A model for several algal species which compete both for light and for nutrients, and which are also subject to settling and diffusion, is considered. The settling speeds and diffusion coefficients are assumed to be small, in a sense to be made precise later, and a singular perturbation argument is

Four indoor model ecosystems with natural plankton communities have been run. Two of the systems are exposed to artificial photosynthetic active radiation (PAR, 20 W mm2 for 16 h per day) and UV-B radiation ( = 0.64 W me2 for 6 h per day), while the other two are exposed to PAR only. Photosynthesis,
The interactive effects of copper and zinc on two estuarine planktonic ciliates, Favella sp. and Balanion sp., were determined in seawater media in which the free metal ion activities were controlled by nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) trace metal ion buffer systems. Cupric ion activities of 10 -l~ M cau
