PNNL‐TUNAMELT: Toward automating the detection of interactions with marine energy devices using acoustic camera sensors

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Acoustic cameras, or imaging sonars, are often used to monitor marine energy sites in regions where the water is too dark or turbid for optical sensing. To do so more effectively, scientists are investigating automated detection methodologies to use on these data.

Predicting plankton net community production in the Atlantic Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present, test and implement two contrasting models to predict euphotic zone net community production (NCP), which are based on 14C primary production (PO14CP) to NCP relationships over two latitudinal (ca.

Sediment trap preservative choice impacts particle‐associated microbial community composition

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding and quantifying the microbial contribution to particulate organic matter (POM) flux and carbon cycling in the ocean relies largely on the collection of sinking POM. A critical aspect of evaluating microbial communities on sediment trap‐collected POM is their preservation until recovery and sample processing.

The IceShark, an effective method for sampling plankton under sea ice

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Seasonal sea ice plays a crucial role in shaping coastal ecosystem dynamics throughout the circumpolar region. Of particular interest to oceanographers is the ice‐ocean interface which functions as a multidimensional habitat, supporting both sympagic algae and pelagic phytoplankton in the under‐ice surface waters.

Lake Maggiore: geomorphological genesis, lake-level evolution, and present and future ecosystems importance

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2023
Lake Maggiore, the second deeper and larger south alpine lake, was selected as a model system to detect the potential damages on water resources, biodiversity and ecosystem health caused by different water levels during the lake-level regulation period (

Combined stable isotope and gut contents analysis of food webs in plant-dominated, shallow lakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
1. To determine feeding links between primary producers, invertebrates and fish, stable isotope analyses and gut content analyses of fish were conducted on the components of four shallow, eutrophic to hypertrophic, plant-dominated lakes. 2.

Chemical stabilization of glass microfiber type F filters for measuring particulate phosphorus using the extra high‐temperature dry combustion method

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate quantification of particulate phosphorus is critical for understanding biogeochemical processes in aquatic systems. Extra high‐temperature dry combustion at 800°C improves phosphorus recovery by ~ 11% compared to lower‐temperature methods.

Comparing non‐staining methods with Mutvei's solution to visualize growth increments in short‐lived intertidal marine gastropod shells

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Mutvei's solution is a widely utilized standard staining method for revealing growth increments in biogenic carbonates; however, it is a slightly toxic, destructive approach with varying success across species groups. Therefore, there has been growing interest in finding non‐toxic, less destructive, and straightforward alternative techniques ...

Comparison between fluorometry and microscopy‐based phytoplankton assessments in the Laurentian Great Lakes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Photosynthetic pigment fluorescence is commonly used in limnology and oceanography as a proxy for phytoplankton biomass. Fluorometry has been used to detect subsurface algal blooms, characterize dynamics of the deep chlorophyll layer, and to provide greater vertical resolution to phytoplankton monitoring.
