The paper links iron availability to the size structure of three mesoplankton groups in the upper ocean, showing iron's role in shaping their biogeography and ecosystem services.

This study generates absolute estimates of plankton cell concentrations and carbon biomass using environmental genomic data, revealing ecological associations and quantitative biogeographies of photosynthetic lineages.

The paper quantifies plankton community structure globally, revealing inverted biomass pyramids dominated by gelatinous organisms and predicting future shifts in oceanic carbon cycles.
