Are the oceans turning into deserts? Rising temperature, increasing surface stratification,
and decreasing vertical inputs of nutrients are expected to cause an expansion of warm …

Ocean-related global change has strongly affected the competition between key marine
phytoplankton groups, such as diatoms and dinoflagellates, especially with the deleterious …

Oceanic nutrient cycles are coupled, yet carbon-nitrogen-phosphorus (C: N: P) stoichiometry
in marine ecosystems is variable through space and time, with no clear consensus on the …

The stoichiometric coupling of carbon to limiting nutrients in marine phytoplankton regulates
the magnitude of biological carbon sequestration in the ocean. While clear links between …

Measurements of pH and nitrate from the Southern Ocean Carbon and Climate
Observations and Modeling array of profiling floats were used to assess the ratios of …

In this article, we present Bio-GO-SHIP, a new ocean observing program that will incorporate
sustained and consistent global biological ocean observations into the Global Ocean Ship …

Surface ocean marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) serves as an important reservoir of
carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) in the global ocean, and is produced and …

Concentrations and elemental stoichiometry of suspended particulate organic carbon,
nitrogen, phosphorus, and oxygen demand for respiration (C: N: P:− O2) play a vital role in …

Phytoplankton elemental composition regulates the efficiency of energy and material
transfer in the interface between phytoplankton and their consumers. The ratio of particulate …

Environmentally driven variability in the elemental stoichiometry of ocean plankton plays a
key role in ocean biogeochemical processes. Recent studies have identified clear regional …
