A planetary health perspective views human health as a function of the interdependent
relationship between human systems and the natural systems in which we live. The …

This paper begins with a review of the history of remote sensing algorithms for the
determination of particulate inorganic carbon (PIC; aka calcium carbonate), primarily …

The open ocean carbonate pump represents the production and downward flux of
particulate inorganic carbon (PIC) in the form of calcium carbonate synthesized by calcifying …

Calcification and biomass production by planktonic marine organisms influences the global
carbon cycle and fuels marine ecosystems. The major calcifying plankton group …

Coccolithophores are major producers of ocean biogenic calcite, but this process is
predicted to be negatively affected by future ocean acidification scenarios. Since …

Coccolithophores are the most abundant calcifying organisms in modern oceans and are
important primary producers in many marine ecosystems. Their ability to generate a cellular …

Abstract In the Southern Ocean (SO), climate-driven latitudinal migrations of the Antarctic
Circumpolar Current (ACC) frontal system impact large-scale ocean circulation and primary …

Abstract The high-latitude Southern Ocean phytoplankton community is shaped by the
competition between Phaeocystis and silicifying diatoms, with the relative abundance of …

Abstract Using an expanding Southern Ocean fleet of biogeochemical Argo (BGC‐Argo)
floats, we developed a novel approach to estimate annual net community production …

Coccolithophores represent a major component of the marine phytoplankton and contribute
to the bulk of biogenic calcite formation on Earth. These unicellular protists produce minute …
