Phaeocystis is a cosmopolitan, bloom-forming phytoplankton genus that contributes
significantly to global carbon and sulfur cycles. During blooms, Phaeocystis species produce …

The sea area adjacent to the Changjiang River estuary is the most notable region for
harmful algal blooms (HABs) of dinoflagellates in China. Large-scale blooms of …

We investigated the size and trophic structure of the annual planktonic protist community
structure in the ice-free Adventfjorden in relation to environmental factors. Our high …

Elucidating the interactions between algal and microbial communities is essential for
understanding the dynamic mechanisms regulating algal blooms in the marine environment …

The genus Phaeocystis is distributed globally and has considerable ecological,

Some algae possess a multi-morphic life cycle, either in the form of free-living solitary cells
or colonies which constantly occur in algal blooms. Though colony formation seems to …

Marine microorganisms play a critical role in regulating atmospheric CO 2 concentration via
the biological carbon pump. Deposition of continental mineral dust on the sea surface …

Abstract The Labrador Sea is an important oceanic sink for atmospheric CO 2 because of
intensive convective mixing during winter and extensive phytoplankton blooms that occur …
