I expected as much. Neither of your cited news articles post a shred of evidence for what is happening to phytoplankton in the real world. The first talks of a study they are doing in test tubes which is not the real world. I guess they have no significant data since 2011 when they posted that article. The second refers to older studies but gives no proof. It is simply an opinion piece. The fact that some Indians in Canada threw some iron into some waters and caused a bloom of phytoplankton puts this temperature data into question. "But this week, with wave after wave of pink salmon arriving, the fishery was opened and processing plants were quickly overwhelmed by the huge numbers of salmon coming in. The massive return of one species – pinks – coming on the heels of a disastrous run of another – sockeye – may be linked to a dramatic shift in ocean conditions last year. And it has raised questions about the possible role of a controversial experiment that took place when the Haida Salmon Restoration Corp. dumped iron material in the ocean last summer, stimulating plankton growth just as the pink salmon were moving through the area.
