A seventh cruise crossed the South Atlantic during the early winter of 2015. Sea surface temperature and salinity, oceanic and atmospheric partial pressure of CO<sub>2</sub> (<em>p</em>CO<sub>2</sub>), chlorophyll <em>a</em> and other phytoplankton pigment data were gathered. Net CO<sub>2</sub> fluxes were calculated for each cruise, characterizing the ability of each region to take up atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub>. We quantified phytoplankton chemotaxonomic groups using the HPLC/CHEMTAX approach. Thus, this study aimed to improve our understanding of the distribution of phytoplankton groups and their connection with the carbon biogeochemical cycle in the South Atlantic Ocean. Our results showed significant variations in both the zonal and meridional patterns of phytoplankton groups and the associated CO<sub>2</sub> uptake magnitudes. Diatoms and haptophytes dominated the coastal regions of Brazil and Africa, respectively, whereas the open ocean was dominated by haptophytes and the picoplanktonic cyanobacteria <em>Prochlorococcus</em> and <em>Synechococcus</em>. The CO<sub>2</sub> uptake capacity increased eastward from −7.1&nbsp;mmol CO<sub>2</sub> m<sup>−2</sup> d<sup>–1</sup> on the Brazilian coast to −27.6&nbsp;mmol CO<sub>2</sub> m<sup>−2</sup> d<sup>–1</sup> on the African coast. There was a significant negative relationship (<em>p</em>&nbsp;&lt;&nbsp;0.05) between the phytoplankton biomass and the difference in sea-air <em>p</em>CO<sub>2</sub> (Δ<em>p</em>CO<sub>2</sub>), with increasing CO<sub>2</sub> uptake corresponding to increases in the biomasses of diatoms and haptophytes. Therefore, according to our analysis, haptophytes and diatoms were the main phytoplankton groups related to a high uptake of CO<sub>2</sub> along the South Atlantic Ocean regions covered in this study. Thus, we encourage further investigations on their traits and vulnerabilities to future environmental change scenarios.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Phytoplankton strengthen CO<sub>2</sub> uptake in the South Atlantic Ocean","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-05-08 01:33:48.123855","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Carbon cycle; Phytoplankton pigments; Biological carbon pump; Carbon dioxide partial pressure; HPLC-CHEMTAX","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2021,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2021-01-07","DateCreate":"2021-01-07","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000604185400004","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1016/j.pocean.2020.102476"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":332351,"PubliDate":2021,"Pagination":"102476","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"190","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43700,"SerRR":"Progress in Oceanography.
