- Drivers of Marine Phytoplankton Diversity and Connectivity in the Galápagos Archipelago Spanning an ENSO Cycle. Lim, Prisca Seim, Harvey Torano, Oliva Neave, Erika Jang, Se Hyeon Johnson, Zackary Haines, Sara Gifford, Scott Cohen, Natalie Moreno, Carly M Lankford, Margarita Palacios, Cristina Vintimilla Marchetti, Adrian Phytoplankton Ecuador Biodiversity Seawater El Nino-Southern Oscillation RNA, Ribosomal, 18S Ecosystem The Galápagos Islands are a biodiversity hotspot, largely due to the Equatorial Undercurrent (EUC) which supplies nutrient-rich waters to the euphotic zone and supports enhanced levels of primary productivity performed by phytoplankton. Understanding phytoplankton responses to changing environmental conditions is crucial for regional conservation and management efforts. Research cruises conducted between 2014 and 2022, spanning a major El Niño event in 2015 and a La Niña event in 2022, observed varying oceanic conditions and diverse phytoplankton community composition. At most EUC-influenced stations, larger-sized phytoplankton groups (≥ 5 μm) were dominant while warmer, oligotrophic sites favoured smaller-sized phytoplankton groups (
