Globally consistent quantitative observations of planktonic ecosystems
In this paper we review the technologies available to make globally quantitative
observations of particles in general—and plankton in particular—in the world oceans, and …

Carotenoids in algae: distributions, biosyntheses and functions
S Takaichi - Marine drugs, 2011 - mdpi.com
For photosynthesis, phototrophic organisms necessarily synthesize not only chlorophylls but
also carotenoids. Many kinds of carotenoids are found in algae and, recently, taxonomic …

Greenhouse gas emissions from African lakes are no longer a blind spot
Natural lakes are thought to be globally important sources of greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4,
and N2O) to the atmosphere although nearly no data have been previously reported from …

Marine snow morphology illuminates the evolution of phytoplankton blooms and determines their subsequent vertical export
The organic carbon produced in the ocean's surface by phytoplankton is either passed
through the food web or exported to the ocean interior as marine snow. The rate and …

Winter and spring controls on the summer food web of the coastal West Antarctic Peninsula
Understanding the mechanisms by which climate variability affects multiple trophic levels in
food webs is essential for determining ecosystem responses to climate change. Here we use …

Rising CO2 and increased light exposure synergistically reduce marine primary productivity
Carbon dioxide and light are two major prerequisites of photosynthesis. Rising CO2 levels in
oceanic surface waters in combination with ample light supply are therefore often …

Enhanced biological carbon consumption in a high CO2 ocean
The oceans have absorbed nearly half of the fossil-fuel carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted into
the atmosphere since pre-industrial times, causing a measurable reduction in seawater pH …

Implementing and innovating marine monitoring approaches for assessing marine environmental status
Marine environmental monitoring has tended to focus on site-specific methods of
investigation. These traditional methods have low spatial and temporal resolution and are …
