This project examines how ocean acidification affects iron uptake in marine phytoplankton, which are crucial for marine ecosystems and climate regulation. By studying various phytoplankton strains, the research aims to understand the implications of acidification on their growth and biogeochemical cycles.
The ability of phytoplankton to access the micronutrient iron fuels vast marine ecosystems, drives biogeochemical cycles and influences climate on a planetary scale.
Recent studies in the model diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum have revealed that high-affinity iron uptake uses a carbonate-dependent phytotransferrin which is highly sensitive to ocean acidification.
This project seeks to validate and extend the hypothesis that ocean acidification negatively affects the growth of marine phytoplank…
