Triclosan alterations of estuarine phytoplankton community structure
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2017Antimicrobial additives in pharmaceutical and personal care products are a major environmental concern due to their potential ecological impacts on aquatic ecosystems. Triclosan (TCS) has been used as an antiseptic, disinfectant, and preservative in various media.

LIMITING RESOURCES AND THE REGULATION OF DIVERSITY IN PHYTOPLANKTON COMMUNITIES
Ecology, 2001Species diversity is a key concept in ecology, yet the mechanisms regulating diversity in most systems are not completely understood. To address this issue, we analyzed the relationship between phytoplankton diversity and limiting resources (N, P, Si, and light) over two summers in three lakes in the Yellowstone (Wyoming, USA) region.

Water Research
Phytoplankton communities play a crucial role in the lake ecosystem due to their varying characteristics, functions, and impacts of different phytoplankton groups. Understanding the composition of phytoplankton groups in freshwater lakes is essential for comprehending geochemical processes and managing water quality.

An in situ toxicity assay with the local phytoplankton community
Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2011AbstractThe present study describes an approach for toxicity estimates based on the in situ exposure of the local phytoplankton community immobilized in calcium-alginate beads. The assay was deployed in an acid mine drainage-impacted system, at a reference site and an impacted site.

Effects of Polychlorinated Biphenyl on Marine Phytoplankton Communities
Nature, 1972WE report here the first in situ bioassay of short term effects of polychlorinated biphenyl compounds (PCBs) on natural marine phytoplankton communities. (Synthesis and utilization of these industrial organochlorines have been discussed before1–5.) PCB residues have been identified in water, biota and sediment samples throughout the marine environment5–

Phytoplankton Communities in Temperate Rivers
2012The structure of phytoplankton communities was examined seasonally across five rivers with a focus on small cells and their relative importance. Picophytoplankton (0.2-2 μm), previously considered insignificant in rivers, reached densities as high as those observed in lakes and oceans (~ 10e4-10e5 cells/mL). Their relative importance was not a function

Population and community responses of phytoplankton to fluctuating light
Oecologia, 1998Light is a major resource in aquatic ecosystems and has a complex pattern of spatio-temporal variability, yet the effects of dynamic light regimes on communities of phytoplankton are largely unexplored. I examined whether and how fluctuating light supply affects the structure and dynamics of phytoplankton communities.
