Paul Falkowski's research papers

Paul Falkowski's research explores how life and the Earth's environment interact, particularly focusing on how microorganisms like algae influence global processes such as climate regulation and nutrient cycles. He examines how these tiny organisms convert sunlight into energy and affect carbon dioxide levels, playing a key role in controlling Earth's climate. His work helps us understand the biological contributions to planetary health, the evolution of energy systems, and how changes in the environment impact life on Earth. Overall, his research bridges biology and Earth sciences to better grasp the planet's ecological and atmospheric dynamics.
