Phytoplankton and sea ice algae are traditionally considered to be the main primary
producers in the Arctic Ocean. In this Perspective, we explore the importance of benthic …

Dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) is a pivotal component of total dissolved nitrogen pools,
serving as a crucial nitrogen source for phytoplankton. This study investigated the impact of …

Diatoms have unique silica cellular and metabolic characteristics and can grow in various
environments, including wastewater, facilitating pollutant removal. Diatoms provide a …

In the hadal zone of the ocean (6–11 km), the characteristics of sinking marine snow
particles and their attached microbial communities remain elusive, despite their potential …

Nitrogen, as an essential component for living organisms, is the primary limiting nutrient on
Earth. The availability and effective utilization of nitrogenous compounds for metabolic and …

Diatoms can survive long periods in dark, anoxic sediments by forming resting spores or
resting cells. These have been considered dormant until recently when resting cells of …

Microphytobenthos (MPB) form a light-sensitive “nutrient filter” between sediment and
bottom water in shallow coastal systems and the MPB activity is believed to have important …

Abstract The Agulhas Current plays a major role in heat and salt exchange between the
Indian and Atlantic Oceans, yet little is known of its influence on ocean fertility. To investigate …

Understanding nitrogen (N) uptake rates respect to nutrient availability and the
biogeography of phytoplankton communities is crucial for untangling the complexities of …

Taxa-specific responses to the increasing anthropogenic eutrophication offer promising
insights for mitigating harmful algal blooms (HABs) in freshwaters. The present study …
