<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk177140316"><span style="font-size:10.5pt">Oceanic microbial ecosystems mediate the global cycling of carbon and other elements, shaping Earth, the biosphere and global climate. In this talk I will show how
metabolism offers a powerful lens for reconstructing microbial macroevolution and revealing forces that drive self-organization at ecosystem scales. I will primarily focus on highly abundant marine picocyanobacteria and co-occurring heterotrophs that have
been co-evolving over the past ~500 million years, a period during which the Earth system as a whole underwent dramatic global change.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
