Planktonic eukaryotes in the Chesapeake Bay: contrasting responses of abundant and rare taxa to estuarine gradients

ABSTRACTPhytoplankton are important drivers of aquatic ecosystem function and environmental health. Their community compositions and distributions are directly impacted by environmental processes and human activities, including in the largest estuary in North America, the Chesapeake Bay. It is cruci...
