• Seasonal environmental transitions and metabolic plasticity in a sea-ice alga from an individual cell perspective 

      Duncan, Rebecca J.; Søreide, Janne; Nielsen, Daniel A.; Varpe, Øystein; Wiktor, Józef; Tobin, Mark J.; Pitusi, Vanessa; Petrou, Katherina (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      Sea-ice microalgae are a key source of energy and nutrient supply to polar marine food webs, particularly during spring, prior to open-water phytoplankton blooms. The nutritional quality of microalgae as a food source ...
    • Spatio-temporal dynamics in microalgal communities in Arctic land-fast sea ice 

      Duncan, Rebecca J.; Søreide, Janne; Varpe, Øystein; Wiktor, Józef; Pitusi, Vanessa; Runge, Elaine; Petrou, Katherina (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      Sea ice microalgae are an important source of energy for the polar marine food web, representing the primary carbon source prior to pelagic phytoplankton blooms. Here we investigate community dynamics of sea ice microalgal ...
