Phago-mixotrophy of small eukaryotic phytoplankton might alleviate iron limitation in HNLC Southern Ocean

D. R. Y. Ong, A. Gutierrez-Rodriguez, K. A. Safi, D. Marie, K. E. Selph, M. R. Stukel, M. Decima, A. Lopes dos Santos

The paper measures carbon fixation rates and taxonomic composition of small phytoplankton in different oceanic regions, suggesting phago-mixotrophy may help alleviate iron limitation in certain populations.

Prey size spectra and predator to prey size ratios of southern ocean salps

C. K. Fender, M. Decima, A. Gutierrez-Rodriguez, K. E. Selph, N. Yingling, M. R. Stukel

This study examines the prey size spectra and predator-to-prey size ratios of southern ocean salps, finding that picoplankton contribute minimally to their diet compared to nanoplankton.

Quantifying biological carbon pump pathways with a data-constrained mechanistic model ensemble approach

M. R. Stukel, M. Decima, M. R. Landry

This paper develops a data-constrained mechanistic model to quantify biological carbon pump pathways, finding that sinking particles and vertical mixing are more significant than active zooplankton transport.
