DOI: 10.1002/lno.11140
Abstract: A warmer ocean will change plankton physiological rates, alter plankton community composition, and in turn affect ecosystem functions, such as primary production, recycling, and carbon export. To predict how temperature changes affect plankton community dynamics… read more here.

Re-shaping marine plankton communities: effects of diatom oxylipins on copepods and beyond

DOI: 10.1007/s00227-018-3456-2
Abstract: Diatoms, ubiquitous primary producers in marine systems, synthesize oxylipins, which impair copepod fitness through a maternal effect. While oxylipins do not directly affect the adults, these chemicals alter basic cellular and developmental processes of copepod… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/science.abb3996
Abstract: Change begets change In the Anthropocene, humans are altering ecosystems, causing extinctions, and reassorting species distributions. As we facilitate these changes, we are creating new collections of species. Such “novel communities” are not specific to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/aem.01619-22
Abstract: The marine food web is fueled by phototrophic phytoplankton. These algae are central primary producers responsible for the fixation of ca. 40% of the global CO2. ABSTRACT Microalgae that form phytoplankton live and die in… read more here.
