In the tropics, thermal stratification (during warm conditions) may contribute to a shallowing
of the mixed layer above the nutricline and a reduction in the transfer of nutrients to the …

The future response of marine ecosystem diversity to continued anthropogenic forcing is
poorly constrained. Phytoplankton are a diverse set of organisms that form the base of the …

Climate affects the timing and magnitude of phytoplankton blooms that fuel marine food
webs and influence global biogeochemical cycles. Changes in bloom timing have been …

The efficiency of carbon sequestration by the biological pump could decline in the coming
decades because respiration tends to increase more with temperature than photosynthesis …

Abstract Models of marine biogeochemistry capture the effects of temperature on
phytoplankton growth via the monotonic, exponential Eppley coefficient, without considering …

Phytoplankton photosynthesis is a critical flux in the carbon cycle, accounting for
approximately 40% of the carbon dioxide fixed globally on an annual basis and fuelling the …

Our perspective highlights potentially important links between disparate fields—biological
oceanography, climate change research, and experimental evolutionary biology. We focus …

Climate change will unquestionably influence global ocean plankton because it directly
impacts both the availability of growth-limiting resources and the ecological processes …

Marine phytoplankton and zooplankton form the basis of the ocean's food-web, yet the
impacts of climate change on their biodiversity are poorly understood. Here, we use an …

Climate change challenges organisms to adapt or move to track changes in environments in
space and time. We used two measures of thermal shifts from analyses of global …
