The Relative Importance of Phytoplankton Light Absorption and Ecosystem Complexity in an Earth System Model

The Relative Importance of Phytoplankton Light Absorption and Ecosystem Complexity in an Earth System Model

Abstract We investigate the relative importance of ecosystem complexity and phytoplankton light absorption for climate studies. While the complexity of Earth System models (ESMs) with respect to marine biota has increased over the past years, the relative importance of biological processes in drivin...
