Identification of environmental factors affecting the abundance and distribution of phytoplanktons in Shamil Dam Lake [PDF]
Microscopic suspended algae, or phytoplankton, are the prime source of organic matter supporting food webs in freshwater ecosystems. Studying the distribution of their population and understanding the interactions between environmental factors and the ...

Nitrogen and phosphorus limitation of phytoplankton growth in New Zealand lakes: Implications for eutrophication control [PDF]
We examine macronutrient limitation in New Zealand (NZ) lakes where, contrary to the phosphorus (P) only control paradigm, nitrogen (N) control is widely adopted to alleviate eutrophication.

Predicting potential Arctic kelp distribution and lower‐depth biomass from seafloor irradiance
Abstract Kelps have an extensive distribution in Arctic coastal waters. However, quantifying their role in the Arctic food web and carbon cycle is challenged by the scarcity of documented geographical distribution, standing stocks and production. Here we present a framework based on an empirical function to predict the potential kelp distribution and ...

Sediment trap preservative choice impacts particle‐associated microbial community composition
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
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.

Nitrogen and phosphorus limitation of oceanic microbial growth during spring in the Gulf of Aqaba [PDF]
Bioassay experiments were performed to identify how growth of key groups within the microbial community was simultaneously limited by nutrient (nitrogen and phosphorus) availability during spring in the Gulf of Aqaba's oceanic waters.
