Advancing interpretations of ¹⁴C-uptake measurements in the context of phytoplankton physiology and ecology

Creator:: Milligan, Allen J., Halsey, Kimberly H., and Behrenfeld, Michael J.
Abstract:: The ¹⁴C-uptake method is the most common approach employed for estimating primary production in the ocean. Normalizing ¹⁴C-uptake to chlorophyll a and time yields a value termed the assimilation number, which is thought to reflect phytoplankton physiology. It is often assumed that the measured rate of ¹⁴C-uptake is between net...

Fluorescence and nonphotochemical quenching responses to simulated vertical mixing in the marine diatom Thalassiosira weissflogii

Creator:: Milligan, Allen J., Aparicio, Uriel A., and Behrenfeld, Michael J.
Abstract:: The fluorescence signal emitted from phytoplankton exposed to natural sunlight has been considered a potentially useful tool to examine phytoplankton physiology from in situ radiometers and satellites, but variability in the fluorescence signal is confounded by non-photochemical quenching (NPQ). This pathway dissipates excitation energy as heat rather than fluorescence. It...

Effects of overstory and understory competition and simulated herbivory on growth and survival of white pine seedlings

Creator:: Saunders, Mike R. and Puettmann, Klaus J.
Abstract:: The interactive impact of overstory canopy closure, understory brush control, and simulated white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus Zimmermann) herbivory (i.e., clipping) on growth and survival of underplanted white pine (Pinus strobus L.) seedlings was examined. Clipping was conducted in April 1996 and 1997 at three intensities (control, 0% previous year’s growth...

Regional variations in the influence of mesoscale eddies on near-surface chlorophyll

Creator:: Gaube, Peter, McGillicuddy, Dennis J., Jr., Chelton, Dudley B., Behrenfeld, Michael J., and Strutton, Peter G.
Abstract:: Eddies can influence biogeochemical cycles through a variety of mechanisms, including the excitation of vertical velocities and the horizontal advection of nutrients and ecosystems, both around the eddy periphery by rotational currents and by the trapping of fluid and subsequent transport by the eddy. In this study, we present an...

Geostationary satellite observations of dynamic phytoplankton photophysiology

Creator:: O'Malley, Robert T., Behrenfeld, Michael J., Westberry, Toby K., Milligan, Allen J., Shang, Shaoling, and Yan, Jing
Abstract:: Since June 2010, the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) has been collecting the first diurnally resolved satellite ocean measurements. Here GOCI retrievals of phytoplankton chlorophyll concentration and fluorescence are used to evaluate daily to seasonal changes in photophysiological properties. We focus on nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) processes that protect phytoplankton from...

Global net community production and the putative net heterotrophy of the oligotrophic oceans

Creator:: Westberry, Toby K., Williams, Peter J. le B., and Behrenfeld, Michael J.
Abstract:: Reconciling rates of organic carbon export from the euphotic zone with the consumption of organic material in the dark ocean remains one of the major quantitative uncertainties of the ocean carbon cycle. Euphotic zone net community production (NCP) provides one broad constraint on export flux and potential carbon drawdown. However,...

Satellite observations of chlorophyll, phytoplankton biomass, and Ekman pumping in nonlinear mesoscale eddies

Creator:: Gaube, P., Chelton, D. B., Strutton, P. G., and Behrenfeld, Michael J.
Abstract:: Nonlinear mesoscale eddies can influence biogeochemical cycles in the upper ocean through vertical and horizontal advection of nutrients and marine organisms. The relative importance of these two processes depends on the polarity of an eddy (cyclones versus anticyclones) and the initial biological conditions of the fluid trapped in the core...

Annual cycles of ecological disturbance and recovery underlying the subarctic Atlantic spring plankton bloom

Creator:: Behrenfeld, Michael J., Doney, Scott C., Lima, Ivan, Boss, Emmanuel S., and Siegel, David A.
Abstract:: Satellite measurements allow global assessments of phytoplankton concentrations and, from observed temporal changes in biomass, direct access to net biomass accumulation rates (r). For the subarctic Atlantic basin, analysis of annual cycles in r reveals that initiation of the annual blooming phase does not occur in spring after stratification surpasses...

Is there a common response to ultraviolet-B radiation by marine phytoplankton?

Creator:: Behrenfeld, Michael J., Chapman, John W., Hardy, John T., and Lee II, Henry
Abstract:: Global increases in ultraviolet-B radiation (UVBR) have the potential to alter marine primary production and to affect carbon cycles and marine trophic dynamics. Estimates of UVBR induced photoinhibition have varied greatly, indicating that a common dose-response by marine phytoplankton may not occur from place to place. An action spectrum describing...

Photoacclimation of natural phytoplankton communities

Creator:: Graff, Jason R., Westberry, Toby K., Milligan, Allen J., Brown, Matthew B., Dall’Olmo, Giorgio, Reifel, Kristen M., and Behrenfeld, Michael J.
Abstract:: ABSTRACT: Phytoplankton regulate internal pigment concentrations in response to light and nutrient availability. Chlorophyll a to phytoplankton carbon ratios (chl:C phyto) are commonly reported as a function of growth irradiance (Eg) for evaluating the photoacclimation response of phytoplankton. In contrast to most culture experiments, natural phytoplankton communities experience fluctuating environmental...
