TL;DR: In this article, the mass of methanol in the atmospheric reservoir, the annual mass flux from sources to sinks, and the estimated atmospheric lifetime of the free troposphere, marine boundary layer, continental boundary layer and in-cloud were evaluated.

TL;DR: It is concluded that heterotrophic dinoflagellates may have an equally important impact as microheterotrophic grazers of phytoplankton and bacteria in oceanic waters.

TL;DR: Responses to small-scale turbulence on two species of dinoflagellates examined in cultures where the turbulent forces came randomly from all directions and were intermittent both spatially and temporally support a hypothesis that A. catenella actively concentrates at depths with low turbulence and shear.

TL;DR: To test the paradigm, 10 species of autotrophic dinoflagellates were exposed to quantified three‐dimensional turbulence generated by vertically oscillating cylindrical rods in 20‐L rectangular culture tanks and found that dinof lagellate growth is negatively affected by turbulence.

TL;DR: The constancy of this ratio, the parallel changes in RuBPCase activity with Pmax and the constant chl a cell-1 in the Sargasso Sea imply that for P. noctiluca and presumably P. fusiformis in nature, a dark enzymatic step rather than changes in photosynthetic pigment concentrations may regulate the photosynthesis capacity in the changing photic environment.
