Abstract: | Natural assemblages of Aureococcus anophagefferens collectedfrom the coastal bays of Maryland and Long Island, New Yorkoccurred under water quality conditions higher in dissolvedorganic carbon and phosphorus (relative to nitrogen) than thosesame stations when Aureococcus was not present in significantnumbers. Additional work, both in culture and in the field,confirmed the importance of a heterotrophic nutritional modein this brown tide organism. |
