Over the past decade, techniques have been presented to derive the community structure of
phytoplankton at synoptic scales using satellite ocean-color data. There is a growing …

Seamounts are submerged marine mountains across the world's oceans at complex
geological and hydrodynamic sites, hosting significant biodiversity and economically …

Abstract The Benguela Upwelling System (BUS) is among the most productive ecosystems
globally, supporting numerous fisheries and ecosystem services in Southern Africa. Sea …

The size structure of phytoplankton communities influences important ecological and
biogeochemical processes, including the transfer of energy through marine food webs. A …

Phytoplankton size structure impacts ocean food-web dynamics and biogeochemical
cycling, and is thus an important ecological indicator that can be utilised to quantitatively …

Phytoplankton are the main primary producers in marine ecosystems, supporting important
food webs. They are recognized as important indicators of environmental changes in oceans …

The three-component model of Brewin et al.(2010) computes fractional contributions of three
phytoplankton size classes (micro-(> 20 μm), nano-(2–20 μm), picophytoplankton (< 2 μm)) …
