URI researchers say that in the last 50 years, levels of phytoplankton – tiny plants that are the foundation of the marine food chain – are down by 50% in Narragansett Bay. Through photosynthesis, ...
Few studies have investigated coastal marine plankton and aggregate abundance and diversity with high frequency over a long time period. Here, a group of researchers deployed a cabled marine Oshima ...
