Diatoms are small eukaryotic plants with over 10,000 known species, constituting one of the
major components of the phytoplankton in freshwater and marine environments …

Abstract The North Pacific marine heatwave of 2014–2016 (nicknamed “The Blob”) impacted
marine ecosystems from California to Alaska, USA, with cascading effects on fisheries and …

The link between anthropogenic nutrient loads and the magnitude and extent of diatom and
Phaeocystis colony blooms in the Southern Bight of the North Sea was explored with the …

Maintenance of genetic diversity in eukaryotic microbes reflects a synergism between
reproductive mode (asexual vs. sexual) and environmental conditions. We determined …

This study aimed at simulating different degrees of winter warming and at assessing its
potential effects on ciliate succession and grazing-related patterns. By using indoor …

Building on a summary of how turbulence influences biological systems, we reviewed key
phytoplankton-turbulence laboratory experiments (after Peters and Redondo in Scientia …

Shifts in the timing and magnitude of the spring plankton bloom in response to climate
change have been observed across a wide range of aquatic systems. We used meta …

Distribution, production and grazing of the copepod community were investigated in the
northern Aegean Sea, which is characterized by a permanent thermohaline front. Cruises …

In order to characterize copepod feeding in relation to microbial plankton community
dynamics, we combined metabarcoding and metabolome analyses during a 22‐day …

Deriving maps of phytoplankton taxa based on remote sensing data using bio‐optical
properties of phytoplankton alone is challenging. A more holistic approach was developed …
