Open AccessVertical migration by bulk phytoplankton sustains biodiversity and nutrient input to the surface ocean
Phytoplankton subsumes the great variety of unicellular photoautotrophs that perform roughly half of Earth’s primary production. They achieve this despite their challenging oceanic habitat, with opposing verti...

Open AccessMicro-scale patchiness enhances trophic transfer efficiency and potential plankton biodiversity
Rather than spatial means of biomass, observed overlap in the intermittent spatial distributions of aquatic predators and prey is known to be more important for determining the flow of nutrients and energy up ...

Open AccessPhytoplankton size-diversity mediates an emergent trade-off in ecosystem functioning for rare versus frequent disturbances
Biodiversity is known to be an important determinant of ecosystem-level functions and processes. Although theories have been proposed to explain the generally positive relationship between, for example, biodiv...
