- Regional scale characteristics of the seasonal cycle of chlorophyll in the Southern Ocean (2011, background): “These include both bottom-up controls of the physiological response of phytoplankton assemblages to physical and biogeochemical forcing (e.g. Martin et al., 1990; De Baar et al., 1995; Boyd, 2002) as well as top-down controls of grazing (e.g. Smetacek et al., 2004; Behrenfeld, 2010).”
- Iron‐light interactions differ in Southern Ocean phytoplankton (2012, background): “…and thereby enhancing the efficiency of light absorption, the maintenance of a large frustule size (but low cytoplasm to cell volume ratio) potentially increases the capacity for luxury storage of nutrients such as iron in vacuoles while reducing mortality through grazing (Smetacek et al. 2004).”
- Protozoans as a food source for Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba: Complementary insights from stomach content, fatty acids, and stable isotopes (2006, background): “Possibly, iron-replete conditions at South Georgia favored weakly silicified diatoms (Smetacek et al. 2004), which are hard to distinguish in the stomach.”
- Feeding and overwintering of Antarctic krill across its major habitats: The role of sea ice cover, water depth, and phytoplankton abundance (2014, background): “Together, their intensive grazing and excretion can affect local nutrient cycles and phytoplankton dynamics (Smetacek et al. 2004; Schmidt et al. 2011); therefore, krill are considered ‘‘engineers’’ of ecosystem structure and function.”
- Thoughts on the evolution and ecological niche of diatoms (2021, background): “Ecological Monographs Vol. 0, No. 0 C O N C E P TS & S YN TH E S IS increases effective size and thus influences size-selective predation (Smetacek et al. 2004, Bergkvist et al. 2012), encounter volumes (Karp-Boss and Jumars 1998), and the frequency of collisions between chains, with consequences…”
