Abstract | In aquatic ecosystems, phytoplankton is an important component of biodiversity. Although much is already known about the main climate change agents impacting phytoplankton, it is necessary to systematize this knowledge in order to identify the main trends, gaps, and perspectives for future research in this field. Thus, we conducted a systematic review of the global scientific literature on phytoplankton and climate change. We found 660 articles published between 1991 and 2020 using the Web of Science platform. The studies were mostly conducted in marine and freshwater environments using an observational approach. The main variables studied were temperature and nutrient concentrations. The main phytoplankton response variables are linked to metrics of species composition/diversity or physiological/biochemical traits of organisms. We found that over the last 30 years, a large number of climatic predictors and phytoplankton response variables have been studied. However, the number of studies evaluating interactions of multiple variables (climate and phytoplankton response) is small in comparison to the total amount of research. Thus, the combination of methodological approaches, as well as the simultaneous study of multiple climate predictors and response variables, can help in the production of new information to understanding of the effects of climate change on phytoplankton. |
