One of the big questions to emerge from the study, Cassar adds, is just how much carbon these phytoplankton may have ultimately removed from the atmosphere as they bloomed.
Aerosols from the fires also traveled eastward through the lower atmosphere, ultimately reaching the Southern Ocean where they triggered blooms of phytoplankton in its iron-starved waters.
Researchers can then use a mathematical model to estimate the corresponding amount of phytoplankton there is.
They collected phytoplankton in the sea for the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in California.
