Some observations on marine phytoplankton kinetics: 2. the effect of nitrate and ammonium concentrations on the growth and uptake rates of the natural population of Ubatuba region, SP (23ºS, 045ºW)

Some observations on marine phytoplankton kinetics: 2. the effect of nitrate and ammonium concentrations on the growth and uptake rates of the natural population of Ubatuba region, SP (23ºS, 045ºW)

The phytoplankton Ks anã Vmax as a function of ammonium and nitrate concentrations were determined. The growth rate was estimated from measurements on synthesized chlorophyll-α and the cell number in the. culture media. The uptake rate was determined as to the consumption of ammonium and ni...
