Study characterizes growth kinetics and functional traits of Galápagos phytoplankton isolates, revealing taxon-specific deviations from allometric scaling predictions.

Statistical framework combining finite mixtures, EM and hierarchical Bayesian inference reveals a distinct phytoplankton community comprising ~70% of observations within a Mediterranean oceanic front.

Seven-decade reanalysis reveals sharp increases and spatial shifts in Arctic bioclimatic extremes—droughts, winter warming and rain-on-snow—signaling novel stressors for cold ecosystems.
