High temperature decreases the PIC / POC ratio and increases phosphorus requirements in <i>Coccolithus pelagicus</i> (Haptophyta)
Rising ocean temperatures will likely increase stratification of the water column and reduce nutrient input into the photic zone. This will increase the likelihood of nutrient limitation in marine microalgae, leading to changes in the abundance and composition of phytoplankton communities, which in...
