Phytoplankton are the base of the Antarctic food web, sustain the wealth and diversity of life
for which Antarctica is renowned, and play a critical role in biogeochemical cycles that …

Carbon fixation by phytoplankton near the surface and the sinking of this particulate material
to deeper waters are key components of the biological carbon pump. The efficiency of the …

Across the Southern Ocean, large (≥ 20 μm) diatoms are generally assumed to be the
primary vector for carbon export, although this assumption derives mainly from summertime …

Abstract The Bering Sea and other high‐latitude systems are experiencing unprecedented
changes related to climate warming and the consequent loss of sea ice. Understanding how …

Phytoplankton is composed of a broad-sized spectrum of phylogenetically diverse
microorganisms. Assessing CO2-fixation intra-and inter-group variability is crucial in …

The net balance between photosynthesis and respiration in the surface ocean is a key
regulator of ocean‐atmosphere carbon dioxide (CO2) partitioning, and by extension, Earth's …

In this study, we investigate the occurrence of primary biological aerosol particles (PBAP)
over all sectors of the Southern Ocean (SO) based on a 90‐day data set collected during the …

Abstract The Southern Ocean is a critical component of Earth's climate system, but its
remoteness makes it challenging to develop a holistic understanding of its processes from …

Marine microbial plankton hold high structural and functional diversity, however, high-
resolution data are lacking in a large part of the Global Ocean, such as in subpolar areas of …

Limited knowledge of phytoplankton community structure in the Southern Ocean hampers
our understanding of ecosystem function and its response to changes expected this century …
