In their natural environment plants and algae are exposed to rapidly changing light
conditions and light intensities. Illumination with high light intensities has the potential to …

Global increases in atmospheric CO2 and temperature are associated with changes in
ocean chemistry and circulation, altering light and nutrient regimes. Resulting changes in …

Aquatic Photosynthesis is a comprehensive guide to understanding the evolution and
ecology of photosynthesis in aquatic environments. This second edition, thoroughly revised …

The reliable and efficient production of microalgae in large-scale commercial culture,
whether in open ponds or in closed photobioreactors, requires a good understanding of the …

The xanthophyll cycle represents one of the important photoprotection mechanisms in plant
cells. In the present review, we summarize current knowledge about the violaxanthin cycle of …

Diatoms are a key taxon of eukaryotic phytoplankton and a major contributor to global
carbon fixation. They are ubiquitous in the marine ecosystem despite marked gradients in …

Marine phytoplankton have many obvious characters, such as rapid cell division rates and
large population sizes, that give them the capacity to evolve in response to global change on …

Oligotrophic and productive areas of the ocean differ in plankton community composition
and biomass transfer efficiency. Here, we describe the plankton community along a …

Diatoms are the major players in the biochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus,
and silicon with a strong impact on global climate not only in the ocean but also in the …

Marine phytoplankton show complex community structures and biogeographic distributions,
the net results of physiological and ecological trade‐offs of species responses to fluctuating …
