Zooplankton are major consumers of phytoplankton primary production in marine
ecosystems. As such, they represent a critical link for energy and matter transfer between …

The current generation of Earth system models used by the United Nations to project future
climate scenarios (CMIP6) relies heavily on marine biogeochemical models to track the fate …

Thriving in both epipelagic and mesopelagic layers, Rhizaria are biomineralizing protists,
mixotrophs or flux-feeders, often reaching gigantic sizes. In situ imaging showed their …

Macroecological scaling patterns, such as between prey and predator biomass, are
fundamental to our understanding of the rules of biological organization and ecosystem …

Tiny ocean plankton (picoplankton) are fundamental for the functioning of the biosphere, but
the ecological mechanisms sha** their biogeography were partially understood …

Shelled pteropods and planktic foraminifers are calcifying zooplankton that contribute to the
biological carbon pump via the sinking of their calcareous shells. However, their importance …

Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is a key species of the Southern Ocean, impacted by
climate change and human exploitation. Understanding how these changes affect the …

Photosynthesis in the surface ocean and subsequent export of a fraction of this fixed carbon
leads to carbon dioxide sequestration in the deep ocean. Ecological relationships among …

Abstract The Barents Sea, as the largest Arctic shelf region with high productivity, supports
vital commercial fisheries. The region's ecosystem is significantly impacted by both warm …

Locally enhanced biological production and increased carbon export are persistent features
at oceanic density fronts. Studies often assume biological properties are uniform along fronts …
