A new NASA study reveals significant global declines in microscopic ocean plant-life, or phytoplankton, which form the base of the marine food chain. This research is the first to analyze

A new NASA study reveals significant global declines in microscopic ocean plant-life, or phytoplankton, which form the base of the marine food chain. This research is the first to analyze long-term phytoplankton community trends using NASA satellite data.

Diatoms, the largest type of phytoplankton, decreased over 1% annually from 1998 to 2012, particularly in the North Pacific, North Indian, and Equatorial Indian oceans. This reduction could impact the amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide absorbed and stored in the deep ocean. Dr. Cecile Rousseaux is featured.
