The nutrient-scarce, warm, and high-salinity Kuroshio current has a profound impact on both the marine ecology of the northwestern Pacific Ocean and the global climate. This study aims to reveal the seasonal dynamics of picoplankton in the subtropica...
The diurnal cycle of light significantly impacts microbes, making diurnal investigations crucial for understanding microbial communities. Zhubi Reef is known to harbor exceptionally rich biodiversity, with both zooplankton and seawater properties dem...
Coastal marine ecosystems host complex microbial communities whose composition and metabolism are influenced by continental inputs and mesoscale properties of seawater masses. The identifying traits of the phytoplankton and bacteria such as biomass,...
The Arctic marine environment experiences dramatic seasonal changes in light and nutrient availability. To investigate the influence of seasonality on Arctic marine virus communities, five research cruises to the west and north of Svalbard were condu...
The abundances of 17 cytometric groups encompassing four groups of bacteria, three groups of cyanobacteria, six groups of eukaryotic picophytoplankton (<2–3 µm), and four groups of small eukaryotic nanophytoplankton (between 3 and 6 &m...
