Temperature-Correlated Changes in Phytoplankton Community Structure Are Restricted to Polar Waters

Globally distributed observations of size-fractionated chlorophyll a and temperature were used to incorporate temperature dependence into an existing semi-empirical model of phytoplankton community size structure. The additional temperature-dependent term significantly increased the model’s ability...
