Abstract: | The possible mechanisms by which Cryptomonas phaseolus maintainsa large metalimnetic population during stratification were studiedin Lake Cisó. The population was shown to always remainat the oxygen-sulfide interface despite the fact that sometimesthe amount of light reaching was <1% of incident light. Thismeant that the amount of light reaching the peak was sometimesmuch lower than the optimum light intensity for photosynthesisof the population, which was |
