Fig. 6 — The food web during “normal conditions” (pre-Blob), here defined as periods with no MHW—on the left side; and changes associated with heatwave conditions—right side. The circles, or nodes, represent organic C or biomass pools. On the left side, nodes are scaled according to literature values for the different pools, see model description in Supplementary Material. For several nodes, size distribution (or niche in the case of prokaryotes) is displayed using colored pie charts, where S indicates “small”, L indicates “large”, A indicates “particle-associated”, F indicates “free-living”, Su indicates “suspended”, and Si indicates “sinking”. Shifts in pool sizes or composition are visualized using color proportions. Differences in pool sizes and C flow under normal and MHW conditions are indicated as a change in node size or line color in the right side of the model.
