Phosphorus (P) is an essential nutrient for marine phytoplankton and indeed all life forms.
Current data show that P availability is growth‐limiting in certain marine systems and can …

Phosphorus (P) is a required element for life. Its various chemical forms are found
throughout the lithosphere and hydrosphere, where they are acted on by numerous abiotic …

Phosphorus is an essential macronutrient for all marine microorganisms. Dissolved organic
phosphorus (DOP) is an integral, dynamic part of the marine organic matter pool and of the …

The macronutrient phosphorus is critical to the physiological ecology of eukaryotic
microalgae and cyanobacteria. What are the forms of phosphorus produced and used by …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) can be defined as the DNA pool recovered from an
environmental sample that includes both extracellular and intracellular DNA. There has …

A common assumption of a constant nitrogen-to-phosphorus ratio (N: P) of 16: 1 in marine
particulate organic matter (POM) appears to be invalidated by observations of major spatial …

We have a limited understanding of the consequences of variations in microbial biodiversity
on ocean ecosystem functioning and global biogeochemical cycles. A core process is …

The supply of nutrients is a fundamental regulator of ocean productivity and carbon
sequestration. Nutrient sources, sinks, residence times, and elemental ratios vary over broad …

Micro-cyanobacteria and pico-cyanobacteria coexist in many lakes throughout the world.
Their distinct cell sizes and nutrient utilization strategies may lead to dominance of one over …

To minimize the global transfer of harmful aquatic organisms and pathogens, the
International Maritime Organization (IMO) has introduced the standard in Regulation D-2 to …
