New research highlights the benefits of combining existing long-term plankton monitoring programs and emerging technologies in monitoring the health of our seas.

A supplement contextualizes key advances in light microscopy over 400 years ... three year quest to examine how global warming affects plankton and thus, ultimately, global oxygen production.

Image caption, This is one type of plankton viewed through a microscope. In fact, many scientists believe that these tiny plants and animals are amongst the most important in our seas. They may ...

Using electron microscopy and infrared spectrometry, researchers have discovered by, contrary to long-standing textbook knowledge, plankton shells do not form as calcite, but instead, are originally ...

“Marine biologists today note, almost everywhere, a decline in plankton biodiversity,” Mollo says in another interview. “When ...

With this cryogenic microscopy instrument -- the only one ... at the cellular scale, of how plants protect themselves against excess of sodium," says Priya Ramakrishna, a postdoctoral researcher ...

With my work, I hope to give people a glimpse in an unseen universe, just around the corner. Jan van IJken using a high-powered microscope to film living plankton.

With this cryogenic microscopy instrument—the only one of ... at the cellular scale, of how plants protect themselves against excess of sodium," says Priya Ramakrishna, a postdoctoral researcher ...

We need to conduct parallel studies which apply novel methods alongside standard plankton monitoring to calibrate, align and verify novel data types against standard microscopy methods to ensure ...
