Acoustic Backscatter from Phytoplankton
(2019-04-08)Methods for the detection and monitoring of phytoplankton are often limited by low temporal and spatial resolution. The use of a high-frequency broadband acoustic system could provide improvements both temporally and ... -
Examining temporal variations of phytoplankton photoacclimation using a novel fluorescence based approach
(2010-09-02)Models of primary production require parameters to describe photosynthesis as a function of irradiance, such as the saturation irradiance (Ek, ?mol photons m-2 s-1). However, this parameter varies in both time and space, ... -
INSIGHTS INTO THE INTERACTIVE EFFECTS OF TEMPERATURE AND IRON ON SOUTHERN OCEAN PHYTOPLANKTON
(2023-08-28)The photosynthetic conversion of CO2 into organic matter by phytoplankton sustains marine food webs, influences the long-term burial of atmospheric carbon, and underpins many other critical Earth system processes. Seasonal ... -
Oxygen Dynamics and Carbon Removal in Municipal Waste Stabilization Ponds in Arctic Regions
(2016-04-05)Abstract Waste Stabilization Ponds (WSPs) are commonly used for municipal wastewater management in Canadian Arctic communities. However, there has been limited research on WSP performance in these regions, and how ... -
Patterns and drivers of marine phytoplankton change over the past century
(2013-10-31)Marine phytoplankton produce the vast majority of primary production in the world’s oceans and sustain virtually all marine ecosystems. Despite this importance, it is currently unclear how global marine phytoplankton ... -
PATTERNS OF RUBISCO CONCENTRATIONS IN GLACIERIZED AND NON-GLACIERIZED ENVIRONMENTS ACROSS JONES SOUND, NU
(2022-11-21)Tidewater glaciers can enhance delivery of nutrients to the surface ocean. The Canadian Arctic Archipelago (CAA) has a high density of tidewater glaciers, but their influence on the marine environment, particularly ...
