Framework for understanding marine ecosystem health (2013)
Journal Article
Tett, P., Gowen, R., Painting, S., Elliott, M., Forster, R., Mills, D., Bresnan, E., Capuzzo, E., Fernandes, T., Foden, J., Geider, R., Gilpin, L., Huxham, M., McQuatters-Gollop, A., Malcolm, S., Saux-Picart, S., Platt, T., Racault, M., Sathyendranath, S., van der Molen, J., & Wilkinson, M. (2013). Framework for understanding marine ecosystem health. Marine Ecology Progress Series, 494, 1-27. https://doi.org/10.3354/meps10539

Although the terms ‘health’ and ‘healthy’ are often applied to marine ecosystems and communicate information about holistic condition (e.g. as required by the Ecosystem Approach), their meaning is unclear. Ecosystems have been understood in various w... Read More about Framework for understanding marine ecosystem health.

Response of temperate microplankton communities to N:Si ratio perturbation (2003)
Journal Article

In order to study the effect of the nitrogen:silicon (N:Si) ratio on temperate microplankton food webs, mesocosm experiments were conducted in Trondheim (Norway) using two different ratios (molar ratios of 1:1 and 4:1). With the exception of diatoms,... Read More about Response of temperate microplankton communities to N:Si ratio perturbation.

The relationship between carbon and biovolume in marine microbial mesocosms under different nutrient regimes (2002)
Journal Article

Nutrient manipulation experiments were conducted on a natural planktonic community in outdoor mesocosms. Inorganic
nitrogen (N) and silicon (Si) were added to achieve N: Si ratios of 1:1 and 4: 1. Total particulate carbon (PC) biomass of
the microb... Read More about The relationship between carbon and biovolume in marine microbial mesocosms under different nutrient regimes.

Primary Production and Carbon uptake dynamics in the vicinity of south Georgia - balancing carbon fixation and removal (2002)
Journal Article

Primary production was measured at a series of stations in austral summer 1996 in the vicinity of South Georgia. Five stations were occupied along a 700 km transect southeastwards towards the western tip of South Georgia. Three stations were located...
