Chasing iron bioavailability in the Southern Ocean: Insights from Phaeocystis antarctica and iron speciation ...
Dissolved iron (dFe) availability limits the uptake of atmospheric CO2 by the Southern Ocean (SO) biological pump. Hence, any change in bioavailable dFe in this region can directly influence climate. On the basis of Fe uptake experiments with Phaeocystis antarctica, we show that the range of dFe bio...
