Atmospheric oxygen links reveal higher Southern Ocean productivity
What the study found The study found that Southern Ocean net primary production is about 6.5 ± 1.36 PgC yr−1, which is higher than most CMIP6 model and satellite-based estimates but consistent with Argo oxygen-based estimates. Why the authors say this matters The authors say these productivity estimates provide quantitative benchmarks and, together with airborne…
Warming changes phytoplankton macromolecular composition
Cellular model predicts how phytoplankton protein, carbohydrate, and lipid composition will shift under climate warming, with divergent regional responses that reshape marine food web nutrition.
Spatial changes in a Scotian Slope cold seep reveal complex seepage
Lipidomic and geochemical analysis of a North Atlantic cold seep reveals complex microbial zonation dominated by ANME archaea with sulfate-reducing microbes across a carbonate mound.
