Light-limited photosynthetic carbon incorportion is expectedto be directly proportional to the scalar quantum irradiance.The proportionality constant is , where mis the maximum quantum yield (mol C Einstein1 absorbed)and $$\stackrel{\¯}{{\hbox{ k }}_{\hbox{ c }}}$$ isthe mean spectral absorption coefficient (m2 mg1 chla). Recent efforts to evaluate of in situphytoplankton photosynthesis are variously flawed. Lack of evidenceof proportionality and lack of correction of cosine to scalarirradiance are common deficiencies. Most data, as we interpretthem, indicate values in the range 0.0003 0.0006 mol C m2 Einstein1 abs mg1 chl a. New determinationsin lrondequoit Bay, New York, lie in this range. Most estimatesof at depth have been about 0.010 m2 mg1chl a. Similar values are being obtained for total particulatesfrom lrondequoit Bay; whether detritus contributes significantlyis not yet known. Published data, in our view, all point tovalues of m in situ in the range 0.030.07 mol C Einstein1abs. Published values >0.10 are almost certainly due to imprecisionor systematic error.

Factors controlling primary production in a hypertrophic lake (Hartbeespoort Dam, South Africa) 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The physical factors controlling algal primary production weredemonstrated from data collected for a hypertrophic lake. Amaxranged between 12.4 and 5916 mg C m3 h1. Arealrates (A) varied between 46.9 and 3381 mg C m2 h1.The factors permitting and controlling production were subjectivelyseparated into two categories. In category 1, nutrients (N +P), which were in overabundance, permitted large standing cropsof Microcystis aeruginosa to develop (>1000 µg chla 11). Wind patterns determined the dramatic spatialand temporal changes in algal standing crop which could dropto 2.7 µg chl a 11. In category 2 were the factorswhich affected the rate processes. The buoyancy mechanism ofMicrocystis usually kept the alga in the euphotic zone. A powerrelationship (r = 0.92, n = 54) between A and Amax/min showedthat with increasing phytoplankton vertical stratification,Amax was increasingly important in the integral. The saturationparameter IK and photosynthetic capacity were temperature dependent.Variations of A were significantly related to changes in watercolumn stability (g cm cm2) because both axes of thephotosynthesis depth-profile were affected by stability changes. 相似文献

Primary production was measured for 7 years, using the in situ14C-method in hypertrophic Hartbeespoort Dam, South Africa,to examine the influence of light and water temperature on theupper limit of Microcystis aeruginosa production. Water temperaturesvaried from 11 to >25°C and chlorophyll concentrationsreached 6500 mg m3. The maximum volumetric rate of production(Amax) was 12->8800 mg C m3 h1 with areal productions(A) of 69->3300 mg C m2 h1 for euphotic zonedepths of <0.58.4 m. The intrinsic parameters of phytoplanktonproduction (, Amax/B, Ik) indicated that the phytoplankton populationwas adapted to high light levels. Both Amax/B and Ik were correlatedwith temperature. Under optimal conditions, , the theoreticalupper limit of A, was calculated to be 2.8 g Cm2 h1,while the measured rate was 2.5 g Cm2 h1. Measuredareal rates exceeding were overestimated due to methodologicalproblems when working with Microcystis scums. Light and watertemperature interacted to yield high production rates: watertemperature through its direct effect on photosynthetic ratesand indirectly in the formation of diurnal mixed layers; lightindirectly through water temperature and directly through itsattenuation and induction of light-adapted physiology in Microcystis. 相似文献

Nutrient-sufficient cultures of a Trondheimsfjord (Norway) cloneof the marine centric diatom Skeleionema costatum (Grev.) Clevewere grown at 75 µmol m2 s1 and 15C at24 and 12 h daylength to study diurnal variations and the effectof daylength on pigment and chemical composition, photosyntheticparameters, dark respiration rates and scaled fluorescence excitationspectra (F), the latter used as estimates for the absorptionof energy available to Photosystem II. Specific growth rateswere 1.06 and 0.56 day in 24 and 12 h daylength, respectively,while dark respiration rates were generally 85% of the net growthrate. The Chla-normalized photosynthetic coefficients PBm andaB were {small tilde}2025% higher in continuous lightthan at 12 h daylength, while the Chla:C ratio was {small tilde}15%lower (0.051 versus 0.061 w:w). Thus, the carbon-normalizedcoefficients Pcm and ac were <11% lower at 24 h than at 12h daylength. The maximum quantum yield max, the Chla:C ratioand F differed negligibly, as did the light saturation indexlk, the N:C ratio and the ratios Chlc:Chla and Fucoxanthin:Chla. PBm and lk did not exhibit diurnal variations at 24 hdaylength, and varied within 23% of the daily mean at 12 h daylength.Predictions of the daily gross photosynthetic rate based ondata for a given time of the day should thus not be >10%in error relative to an integrated value based on several datasets collected through 24 h. max was 0.0840.117 mol O2(mol photons) for gross oxygen evolution. However, ifused in mathematical models for predicting the gross and netgrowth rates (i.e. the gross and net carbon turnover rates),practical values of 0.076 and 0.040 g-at C (molphotons), respectively, should be employed. Correspondingly,values for aB and PBm should be adjusted pro rata.

Occurrence of mycosporine-like amino acids in the red-tide dinoflagellate Alexandrium excavatum: UV-photoprotective compounds? 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Carreto J.I.; Carignan M.O.; Daleo G.; Marco S.G.De 《Journal of plankton research》1990,12(5):909-921
Water extracts of the red-tide dinoflagellate Alexandrium excavatumgrown at high light intensity (200 µE m2s1) show a broad absorbance maximum in the UV regionof the spectrum (310360 nm). Using TLC and reverse-phaseHPLC a series of mycosporine-like amino acids have been characterized:mycosporine-glycine (max = 310 nm), palythine (max = 320 nm),asterina-330 (max = 330 nm), shinorine (max = 334 nm), porphyra-334(max= 334 nm), palythenic acid (max = 337 nm) and the isomericmixture of usujirene and palythene (max = 359 nm). From theobserved spectral changes during transference from low(20 µE m2 s1) to high (200µE m2 s1) light intensities and vice versa,the series of compounds are supposed to be biogenically relatedto one another. The presence of these compounds in A.excavatumis discussed in relation to their possible role in the photoprotectionto deleterious UV radiation. 相似文献

In situ light measurements were used to obtain information oninherent and apparent optical properties. The average verticalattenuation coefficient Kd(ave) varied from 1.1 to 4.6 In unitsm1 During three periods the variation in Kd(ave) correlatedwith changes in chlorophyll a concentration and specific attenuationcoefficients Ks, of 0.013, 0.014 and 0.022 m2 mg Chl a1were calculated. Chlorophyll-specific diffuse absorption coefficients(A,) for these periods were 0.012. 0.013 and 0.017 m2 mg Chla1 and only varied significantly from estimates of Ksin the period when scattering was intense. Absorption coefficientsa(zmid) and scattering coefficients b(zmid) calculated for themid-point of the euphotic zone ranged between 0.45 and 2.9 mand 3.552.0 m respectively. Chlorophyll-specific absorptioncoefficients Ka, of 0.005, 0.006 and 0.007 m2 mg Chl a1and scattering coefficients Kb of 0.05. 0.09 and 0.191 m2 mgChl a1 were measured during the three periods. The highKb value occurred when gas-vacuolate cyanobactena were dominant.Algal photosynthesis and light absorption were related throughthe maximum quantum yield m which varied between 0.019 and 0.11mol C Einstein1 while average quantum yields a, variedbetween 0.006 and 0.024 with a mean of 0.013 mol C Einstein1A comparison of changes in the mean irradiance of the mixedzone and chlorophyll concentration indicated that growth waslight limited below 0.040.05 Einsteins absorbed mg Chla1 day1. 相似文献

Journal of Plankton Research, 11, 12731295, 1989. The values of P/U0 (Table I) and fluid velocity used to calculatethe energy required for sieving (pp. 12891290) and severalequations (footnote b of Table I; p. 1290, lines 34)are incorrect. The corrected table appears below: Table I.

Formula from Jørgensen (1983). The text (p. 1289, line 19 to p. 1290, line 10) should read: organism. Using a similar argument, a 0.5 mm Ceriodaphnia witha filter area of 0.025 mm2 (Ganf and Shiel, 1985) and pressuredrop P = 2757 dyn cm2 (with fluid velocity of 0.07 cms1) allocates only 2171 ergs h1 to filtrationof a total energy expenditure of 104 ergs h1 [filtrationenergy (ergs h1) = area (cm2) x pressure drop (dyn cm2)x 3600 (s h1) x 1/0.2 (efficiency of conversion of biochemicalinto mechanical work); total energy (ergs h1) = respiration(0.05 µl O2 ind1 h1 consumed; Gophen, 1976)x conversion factor (2 x 105 ergs µl1 O2). Withan estimated 0.034 mm2 in filter area, fluid velocity of 0.041cm s1 and respiration of 1.8 x 104 ergs h1 (calculatedfrom Porter and McDonough, 1984), a 0.5 mm Bosmina uses <4%of its metabolism to overcome filter resistance. The velocities used in the original examples (0.4 cm s1for Ceriodaphnia, 0.2 cm s1 for Bosmina) were derivedfrom literature values of appendage beat rate and estimatesof the distance travelled by the appendages during each beatcycle. This approach unnecessarily assumes that all water movedpasses through the filter. In the new calculations, the flowacross the filter needed for food to be collected by sieving(0.07 cm s1 for Ceriodaphnia and 0.041 cm s1 forBosmina) was determined from the maximum clearance rate/filterarea. The amended energy expenditures, although higher, do notrefute the sieve model of particle collection. 相似文献

Ecological studies on the phytoplankton of Boknafjorden, western Norway. II. Environmental control of photosynthesis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Both predicted (incubator) and measured (in situ) 14C-assimilationrates were studied from February to November 1981 at three stationsin Boknafjorden, a deep silled fjord of western Norway. Sampleswere taken from different light depths within the euphotic zone.A high degree of conformity was found between the two approaches.Daily values of carbon assimilation integrated over the euphoticzone varied between 0.05 and 1.4 g C m2. Yearly primaryproduction varied between stations from 82 to 112 g C m2(120148 g C m2 when based on average light conditions).The light-saturation curve parameters B and PBmax ranged from0.0056 to 0.0537 mg C mg Chla1 h1 µE1m2 and from 0.7 to 8.5 mg C mg Chla1 h2 (in situassimilation numbers ranged from 0.9 to 9.3 mg C mg Chla1h1) respectively, which compare well with those publishedfrom the northwestern side of the Atlantic. The overall importanceof light in controlling photosynthesis throughout the year wasrevealed by the light utilization index , estimated to be 0.43mg C mg Chla1 E1 m2. The maximum quantum yieldwas encountered on August 17, with 0.089 mol CE1. Chla/Cratios above and below 0.010 were found to be typical for shade-and light-adapted cells respectively. Assimilation numbers andgrowth rates were linearly related only when considering light-adaptedcells. Consistent with the findings of this study, the applicabilityof IK, B and PBmax as indicators of light-shade adaptation propertiesshould be questioned. Maximum growth rates were encounteredduring an autumn bloom of the dinoflagellate Gyrodinium aureolum(1.0 doublings day1), while 0.70.8 doublings day1were found for a winter bloom (water temperature of 2°C)of the diatom Skeletonema costatum. No unambiguous temperatureeffect on assimilation number and growth of phytoplankton couldbe recognized in Boknafjorden. A tendency towards increasedassimilation numbers coinciding with increased water columnstability was revealed. The highest PBmax values were oftenencountered at almost undetectable nutrient concentrations.At least during summer this could be attributed to recyclingof nutrients by macro- and/or microzooplankton, responsiblefor a greater part of the primary production now being grazeddown. This study supports the convention that the depth of theeuphotic zone may extend considerably below the 1% light depth. 相似文献

Diurnal series of fluorescence and photosynthesis assays wereconducted in high altitude (3803 m), tropical (16°), LakeTiticaca (Peru/Bolivia). Near-surface diurnal thermoclines formedon typical days of high photon flux density (PFD, {small tilde}2000 µE m2 s1). In the depth range of diurnalstratification profiles of in vivo fluorescence, both without(Fa and with (Fb DCMU, exhibited a mean decrease of 64% frommorning to mid-day, but little change (mean increase of 1.5%)through the afternoon. Three times during the day surface, mid-depth(35 m) and deep (1520 m) phytoplankton sampleswere incubated with H14CO3 under short (<2 h) exposuresto a range of in situ PFDs. Comparison of phytoplankton in differentsamples (ANOVA) showed identical photosynthetic response insunrise (isothermal) samples but a significant drop in surfaceand mid-depth photosynthesis at all PFDs during times of diurnalstratification. Similarly, both low-light () and light-saturated(P2 max photosynthetic parameters were lower in mid-day surfacesamples compared to deep samples. In addition, previously photoinhibitedsamples had a higher threshold intensity for photoinhibition,IT. These results, together with diurnal time series of fluorescencefrom in situ incubations, demonstrate that recovery from extendedepisodes of photoinhibition during diurnal stratification isslower than suggested by previous observations in vitro. Photosynthesisby near-surface phytoplankton is different in light increasingup to IT than light decreasing from IT. This effect can be modeledby reducing and Pmax as a function of the maximum photoinhibitingPFD in the diurnal light history.

A strain of the marine rotifer Synchaeta cecilia valentina,n. subsp., isolated from the Hondo of Elche Spanish Mediterraneancoastal lagoon at 22 salinity, was cultured in the laboratoryin 20 ml test tubes and fed with the alga Tetrasemis suecica.The effect of two temperatures (20 and 24°C), four salinities(20,25,30 and 37) and two food levels (15 000 and 25000 cellsml1) on the life history traits of this rotifer werestudied in life tables performed with replicated individualcultures. Temperature and salinity had a significant negativeeffect (P < 0.001) on the average lifespan (LS) and on thenumber of offspring per female (R0) The effect of food levelon LS is unclear, whereas R0 is greater at 20°C with thelower concentration of algae and at 24°C with the higheralgal concentration. The maximum values of LS and R0, 5.6 daysand 9.2 offspring per female, respectively, were recorded at20°C, 25o salinity and low food concentration. There isalso a clear negative effect on the intrinsic growth rate (r)due to salinity. The effect of temperature depends on the foodlevel and, as occurs with R0 the maximum values of r occur withthe lower algal concentration at 20°C, whereas at 24°Cthey are obtained with the higher algal concentration. Theser values, from 1.04 to 1.10 day1, were reached at 24°C,salinities of 2025 and with high food concentration. 相似文献

Instruments now in common use among biologists for measuringunderwater photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) werecompared as part of the Group on Aquatic Primary Productionworkshop. The effect of differences in spectral response (narrowversus broad wavebands) and collecting properties (cosine versusscalar) on measurements of vertical (diffuse) attenuation coefficient() were tested. As instruments measuring spectral quality canbe expensive a low-cost manual interference-band-filter photometeris described and compared with a scanning spectroradiometer.In Bodensee there was a progressive narrowing of the spectralwaveband with depth, so that by 15 m nearly 75% of the totalquanta were between 525 and 575 nm. Therefore values of forPAR, measured with broad waveband sensors, decreased with depth.With narrow waveband sensors values of were constant with depth.Attenuation was similar with both scalar and cosine instruments.However, comparisons of absolute values were difficult becauseof incorrect calibrations. It is recommended that the calibrationof scalar instruments should be more precisely defined, andthat the intrinsic depth-variability of for PAR should notbe neglected when interpreting measurements.

On the causes of interspecific differences in the growth-irradiance relationship for phytoplankton. II. A general review 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The causes of interspecific differences in the µ-l relationshipare examined in the context of a mechanistic model which relatesµ to irradiance in terms of six factors:, kc photosyntheticquotient (PQ), Chl a:C, respiration and excretion. The effectof cell size on the light saturated growth rate is also considered.It is shown that photosynthetic efficiency and PQ exhibit remarkablylittle interspecific variability, and average 0.024 ±0.005 µg C(µg Chl a)1 h1 (µEm2 s1)1 and 1.5 ± 0.2 mol 02 molC1 (when NO3 is the nitrogen source) respectively.Two useful relationships were derived: (i) between growth efficiency,g and Chl a:C at µ. = 0; (ii) between the compensationintensity, Ic and the Chl a-specific maintenance respirationrate. Both relationships were independent of temperature anddaylength. Species best adapted to growth at low light werefound to exhibit high Chl a:C ratios and low maintenance respirationrates. As a group, diatoms were consistently the best adaptedfor growth at low irradiance. Chiorophytes, haptophytes, chrysophytesand cryptophytes were intermediate in their performance at lowirradiance. Dinoflagellates exhibited extreme diversity, withspecies spanning the spectrum from very good performance atlow irradiance to very poor. A new µmax-cell carbon relationshipis given based on growth rates normalized to 15°C. Evidenceis presented to show that noise in this relationship can besignificantly reduced by using only carbon-specific growth ratesand using only data for species grown at the same daylength. 相似文献

A large (1200 1) seawater sample from the Gulf of Maine waskept under constant temperature and light conditions for a periodof 72 h. Circadian variations were observed in the photosyntheticcapacity (PBmax) and efficiency (B); these occurred in phase,and were not related to changes in chlorophyll concentrations.Such observations are consistent with the hypothesis that oscillationsin photosynthetic characteristics of natural phytoplankton aremediated by an endogenous circadian rhythm.

Planktonic primary production in the German Wadden Sea 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
By combining weekly data of irradiance, attenuation and chlorophylla concentrations with photosynthesis (P) versus light intensity(E) curve characteristics, the annual cycle of planktonic primaryproduction in the estuarine part of the Northfrisian WaddenSea was computed for a 2 year period. Daily water column particulategross production ranged from 5 to 2200 mg C m2 day1and showed a seasonal pattern similar to chlorophyll a. Budgetcalculation yielded annual gross particulate primary productionsof 124 and 176 g C m2 year1 in 1995 and 1996,respectively. Annual amounts of phytoplankton respiration, calculatedaccording to a two-compartment model of Langdon [in Li,W.K.W.and Maestrini,S.Y. (eds), Measurement of Primary Productionfrom the Molecular to the Global Scale. International Councilfor the Exploration of the Sea, Copenhagen, 1993, pp. 2036],and dissolved production in 1996, were both in the range of2439 g C m2 year1. Annual total net productionwas thus very similar to particulate gross production (127 and177 g C m2 year1 in 1995 and 1996, respectively).Phytoplankton growth was low or even negative in winter. Inspring and summer, production/biomass (Pr/B) ratios varied from0.2 up to 1.7. Phytoplankton growth during the growth seasonalways surpassed average flushing time in the area, thus underliningthe potential of local phytoplankton bloom development in thispart of the Wadden Sea. The chlorophyll-specific maximum photosyntheticrate (PBmax) ranged from 0.8 to 9.9 mg C mg1 Chl h1and was strongly correlated with water temperature (r2 = 0.67).By contrast, there was no clear seasonal cycle in B, which rangedfrom 0.007 to 0.039 mg C mg1 Chl h1 (µmolphotons m2 s1)1. Its variability was muchless than PBmax and independent of temperature. The magnitudeand part of the variability of PBmax and B are presumably causedby changes in species composition, as evidenced from the rangeof these parameters found among 10 predominant diatom speciesisolated from the Wadden Sea. The ratio of average light conditionsin the water column (Eav) to the light saturation parameterEk indicates that primary production in the Wadden Sea regionunder study is predominantly controlled by light limitationand that nutrient limitation was likely to occur for a few hoursper day only during 5 (dissolved inorganic nitrogen) to 10 (PO4,Si) weeks in the 2 year period investigated. 相似文献

Photoadaptation in Antarctic phytopfankton: variations in growth rate, chemical composition and P versus I curves 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The response of phytoplankton to variations in the light regimewas studied during the VULCAN and ACDA cruises in the Antarctic.Unenriched batch cultures of 1219 days' duration reachedchl concentrations of 1050 µg1 and exhibitedexponential growth rates, with the maximal rate being 0.41 doubl,day1. Ice edge algae exhibited maximum growth rates atphoton flux densities (PFD) of 30100 µE m2S1and the growth rate was reduced by about 30% at 5001000µE m2S1 The chl/C ratio ranged between 0.004and 0.018, with the lowest ratios at PFDs above 500 µEm2S1 chl/C ratios were also below maximum at PFDsbelow 4050 µE m2S1 The C:N:P ratioswere close to the Redfield ratios; the Si/C ratio averaged 0.16(atoms), and the ATP/C ratio averaged from 0.0024 to 0.0050in different culture senes. When thawed after having been frozenfor 10 days, shade-adapted cultures were in a much better conditionthan sun-adapted ones. P versus I data showed that the maximumassimilation number varied from 0.75 to 4.4 µg C (µgchl)1h1. It varied inversely with the chl/C ratio;therefore the maximum carbon turnover rate varied little betweensamples (0.024/0.035 h1). Low biomass communities exhibitedrelatively high values for (the initial slope of P versus Icurves), low values for 1sat (160330 µE m2S1),and they were susceptible to photoinhibition. In contrast, communitiesdominated by Odontella weissflogii exhibited low values for, a high value for Isat (560 µE m2S1 andthey tolerated high PFDs. The photo-adaptational status of thephytoplankton in natural water samples is discussed relativeto the profile of water column stability and mixing processes. 相似文献

The two parameters of the hyperbolic tangent equation, Pm and, were estimated from in situ vertical profiles of primary productionusing mesocosm data along a nutrient gradient. The parameters,derived from 4-h (around noon) 14C incubations, were used togetherwith the photosynthesis-light curve and hourly solar radiationdata to calculate daily primary production rates (Pd). Approximately40% of the daily production occurred in the 4 h around noon.Considering parameter uncertainty, there was no indication ofan increase in variation in production with increased nutrientloading, nor did biomass-specific P-I parameters increase. Annualproduction ranged from 82 to 901 g C m2 year1and was highest in the highest nutrient treatment tank. Dailyproductivity ranged from 0.02 to 9.1 g C m2 day1and was significantly correlated, in all treatments, with acomposite parameter BI0/k (where B is phytoplankton biomass;I0 is daily radiation and k is the extinction coefficient).Linear regressions of Pd against BI0/k indicated that much ofthe variability (86%) in productivity was explained by lightavailability and phytoplankton biomass. Two approaches for predictingproductivity were compared: (i) predicting production directlyfrom environmental variables (i.e. BI0/k) and (ii) predictingthe parameters of the P-I curve from environmental variablesand using these to calculate daily production. 相似文献

Temporal and spatial variations in phytoplankton carbon isotopes in a polymictic subtropical lake 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Stable carbon isotopes (13C) were determined for phytoplanktonand dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) from Lake Apopka, a shallow,polymictic and hypereutrophic lake in Florida, USA. Bulk planktondominated by pico- and nanqanobacteria were enriched in 13(13.1± 1.1%) as a result of assimilation of extremely 13C-richDIC (13C = 9.6 ± 3.0%). Diatoms (Aulacoseira spp.) hada 13C of 14.3 ± 0.6% that was slightly more negativethan that of small cyanobacteria. Meroplanktonic diatoms hada 13C (13.6 ± 1.8%), similar to their planktoniccounterparts. The 13C of a colonial cyanobacterium (Microcystisincerta) was exceptionally heavy (3.0 ± 1.0%)and attributed to localized carbon limitation. Seasonal variationin 13C of bulk plankton was small (4%) relative to reports forother lacustrine systems No difference in the 13C of bulk planktonhorn surface water between stratified and non-stratified periodswas found. No measurable changes in 13C of bulk plankton wereindicated in light and dark incubation experiments Frequentwind mixing of the water column, high DIC concentration, andconsistently high lake productivity were used to explain thetemporal and spatial isotope consistency of phytoplankton inthis lake. 相似文献

On the occasion of the workshop of the group on aquatic primaryproductivity (GAP) held in Konstanz (1982), 14C-uptake rateswere determined by two widely used, well-established procedures.In order to avoid any variation in the results caused by manipulationof the samples, subsamples for both determinations were withdrawnfrom the same bottles. The acid-bubbling method (ABM) yieldedresults which exceeded those of the filtration method by about30%. Excretion of 14C labelled dissolved organic matter wasnegligibly small and therefore cannot account for the observeddifferences. Based on available information also other possibleexplanations discussed can Likely be dismissed. Hence additionaleffort is needed to identify and eliminate possible shortcomingsin either method.

[14C]-assimilation rates were measured on cultures of two unicellulargreen algae (Chlamydomonas sp. and Oocystis sp.) as a functionof light intensities (saturation curves), under steady lightand also under rapidly alternating high and low light intensities.Assimilation rates vary according to the frequency of the intermittentlight regime and it falls under two categories: (1) at 0.1 and0.2 Hz, the assimilation rate is equal to the average of therates observed at high and low light intensities under steadylight, and (2) under 1.0, 1.6 and 10 Hz the assimilation rateis equal to the rate observed under a mean steady irradiance.Moreover, the range of assimilation rates at a given frequencydepends on the difference between the high and the low intensities.Batch cultures of Oocystis sp. have been grown under intermittentlight of 0.1, 1.0 and 10.0 Hz (same mean intensity). Growthrate under intermittent light of 0.1 Hz is 40% lowerthan the control under steady light. Photosynthetic potential(PBmax)and efficiency () change with the growth stages of thecultures. At the end of the logarithmic growth phase, both photosyntheticparameters are maximum at 1.0 Hz and minimum at 0.1 Hz. Averagecell concentrations of chlorophyll a increase as the frequencyof the light regime decreases. During the log phase, concentrationof carotenoids relative to chlorophyll a increases at 1.0 Hz,decreases at 0.1 Hz, and remains constant at 10.0 Hz. Underclear sky conditions, wave-induced light fluctuations in thephotic layer may therefore enhance primary production, especially(1) in the lower part of the photic layer, where low frequencylight changes might cause cell chlorophyll a to increase, and(2) at a depth of 14 m, where the main frequencies (ofthe order of 1.0 Hz), might cause a significant increase ofboth the photosynthetic potential (PBmax)and efficiency ().
