Scripps Oceanography's Maria Vernet describes her research in the polar regions. "As a phytoplankton ecologist, I try to understand which phytoplankton species live in the ocean, what do they do, how important they are, and who eats them. In this way, I can understand the factors that control their distribution and abundance, and how they contribute to the carbon that circulates through the food chain—and eventually ends up in animals that we are interested in, like fishes or marine mammals." #Phytoplankton #Ecology #MarineLife #Oceanography #Scientist
