Metal dissolution from atmospheric aerosol deposition to the oceans is important in
enhancing and inhibiting phytoplankton growth rates and modifying plankton community …

Abstract The Southern Ocean is widely recognized as a potential cause of the lower
atmospheric concentration of CO 2 during ice ages, but the mechanism is debated. Focusing …

Ocean phytoplankton biomass is predicted to decline in Earth system models, due in large
part to an expansion of nutrient-deplete ocean regions. However, the representation of …

Projected responses of ocean net primary productivity to climate change are highly
uncertain. Models suggest that the climate sensitivity of phytoplankton nutrient limitation in …

The global ocean's oxygen inventory is declining in response to global warming, but the
future of the low-oxygen tropics is uncertain. We report new evidence for tropical …

Phytoplankton productivity and export sequester climatically significant quantities of
atmospheric carbon dioxide as particulate organic carbon through a suite of processes …

Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus are the most abundant photosynthesizing organisms
in the oceans. Gene content variation among picocyanobacterial populations in separate …

Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient that limits primary productivity throughout the surface
of the Southern Ocean. Here, we present the first high-resolution depth profiles for dissolved …

Temporal and spatial patterns of paleoenvironmental change on the Upper Yangtze Block
during the Ordovician-Silurian transition remain debatable and somewhat self-contradictory …

The NASA EXport Processes in the Ocean from RemoTe Sensing (EXPORTS) program was
established to better quantify the pathways of the biological carbon pump in order to gain a …
