are the primary energy pathway from phytoplankton to fish. Yet, there is limited
understanding about how climate change will modify zooplankton communities and the …

Global warming and the loss of biodiversity through human activities (eg, land-use change,
pollution, invasive species) are two of the most profound threats to the functional integrity of …

Marine phytoplankton generate half of global primary production, making them essential to
ecosystem functioning and biogeochemical cycling. Though phytoplankton are …

Evolutionary adaptation to temperature and climate depends on both the extent to which
organisms experience spatial and temporal environmental variation (exposure) and how …

Based on the sensitivity of species to ongoing climate change, and numerous challenges
they face tracking suitable conditions, there is growing interest in species' capacity to adapt …

Phytoplankton are responsible for half of all oxygen production and drive the ocean carbon
cycle. Metabolic theory predicts that increasing global temperatures will cause …

Phytoplankton photosynthesis is a critical flux in the carbon cycle, accounting for
approximately 40% of the carbon dioxide fixed globally on an annual basis and fuelling the …

The efficiency of carbon sequestration by the biological pump could decline in the coming
decades because respiration tends to increase more with temperature than photosynthesis …
