Rising ocean temperatures will alter the productivity and composition of marine phytoplankton communities, thereby
affecting global biogeochemical cycles.
Such estimates are crucial to understanding how anthropogenic activity and global climate change may
affect global biogeochemical cycles.

Predicting the effects of future ocean warming on
biogeochemical cycles depends critically on understanding how existing
global temperature variation
affects phytoplankton.
Biomass burning is a major
global influence,
affecting biogeochemical cycles, atmospheric chemistry and the carbon
cycle.
Here we use a set of integrative approaches that combine metatranscriptomes, biochemical data, cellular physiology and emergent phytoplankton growth strategies in a
global ecosystems model, to show that temperature significantly
affects eukaryotic phytoplankton metabolism with consequences for
biogeochemical cycling under
global warming.
