Marine zooplankton comprise a phylogenetically and functionally diverse assemblage of
protistan and metazoan consumers that occupy multiple trophic levels in pelagic food webs …

Determining the lipid content and fatty acid (FA) composition of aquatic organisms has been
of major interest in trophic ecology, aquaculture, and nutrition for over half a century …

An overview is given of the multinational investigations carried out at 47° N 20° W for the
period 24 April–31 May, with the main emphasis on the succession of plankton communities …

Phytoplankton community composition profoundly affects patterns of nutrient cycling and the
dynamics of marine food webs; therefore predicting present and future phytoplankton …

Between March 1992 and April 1993, an intensive sampllng prqgam was carried out at a

THIS is the first collection of papers from the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS).
Formed as an international program in 1987, JGOFS has four principal elements: modelling …

Redfield stoichiometry has proved a robust paradigm for the understanding of biological
production and export in the ocean on a long-term and a large-scale basis. However …

In dilution experiments, filtered seawater is used to create a gradient of grazing pressure on
phytoplankton. Microzooplankton grazing is estimated by examining phytoplankton growth …

The production and fate of long-chain alkenones and alkenoates was examined with regard
to their use as palaeotemperature indicators. Alkenoate abundances were higher than …

This paper reports the concentrations and within-class distributions of long-chain alkenones
and alkyl alkenoates in the surface waters (0–50 m) of the eastern North Atlantic, and …
