Phytoplankton (Biodiversity)

The plant plankton and primary producers in aquatic ecosystems

Phytoplankton (Climate)

That portion of the plankton community comprised of tiny plants (e.g., algae and diatoms).

Phytoplankton (El Nino)

Tiny plant species that float freely in the water.

Phytoplankton (Environment)

That portion of the plankton community comprised of tiny plants; e.g. algae, diatoms.

Phytoplankton (Evolution)

Microscopic aquatic organisms that, like plants, use photosynthesis to capture and harness solar energy.

Phytoplankton (Fish)

Microscopic floating plants, mainly algae, that live suspended in bodies of water and that drift about because they cannot move by themselves or because they are too small or too weak to swim effectively against a current.

Phytoplankton (Fossils)

Microscopic aquatic organisms that, like plants, use photosynthesis to capture and harness solar energy.

Phytoplankton (Oceanography)

Microscopic plants that drift in surface water in ponds, lakes and the ocean. Marine phytoplankton are sometimes called 'the grass of the sea' because they are fed upon ('grazed') by animals in the water.

Phytoplankton (Physical Geography)

Small photosynthetic organisms, mostly algae and bacteria, found inhabiting aquatic ecosystems. Also see plankton and zooplankton.

Phytoplankton (Sanitation)

Plankton consisting of plants, such as algae.

Phytoplankton (Science)

Microscopic marine plants.
