Due to significant lipid and carbohydrate production as well as other useful properties such
as high production of useful biomolecular substrates (eg, lipids) and the ability to grow using …

Phytoplankton biomass in the world's oceans amounts to only∽ 1–2% of the total global
plant carbon, yet these organisms fix between 30 and 50 billion metric tons of carbon …

Penetration of light into aquatic ecosystems is greatly affected by the absorption and
scattering processes that take place within the water. Thus within any water body, the …

Aquatic Photosynthesis is a comprehensive guide to understanding the evolution and
ecology of photosynthesis in aquatic environments. This second edition, thoroughly revised …

We assembled a dataset of 14C‐based productivity measurements to understand the critical
variables required for accurate assessment of daily depth‐integrated phytoplankton carbon …

A new regulatory model can describe acclimation of phytoplankton growth rate (µ),
chlorophyll a: carbon ratio and nitrogen: carbon ratio to irradiance, temperature and nutrient …

Acclimation of the photosynthetic apparatus to changes of irradiance, temperature and
nutrient availability, involving regulation of the chlorophyll a: carbon ratio (g), is a universal …

The photosynthesis‐irradiance response (PE) curve, in which mass‐specific photosynthetic
rates are plotted versus irradiance, is commonly used to characterize photoacclimation. The …

Physiological acclimation to changes in light intensity and spectral quality is an important
factor determining variations in photosynthetic responses and growth rates of algae in …

Many microalgae, regardless of their origins, possess a similar biochemical composition (on
a basis of total organic carbon in the cells), particularly the relative amounts of crude protein …
