Coccolithophore fluxes in the open tropical North Atlantic: influence of thermocline depth, Amazon water, and Saharan dust

Abstract. Coccolithophores are calcifying phytoplankton and major contributors to both the organic and inorganic oceanic carbon pumps. Their export fluxes, species composition, and seasonal patterns…

Distribution of extant coccolithophores from the northwest continental shelf of India during the summer monsoon

ABSTRACT Coccolithophores contribute substantially to marine primary production as well as to particulate inorganic carbon (PIC) flux to the deep sea; however, there is no literature available so far…

The influence of environmental variability on the biogeography of coccolithophores and diatoms in the Great Calcite Belt

Abstract. The Great Calcite Belt (GCB) of the Southern Ocean is a region of elevated summertime upper ocean calcite concentration derived from coccolithophores, despite the region being known for its…

Coccolithophore fluxes in the open tropical North Atlantic

Coccolithophores are calcifying phytoplankton and major contributors to both the organic and inorganic oceanic 15 carbon pumps. Their export fluxes, species composition and seasonal patterns were…

Coccolithophore responses to the Pacific Decadal Oscillation in the East China Sea region of the Northwest Pacific from ad 1901 to 2013

A high‐resolution study of coccolithophores in a sediment core from the East China Sea (ECS) region of the Northwest Pacific revealed that fluctuations in coccolithophore assemblages responded well…
