Phytoplankton by ManningDaly
Phytoplankton draws attention to the microscopic world of marine phytoplankton and their importance as bio-indicators of climate change
Made with marine grade stainless steel and coloured acrylic, this new work brings to our attention the microscopic creatures of our coastal sea waters.
Phytoplankton produce over half of the oxygen we breathe, with hundreds and thousands of these microscopic organisms in every tablespoon of ocean water.
Ever-present in the water we swim in and the beaches we walk upon, phytoplankton provide over half of the oxygen we breathe, supplying over 50% of the total global carbon cycling and primary resource productivity.
