• Modelling spatial and temporal patterns in size-structured marine plankton communities: top -down and bottom -up controls (2014, methodology): “(Verdy et al., 2009) to parameterize the idealized food-chain model (Table II) in terms of the parameters of the full global food-web model (Tables I and III).”
• Interconnection of nitrogen fixers and iron in the Pacific Ocean: Theory and numerical simulations (2012, background): “The cellular iron-to-nitrogen ratio is given by Rj and is assumed here to be fixed, though we note that the model could be recast in a variable quota system [cf. Tilman, 1977; Verdy et al., 2009].”
• Dimensions of marine phytoplankton diversity (2019, background): “This unimodal distribution has been observed (e.g. Raven, 1994; Bec et al., 2008; Finkel et al., 2010; Marañón et al., 2013; Sommer et al., 2017) and explained as a trade-off between replenishing cell quotas versus synthesizing new biomass (Verdy et al., 2009; Ward et al., 2017).”
• Relationships between phytoplankton growth and cell size in surface oceans: Interactive effects of temperature, nutrients, and grazing (2010, background): “Using precise mathematical models, Verdy et al. (2009) have demonstrated that the mass-specific growth rates of large cells can be higher than those of small ones if storage capacity increases with cell size and phytoplankton growth is limited by internal nutrient assimilation.”
• Developing integrated models of Southern Ocean food webs: Including ecological complexity, accounting for uncertainty and the importance of scale (2012, unknown): “been developed (Follows et al., 2007; Dutkiewicz et al., 2009; Verdy et al., 2009; Barton et al., 2010) and these potentially pro-”
