«This can help us determine mechanisms that influence species composition in
planktonic communities exposed to red tides, and suggests that these chemical cues could alter large - scale ecosystem phenomena, such as the funneling of material and energy through marine food webs.»

Linking the composition and activity of natural microbial
communities to the physical composition, biogeochemical processes, and food web structure of
planktonic and benthic ecosystems.
We now realize that bacteria are hardly ever found individually (in what is referred to as a
planktonic state), but instead frequently join
communities.
Changes to
planktonic and benthic
community composition and productivity have been observed in the North Sea since 1955 (Clark and Frid, 2001) and since the mid-1980s may have reduced the survival of young cod (Beaugrand et al., 2003).
