Zooplankton and the Ocean Carbon Cycle. (2017, background): “…phytoplankton production and the combined grazing losses to micro- and mesozooplankton, as well as the direct consumption of virtually all production of the smallest phytoplankton (Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, and picoeukaryotes) by microzooplankton (Landry 2009; Landry et al. 2011a, 2016).”
Diel vertical migration: Ecological controls and impacts on the biological pump in a one‐dimensional ocean model (2013, unknown): “NPP is less than that observed at the equator, but similar to the productivity of the surrounding region [e.g., Landry et al., 2011].”
Co-limitation of diatoms by iron and silicic acid in the equatorial Pacific (2011, background): “Indeed, the close agreement found between community-level estimates of phytoplankton growth and grazing processes on our two cruises (Landry et al., 2011; Selph et al., 2011) suggests that small diatoms, an important but small component of the total community in situ (Taylor et al.”
