The release of total and dissolved organic carbon from macroalgae and phytoplankton

Creator:

Kawasaki, Nobuyuki

Abstract:

Many phytoplankton and macroalgae release dissolved organic carbon (DOC). Many macroalgae also produce and store secondary metabolites which in some case have been shown to deter their grazers. The metabolites may be released into the surrounding seawater and could inhibit primary production. On the other hand, some phytoplankton can use...

Algal community structure and organization in high intertidal rockpools

Creator:

van Tamelen, Peter G.

Abstract:

Gradients of physical disturbance are central to theories of community organization yet rarely are studies performed in which physical factors are experimentally manipulated. Pothole tidepool algal communities exhibit distinct zonation patterns from top to bottom that result from scouring by rocks and other debris in the pools. Scouring is easily...
