Seasonal mixed layer depth shapes phytoplankton physiology, viral production, and accumulation in the North Atlantic

Phytoplankton are important primary producers. Here the authors investigate phytoplankton physiological changes associated with bloom phases and mixing regimes in the North Atlantic, finding that stratification and deep mixing shape accumulation rates by altering physiology and viral production.
