What would happen if their was an increase in the krill population?

An increase in the krill population could have significant ecological impacts, particularly in marine ecosystems where they serve as a crucial food source for various species, including whales, seals, and penguins. A surge in krill numbers may support higher populations of these predators, potentially leading to shifts in the food web dynamics. However, if the krill population grows excessively, it could also lead to overgrazing of phytoplankton, disrupting the balance of oceanic primary production and affecting overall marine health.

Why is the macaroni penguin population declining?

Macoroni penguins feed on Krill and Krill feed on plankton that grow under the sea ice shelves and due to climate change there is less ice on the Antarctic Ocean. This reduction in sea ice leads to reduction in Krill Population, and the numbers to reach adult stage has decreased significantly because without sea ice the larvae starve (Atkinson et al, (2004). So less Krill means a decline in macaroni penguins.
