Case Study Understanding climate change impacts on the marine plankton food web takes massive but portable computing power The Challenge Marine plankton form the base of most ocean food webs. Understanding how these communities are likely to change in the future in response to climate change is a critical knowledge need. Yet how specific environmental drivers impact different levels of the food web, and how this might transfer up and down different food webs remains poorly understood. The In Situ Ichthyoplankton Imaging System (ISIIS) was developed by an interdisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and software developers to capture real-time images of marine zooplankton. Plankton are (mostly) tiny organisms that drift through the ocean. As ISIIS is being Synopsis towed behind a ship, two state-of- the-art cameras image the water The health of plankton is essential for the the device travels through. Using well-being of all creatures on Earth. Smaller phytoplankton (plant plankton) produce vast a technique called shadowgraph imaging, light is
