Vertically migrating phytoplankton fuel high oceanic primary production
Marine net primary production (NPP) is remarkably high given the typical vertical separation of 50–150 m between the depth zones of light and...
-
Primary Production
The phytoplankton and macrophytes are the main primary producers in the ecosystem of Tonle Sap Lake (TSL). The average biomasses of the phytoplankton... -
Impact of atmospheric dry deposition of nutrients on phytoplankton pigment composition and primary production in the coastal Bay of Bengal
Atmospheric deposition of pollutants decreases pH and increases the nutrient concentration in the surface water. To examine its impact on coastal...

Ecosystem Indicators of Water Quality Part I. Plankton Biomass, Primary Production and Nutrient Demand
Seasonal measurements of plankton (phytoplankton and bacteria) biomass and abundance, primary production, and nutrient demand were conducted in... -
Whole-Ecosystem Experiment Illustrates Short Timescale Hydrodynamic, Light, and Nutrient Control of Primary Production in a Terminal Slough
Estuaries are among the most productive of aquatic ecosystems. Yet the collective understanding of patterns and drivers of primary production in...

Describing and simulating phytoplankton of a small and shallow reservoir using decision trees and rule-based models
Phytoplankton represents one of the most important biological components of primary production, trophic interactions, and circulation of organic...
-
Tip** points of marine phytoplankton to multiple environmental stressors
Globally, anthropogenic climate change is threatening marine species. However, whether and how global marine phytoplankton, which represent the base...
-
Twenty-six years of phytoplankton pigments reveal a circumpolar Class Divide around the Southern Ocean
Regional taxonomic variation of phytoplankton communities in the Southern Ocean remains largely uncharacterised despite the distinct trophic and...
-
Water quality and habitat drive phytoplankton taxonomic and functional group patterns in the Yangtze River
BackgroundAlthough phytoplankton are important primary producers in food webs, they are relatively less studied in large rivers compared to other...

Negative effects of cigarette butt leachate on freshwater phytoplankton communities
We experimentally tested the effects of different concentrations of cigarette butt leachate on freshwater phytoplankton chlorophyll-a, species...
-
Temporal phytoplankton dynamics and environmental variables in four Ethiopian soda lakes
We investigated the spatio-temporal dynamics of phytoplankton composition, chlorophyll-a as a proxy for algal biomass, and abundance in relation to...

Study on the Community Dynamics and Diversity of Phytoplankton in Tiegang Reservoir (China)
Tiegang Reservoir is an important drinking water source in Shenzhen, and its water quality status and water ecological health affect the... -
Seasonal dynamics of phytoplankton in the northern part of Suez Gulf, Egypt
This study was conducted to evaluate the seasonal variability of phytoplankton in the northern part of the Gulf of Suez (Suez Bay), considering the...

Response of a Phytoplankton Community in a Subtropical Estuary to a Pulse Disturbance Driven by a Combo Hurricane and Extreme Rainfall Event
Major precipitation events from destructive hurricanes can change the hydrodynamics of estuaries. Indeed, water rather than wind was the major...
-
Widespread changes in Southern Ocean phytoplankton blooms linked to climate drivers
Climate change is expected to elicit widespread alterations to nutrient and light supply, which interact to influence phytoplankton growth and their...

Effects of bifenthrin on microcrustaceans grazing behavior on a phytoplankton assemblage dominated by Cyanobacteria
Insecticides are widely used for pest control and frequently reach aquatic systems, imposing a risk to the biota. In this work, the effect of...
-
Spatio-temporal dynamics of phytoplankton in a diversion reservoir and the major influencing factors: taxonomic versus functional groups classification
Identifying factors affecting phytoplankton dynamics is crucial to the management of aquatic ecosystems. A lot of scholars have conducted intensive...
