Buoyancy of natural populations of marine phytoplankton was studied in a fjord in western Norway during the diatom bloom and in autumn. The study was carried out under approximate in situ conditions by means of an apparatus described in the paper. During the spring bloom, positive buoyancy was obser

The hydrocarbon contents of 23 species of algae (22 marine planktonic), belonging to 9 algal classes, were analyzed. The highly unsaturated 3,6,9,12,15,i8-heneicosahexaene predominates in the Bacillariophyceae, Dinophyeeae, Cryptophyceae, Haptophyeeae and ]~uglenophyceae. Rhizosolenia setiffera cont
The effects of 3 oils (Venezuelan crude, No. 2 fuel, and No. 6 fuel) on the photosynthesis of natural phytoplankton communities from Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia (Canada), and the northwest Atlantic Ocean between Halifax and :Bermuda were examined using a radiocarbon method. The 3 oils can inhibit pho
Abstract Ambient ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is harmful to many biological systems and increased UVR, due to a reduced ozone layer, may have many unforeseen consequences. Viruses are the most abundant biological particles in the sea and are thought to play an important role in the structure and func
