An assessment of the ecosystem services of marine zooplankton and the key threats to their provision

Seasonal Patterns in Phytoplankton and Zooplankton across the North of Gulf of Oman: A Numerical Study

“…

Climate change, a global phenomenon, has been at the forefront of scientific discourse due to its profound implications on both marine and freshwater environments [1][2][3]. These implications are not just limited to rising temperatures or altered precipitation patterns; they extend to the very fabric of aquatic ecosystems, influencing the dynamics of the marine food web and the organisms that constitute it.Zooplankton, microscopic organisms that drift with ocean currents, play a pivotal role in marine ecosystems [1][2][3]. Serving as a crucial link in the pelagic food web, they connect primary producers, primarily phytoplankton, to higher trophic levels, such as fish.
