Abstract Models of the marine carbon cycle assume that virtually all heterotrophic production
in the open ocean is derived from near-surface carbon fixation (primary production) by …

Though diel variations are geographically widespread phenomena among phytoplankton
and zooplankton, knowledge is limited regarding diel variations in planktonic ciliate …
