BACKGROUND Biological dinitrogen (N2) fixation, the reduction of atmospheric N2 to
ammonia, is important for maintaining the fertility of the oceans by providing biologically …

The oceans take up over 1 million tons of anthropogenic CO2 per hour, increasing dissolved
p CO2 and decreasing seawater pH in a process called ocean acidification (OA). At the …

The ocean is a key component of the Earth system (Chapter 1) as it provides essential life
supporting services (Inniss et al. 2017). For example, it stores heat trapped in the …

The evolution of nitrogen fixation undoubtedly altered nearly all corners of the biosphere,
given the essential role of nitrogen in the synthesis of biomass. To date, there is no unified …

Growth of the prominent nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Trichodesmium is often limited by
phosphorus availability in the ocean. How nitrogen fixation by phosphorus-limited …

The interacting effects of global changes—including increased temperature, altered
precipitation, reduced acidification and increased dissolved organic matter loads to lakes …

The N 2-fixing cyanobacterium Trichodesmium is an important player in the oceanic nitrogen
and carbon cycles. Trichodesmium occurs both as single trichomes and as colonies …

Increasing atmospheric CO 2 concentration negatively impacts aquatic ecosystems and may
exacerbate the problem of undesirable cyanobacterial bloom development in freshwater …

Much has been published on the effects of ocean acidification on plankton since the original
Royal Society 2005 report. In addition to direct effects on primary production, it is clear that …

Cyanobacteria, as vital components of aquatic ecosystems, face increasing challenges due
to acidification driven by various anthropogenic and natural factors. Understanding how …
