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.” ...

It's spring, the sun is shining and something is about to happen with the plankton in the cold waters of the Arctic Ocean.

Phytoplankton blooms can sometimes be seen from space, as in this image from the Gulf of Aden, shown here in an image taken by the MODIS instrument on NASA's Aqua satellite.
