Open AccessPersistent equatorial Pacific iron limitation under ENSO forcing
Projected responses of ocean net primary productivity to climate change are highly uncertain1. Models suggest that the climate sensitivity of phytoplankton nutrient limitation in the low-latitude Pacific Ocean pl...

Open AccessGlobal analysis of ocean phytoplankton nutrient limitation reveals high prevalence of co-limitation
Nutrient availability limits phytoplankton growth throughout much of the global ocean. Here we synthesize available experimental data to identify three dominant nutrient limitation regimes: nitrogen is limitin...

Open AccessImplications of increasing Atlantic influence for Arctic microbial community structure
Increasing influence of Atlantic water in the Arctic Ocean has the potential to significantly impact regional water temperature and salinity. Here we use a rDNA barcoding approach to reveal how microbial commu...

Open AccessIron Biogeochemistry in the High Latitude North Atlantic Ocean
Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for marine microbial organisms, and low supply controls productivity in large parts of the world’s ocean. The high latitude North Atlantic is seasonally Fe limited, but ...
