Climate warming increasingly drives changes in large-scale ocean physics and
biogeochemistry, and affects the kinetics of biological reactions. Together these factors …

Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus are the two most abundant photosynthetic organisms
on Earth, with a strong influence on the biogeochemical carbon and nitrogen cycles. Early …

Prochlorococcus is both the smallest and numerically most abundant photosynthesizing
organism on the planet. While thriving in the warm oligotrophic gyres, Prochlorococcus …

The euphotic zone of the surface ocean contains distinct physical-chemical regimes that
vary in light and nutrient concentrations as an inverse function of depth. The most numerous …

Statistically derived species distribution models (SDMs) are increasingly used to predict
ecological changes on a warming planet. For Prochlorococcus, the most abundant …

Metabolism is the complex network of chemical reactions occurring within every cell and
organism, maintaining life, mediating ecosystem processes and affecting Earth's climate …

B-vitamins are essential micronutrients for marine plankton. Additionally, we now know
many marine plankton cannot synthesize B-vitamins de novo (from scratch) and thus are …

Establishing links between microbial diversity and environmental processes requires
resolving the high degree of functional variation among closely related lineages or ecotypes …

Understanding the characteristics and structure of populations is fundamental to
