Cetacean habitats in the northern Gulf of Mexico

TL;DR: In this article, both aerial and shipboard assessment surveys in the oceanic (>200 m depth) northern Gulf have identified and characterized the abundance and distribution of 20 species of cetaceans, all but one of which were odontocetes.

Freezing as a method of sample preservation for the analysis of dissolved inorganic nutrients in seawater

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of experiments on the storage of nutrient samples collected at the oligotrophic North Pacific benchmark Station ALOHA, using both standard auto-analyses and low-level techniques, reveal that the immediate freezing of an unfiltered water sample in a clean polyethylene bottle is a suitable preservation method.

Dynamics of Lake Michigan Phytoplankton: Mechanisms Controlling Epilimnetic Communities

TL;DR: In this paper, the epilimnetic algal and particulate organic carbon sedimentation rates, determined from moored and floating sediment traps, and algal loss rates due to crustacean zooplankton grazing, were estimated during 1983 and 1984 field seasons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic bacterial and viral response to an algal bloom at subzero temperatures

TL;DR: Results support, for the first time with modern molecular methods, previous culture-based observations of bacterial community succession during Arctic algal blooms and confirm that previously observed variability in pelagic microbial activity can be linked to changes in community structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simultaneous determinations of nitrification and nitrate reduction in coastal sediments by a 15N dilution technique.

TL;DR: Denitrification, or N2 production from nitrate, accounted for about 30% of the nitrate reduction and nitrification was far less intensive than previously reported.
