Phytoplankton production in the Southern Ocean plays an important role in the biological carbon pump and sequestering carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into the oceans. It is predicted that continued anthropogenic carbon emissions will lead to further warming in the Southern Ocean, thereby affectin...

Phytoplankton production in the Southern Ocean plays an important role in the biological carbon pump and sequestering carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into the oceans.
