The influence of global change on Southern Ocean productivity will have major ramifications for future management polar life. A prior laboratory study investigated the response a batch-cultured subantarctic diatom to projected simulating conditions 2100 (increased temperature/CO2/irradiance/iron; decreased macronutrients), showed twofold higher chlorophyll-derived growth rate driven mainly by t...

Abstract Building on a summary of how turbulence influences biological systems, we reviewed key phytoplankton-turbulence laboratory experiments (after Peters and Redondo in Scientia Marina: Lectures plankton turbulence, International Centre for Coastal Resources, Barcelona, 1997) Marrasé (Marine Ecology Progress Series 205:291–306, 2000) to provide current overview artificial generation methods...
