Microbes of the surface ocean release, consume, and exchange labile metabolites at time
scales of minutes to days. The details of this important step in the global carbon cycle remain …

Community dynamics are central in microbial ecology, yet we lack studies comparing
diversity patterns among marine protists and prokaryotes over depth and multiple years …

Abstract The Arctic Ocean features extreme seasonal differences in daylight, temperature,
ice cover, and mixed layer depth. However, the diversity and ecology of microbes across …

Abstract Knowledge of zooplankton in situ diet is critical for accurate assessment of marine
ecosystem function and structure, but due to methodological constraints, there is still a …

Background Microbial symbioses in marine invertebrates are commonplace. However,
characterizations of invertebrate microbiomes are vastly outnumbered by those of …

Over the past decades, two key grazers in the Southern Ocean (SO), krill and salps, have
experienced drastic changes in their distribution and abundance, leading to increasing …

Paramuricea clavata is an ecosystem architect of the Mediterranean temperate reefs that is
currently threatened by episodic mass mortality events related to global warming. The …

reconstructing the impact of past climate and environmental changes on marine …

Protists are extremely diverse morphologically and physiologically, and they play important
ecological roles at multiple trophic levels as primary producers and consumers in nearly all …

Syndiniales are a ubiquitous group of protist parasites that infect and kill a wide range of
hosts, including harmful bloom-forming dinoflagellates. Despite the importance of parasitism …
