often triggered by too much of a nutrient—such as nitrogen or phosphorus from fertilizer runoff—populations of some types of phytoplankton can grow rapidly, in what’s called a “bloom.” ...

Understanding phytoplankton dynamics is essential for predicting algal blooms, which can have detrimental ... We take care to ground generative text with facts, and have systems in place to ...

Harmful algal blooms, sometimes called HABs, occur when algae grow out of control. Algae are photosynthetic organisms that ...

Limnology and Oceanography, Vol. 57, No. 6 (2012), pp. 1673-1688 (16 pages) Three distinct phytoplankton blooms lasting 4–9 d were observed in approximately 15-m water depth near Huntington Beach, ...

At its core is phytoplankton—microscopic algae that ... of nutrients to the surface capable of triggering plankton blooms at the equator." To investigate these interactions, extensive ...

Plankton distribution in the water is anything but uniform. The fine-scale patchiness of phytoplankton blooms could hold critical insights into marine food chains. These patches might influence ...

At its core is phytoplankton - microscopic algae that ... of nutrients to the surface capable of triggering plankton blooms at the equator.” Measurements and Long-Term Data To investigate ...

suggesting P limitation of phytoplankton growth. During the summer and fall bloom periods, however, N additions alone revealed a significant positive effect on phytoplankton growth, and P additions ...

This feedback arises during phytoplankton blooms, where light is trapped closer to the surface, shallowing the mixed layer depth and impacting sea surface warming. This will build upon prior work, ...
