Physiological flexibility of phytoplankton impacts modelled chlorophyll and primary production across the North Pacific Ocean

<p>Phytoplankton growth, and hence biomass, responds to variations in light and nutrient availability in the near-surface ocean. A wide variety of models have been developed to capture variable chlorophyll : carbon ratios due to photoacclimation, i.e. the dynamic physiological response of phyt...
