The worldwide proliferation of harmful algal blooms (HABs) both in freshwater and marine
ecosystems make understanding and predicting their occurrence urgent. Trait‐based …

Phytoplankton, the ecological group of microalgae adapted to live in apparent suspension in
water masses, is much more than an ecosystem's engineer. In this opinion paper, we use …

Research using lakes and ponds as model systems contributes both to addressing the
freshwater biodiversity crisis and developing general theories and frameworks for …

Coastal phytoplankton present remarkable variability because of complex patterns and
relationships of hydrological parameters at the land–sea interface. We analysed a time …

Climate change is affecting the global hydrological cycle, causing drastic changes in
