Those three papers explore the global ocean microbiome and plankton interaction networks, as well as how plankton communities change across a key ocean circulation choke point off South Africa.
The articles on the SAHFOS site (http://192.171.163.165/) bring up the same concerns, namely that anthropogenic climate change could affect plankton and these changes in the plankton communities could cascade through the entire ocean ecosystem, and show that these changes in the plankton communities have already started.
Scientists of GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel used so - called «indoor mesocosms» to mimic the future ocean in their laboratories: They transferred the natural plankton community from the Kiel Fjord into twelve 1400 - liter tanks and brought them to two different temperatures and two different carbon dioxide concentratOcean Research Kiel used so - called «indoor mesocosms» to mimic the future ocean in their laboratories: They transferred the natural plankton community from the Kiel Fjord into twelve 1400 - liter tanks and brought them to two different temperatures and two different carbon dioxide concentratocean in their laboratories: They transferred the natural plankton community from the Kiel Fjord into twelve 1400 - liter tanks and brought them to two different temperatures and two different carbon dioxide concentrations.
«While many branching corals dominate under normal pH conditions offering ample hiding space for the different species of zooplankton, ocean acidification shifts the community to large, massive bouldering corals, which offer the reef - associated plankton little opportunity for hiding».
But we wanted to observe the natural development of the plankton ecosystem from the first productivity in late winter until summer, closely monitor the succession of the plankton communities and follow how effects of ocean acidification are transmitted from one generation to the next,» Riebesell explains.
In this BIOACID Science Portrait, Ulf Riebesell tells you how the KOSMOS mesocosms, «giant test tubes», help researchers to find out more about the reactions of plankton communities to ocean acidification — and what these field experiments mean to him.
Thirty - five scientists from twelve countries deployed these «giant test tubes» in the Kongsfjord off Ny - Ålesund to investigate how ocean acidification affects the plankton community in the Arctic.
In situ mesocosm experiments on the effect of ocean acidification (OA) are an important tool for investigating potential OA - induced changes in natural plankton communities.
In this study we combined results from various in - situ mesocosm studies in two different ocean regions (Arctic and temperate waters) to reveal general patterns of plankton community shifts in response to OA and how these changes are modulated by inorganic nutrient availability.

...... Planktos will sprinkle iron dust around a 100 kilometer by 100 kilometer zone of open ocean and Coleman predicts the plankton community will mature within six months.
