Carbon export buffering and CO2 drawdown by flexible phytoplankton C:N:P under glacial conditions

Abstract:

Modern observations indicate that variations in marine phytoplankton stoichiometry correlate with the boundaries of major surface waters. For example, phytoplankton in the oligotrophic subtropical gyres typically have much higher C:N:P ratios (i.e., higher C:P and higher N:P ratios) than those in eutrophic upwelling regions and polar regions. Such a spatial pattern points to nutrient availability as a key environmental driver of stochiometric flexibility. Environmental dependence of phytoplan...
