Fig. 3: Seasonal influence of fronts on phytoplankton communities.
From: Shift in phytoplankton community composition over fronts
Climatological seasonal cycles of (A, D, G) Prokaryotes, (C, F, I) Diatoms and (B, E, H) the other eukaryotes in the (A–C) subpolar, (D–F) seasonal subtropical and (G–I) permanent subtropical biomes, in the background (no front, red), over weak fronts (blue) and over strong fronts (green). The plain lines represent the climatological mean over the period 2002–2020 of the median of 8-day distributions. The envelopes mark the 10% and 90% percentile of the climatological spread over the period 2002–2020.
