  Authors:Helen E. K. Smith, Alex J. Poulton, Rebecca Garley, Jason Hopkins, Laura C. Lubelczyk, Dave T. Drapeau, et al.From:Biogeosciences (Vol. 14, Issue 21) Peer-Reviewed

  Nov. 7, 2017348 words Author abstract, Bri... The Great Calcite Belt (GCB) of the Southern Ocean is a region of elevated summertime upper ocean calcite concentration derived from coccolithophores, despite the region being known for its diatom predominance. The...

• A global compilation of coccolithophore calcification rates

  Authors:Chris J. Daniels, Alex J. Poulton, William M. Balch, Emilio Maranon, Tim Adey, Bruce C. Bowler, et al.From:Earth System Science Data (Vol. 10, Issue 4) Peer-Reviewed

  Oct. 16, 2018255 words Author abstract, Bri...

  The biological production of calcium carbonate (CaCO.sub.3 ), a process termed calcification, is a key term in the marine carbon cycle. A major planktonic group responsible for such pelagic CaCO.sub.3 production (CP)...

• Coccolithophore responses to environmental variability in the South China Sea: species composition and calcite content

  Authors:Xiaobo Jin, Chuanlian Liu, Alex J. Poulton, Minhan Dai, and Xianghui GuoFrom:Biogeosciences (Vol. 13, Issue 16) Peer-Reviewed

  Aug. 29, 2016282 words Brief article Coccolithophore contributions to the global marine carbon cycle are regulated by the calcite content of their scales (coccoliths) and the relative cellular levels of photosynthesis and calcification rates. All three of...

• A compilation of global bio-optical in situ data for ocean-colour satellite applications - version two

  Authors:Andr&#xE9 Valente, Shubha Sathyendranath, Vanda Brotas, Steve Groom, Michael Grant, Malcolm Taberner, et al.From:Earth System Science Data (Vol. 11, Issue 3) Peer-Reviewed

  July 15, 2019292 words Brief article

  A global compilation of in situ data is useful to evaluate the quality of ocean-colour satellite data records. Here we describe the data compiled for the validation of the ocean-colour products from the ESA Ocean...

• Southern Ocean deep-water carbon export enhanced by natural iron fertilization

  Authors:Raymond T. Pollard, Ian Salter, Richard J. Sanders, Mike I. Lucas, C. Mark Moore, Rachel A. Mills, et al.From:Nature (Vol. 457, Issue 7229) Peer-Reviewed

  Jan. 29, 20093,927 words Report 1600LThe addition of iron to high-nutrient, low-chlorophyll regions induces phytoplankton blooms that take up carbon (1-3). Carbon export from the surface layer and, in particular, the ability of the ocean and sediments to...
