Phytoplankton

  1. Phytoplankton composition shifts with warming and light conditions
    Cellular model predicts how phytoplankton protein, carbohydrate, and lipid composition will shift under climate warming, with divergent regional responses that reshape marine food web nutrition.
  2. Hyperspectral Remote Sensing for Harmful Algal Bloom Detection: Pseudo-nitzschia in the Northeast Pacific
    Hyperspectral remote sensing distinguishes toxic Pseudo-nitzschia blooms from benign diatoms via unique 560nm spectral signature, enabling scalable harmful algal bloom detection.
  3. Eutrophic-lake phytoplankton were more sensitive to silver nanoparticles
    Single-cell flow cytometry analysis of silver nanoparticle toxicity effects on natural phytoplankton assemblages from contrasting trophic lake environments.
  4. Nutrient Uptake and Growth Kinetics of Novel Environmental Phytoplankton Isolates from the Galápagos Archipelago
    Study characterizes growth kinetics and functional traits of Galápagos phytoplankton isolates, revealing taxon-specific deviations from allometric scaling predictions.
  5. Fronts may host a distinct phytoplankton community
    Statistical framework combining finite mixtures, EM and hierarchical Bayesian inference reveals a distinct phytoplankton community comprising ~70% of observations within a Mediterranean oceanic front.
