    Pelagic consequences from mismatch between phytoplankton and grazers during Arctic spring blooms

    Arctic marine ecosystems are characterized by intense pulses of primary production during spring phytoplankton blooms. These blooms provide a large proportion of the total annual energy available to the food web for the entire year. Thus, the coincidence of the bloom with the appearance of grazing zooplankton is important for fuelling the pelagic food-web, a food web that eventually nourishes comm
