Extended Data Fig. 7: N:P variability among phytoplankton in modeled population and species observations.
From: Global patterns in marine organic matter stoichiometry driven by phytoplankton ecophysiology
Model output of total model phytoplankton biomass (Gmol C) is binned according to its local N:P (mol mol−1). Distinct curves of biomass versus elemental ratios are separately plotted for small (blue) and large (red) size classes, and compared against the median values of traits observed for small (prokaryote, blue) and large (eukaryote, red).
