Patchiness of marine plankton and its influence on the ocean carbon cycle

University of East Anglia School of Environmental Sciences
Marine ecosystems play a key role in regulating the Earth's climate. Marine ecosystems live largely at the ocean’s surface. Their activities generate a flux of carbon between the ocean surface and the deep ocean, so-called export flux, that modulates atmospheric CO2 in the long-term. Read more

Impact of environmental change on the dynamics of freshwater zooplankton and their parasites

UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology - Wallingford UK CEH
Zooplankton are arguably the most important trophic group in lake ecosystems. Their grazing controls algal populations, including harmful or nuisance blooms and they themselves provide food for higher trophic levels such as larger invertebrates and fish. Read more
