Steeper size spectra with decreasing phytoplankton biomass indicate strong trophic amplification and future fish declines
Abstract Under climate change, model ensembles suggest that declines in phytoplankton biomass amplify into greater reductions at higher trophic levels, with serious implications for fisheries and carbon storage. However, the extent and mechanisms of this trophic amplification vary greatly among mode...
