Highlights•Most multidriver temperature× CO 2 phytoplankton experiments use only two
levels of each driver.•Current studies cannot produce interaction surfaces for CO 2 and …

Coccolithophores, a type of unicellular calcifying algae, are widely distributed across the
global ocean. They contribute to the ocean carbon cycle by producing organic and inorganic …

Extreme wind and rainfall events have become more frequent phenomena, impacting
coastal ecosystems by inducing increased mixing regimes in the upper mixed layers (UML) …

The elemental composition of marine microorganisms (their C: N: P ratio, or stoichiometry) is
central to understanding the biotic and biogeochemical processes underlying key marine …

Multiple drivers are threatening the functioning of the microbial food webs and trophic
interactions. Our understanding about how temperature, CO 2, nutrient inputs, and solar …

Responses of marine primary production to a changing climate are determined by a concert
of multiple environmental changes, for example in temperature, light, pCO2, nutrients, and …

Nutrient conditions influence the physiology and stoichiometry of marine phytoplankton.
While extensive studies have documented the effects of abundances and types of nutrients …

Lower pH and elevated temperature alter phytoplankton growth and biomass in short-term
incubations, but longer-term responses and adaptation potential are less well-studied. To …

Global climate change leads to simultaneous changes in multiple environmental drivers in
the marine realm. Although physiological characterization of coccolithophores has been …

In addition to ocean acidification, a significant recent warming trend in Chinese coastal
waters has received much attention. However, studies of the combined effects of warming …
