An empirical model of the phytoplankton chlorophyll : carbon ratio‐the conversion factor between productivity and growth rate

TL;DR: An empirical model that describes the ratio of phytoplankton chlorophyll a to carbon, Chl : C, as a function of temperature, daily irradiance, and nutrient-limited growth rate gives rise to interactive light-nutrient effects in which growth efficiency increases with nutrient availability under low-light conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trawling-induced resuspension and dispersal of muddy sediments and dissolved elements in the Gulf of Lion (NW Mediterranean)

TL;DR: A dedicated trawling experiment was performed at three sites on the Gulf of Lion continental shelf, with the aim of assessing the resuspension of particulate and dissolved matter triggered by different types of trawls on muddy sediments as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamics of nutrient cycling and related benthic nutrient and oxygen fluxes during a spring phytoplankton bloom in South San Francisco Bay (USA)

TL;DR: These models show that algal blooms influence benthic-pelagic nutrient exchange through 2 processes: depletion of nutrients from the water column (which enhances gradient-driven transports across the sediment-water interface) and sedimentation of labile phytodetritus (which promotes remineralization in or on the surficial sediments).
