The ocean is home to a diverse and metabolically versatile microbial community that
performs the complex biochemical transformations that drive the nitrogen cycle, including …

In the Anthropocene, in which we now live, climate change is impacting most life on Earth.
Microorganisms support the existence of all higher trophic life forms. To understand how …

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 …

Ocean warming, primarily resulting from the escalating levels of greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere, leads to a rise in the temperature of the Earth's oceans. These gases act as …

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 …

Predicting the effects of multiple global change stressors on microbial communities remains
a challenge because of the complex interactions among those factors. Here, we explore the …

Marine primary producers are largely dependent on and shape the Earth's climate, although
their relationship with climate varies over space and time. The growth of phytoplankton and …

In the nitrogen-limited subtropical gyres, diazotrophic cyanobacteria, including
Crocosphaera, provide an essential ecosystem service by converting dinitrogen (N2) gas …

Climate warming increasingly drives changes in large-scale ocean physics and
biogeochemistry, and affects the kinetics of biological reactions. Together these factors …
