Global change and plankton ecology in the Southwestern Atlantic

In aquatic ecosystems, global change encompasses human-induced variations in the upper layer of the water column, where most of the carbon fixation takes place. These changes include increments of exposure to solar UV radiation, mean temperature of surface seawater, ocean acidification and variation...

These changes include increments of exposure to solar UV radiation, mean temperature of surface seawater, ocean acidification and variations in nutrient concentrations. These factors are well known to affect plankton ecosystems, although not all organisms are equally affected. In addition, many times these factors interact so that the final results are not always additive or synergistic as expected.
