How an Unusual 'Bloom' Positively Affected Marine...

NOC Into the Blue Podcast ·

2025/02/26

Phytoplankton, or marine algae, form the basis of the marine food chain and help to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere by using it to grow then being eaten or dying and falling as organic matter to the seafloor. Professor Meric Srokosz joins the podcast to take a look at a particular phytoplankton 'bloom' off the coast of Madagascar that occurred in late 2019 to early 2020 and how it potentially benefitted marine life and atmospheric carbon removal.Find out more about the study here -
