Effects of ultraviolet-B radiation on marine phytoplankton

Creator:

Behrenfeld, Michael Joseph

Abstract:

Global increases in ultraviolet-B radiation (UVBR:290- 320 nm) resulting from decreases in stratospheric ozone concentration have the potential to alter marine primary production and affect global climate and marine trophic dynamics. Effects of UVBR on phytoplankton carbon fixation were determined from open ocean exposure studies conducted off the coast of...

Calanoid copepod diet in an upwelling system : phagotrophic protists vs. phytoplankton

Creator:

Fessenden, Lynne M.

Abstract:

Calanoid copepod diet was investigated in Oregon coastal waters to determine the trophic significance of phagotrophic protists as copepod prey within an ecosystem where the microplankton biomass is typically dominated by large diatoms. Prior to and during the 1991 upwelling season, clearance rates on phytoplankton and phagotrophic ciliates were measured...
