Simons Collaboration on Computational Biogeochemical Modeling of Marine Ecosystems
The Irwin Group uses statistical modeling techniques to understand niches, traits, and interactions within marine microbial communities. A new paper confirms the value of trait-based approaches in investigating the mechanisms underlying phytoplankton biomass dynamics, and in predicting the community response to environmental changes. Continue reading “Turning to Traits to Understand Phytoplankton Biomass Patterns”
The PML-CBIOMES team led by Shubha Sathyendranath is actively engaged in developing new and improved products to extract increased detail from satellite color data. In a recent paper, they turn their attention to primary production in the Arctic. Continue reading “Longer Season with Phytoplankton Growth in a Warming Arctic?”
