Temporal and vertical variations of lipid biomarkers during a bottom ice diatom bloom in the Canadian Beaufort Sea: further evidence for the use of the IP25 biomarker as a proxy for spring Arctic sea ice (2011, background): “Firstly, fatty acid (C14, C16:1x7, C16) concentration data for samples collected in early May were similar to those measured for the samples collected as part of the regular time series sampling programme, indicating that these sea ice samples could be considered as being representative.”
Phospholipid-derived fatty acids as chemotaxonomic markers for phytoplankton: application for inferring phytoplankton composition (2006, methodology): “Gradient mixing pumps delivered 3 mobilephase solvents: methanol/ammonium acetate, 90% acetonitril and 100% ethyl acetate (Rijstenbil 2003 and references therein).”
Fatty acid dynamics during the spring bloom in a High Arctic fjord: importance of abiotic factors versus community changes (2006, background): “…of biochemical changes in particulate organic matter (POM) have revealed a strong seasonality of fatty acid composition (Mayzaud et al. 1989; Skerratt et al. 1995; Reuss and Poulsen 2002), with the highest amounts of PUFAs usually found during the early phase of spring bloom (Parrish et al. 2005).”
Increased irradiance reduces food quality of sea ice algae (2010, background): “In phytoplankton blooms, the highest relative amounts of PUFAs occur usually during the early phase of the bloom, often prior to the biomass peak (Skerratt et al. 1995, Reuss & Poulsen 2002, Leu et al. 2006a).”
Non-consumptive mortality in copepods: occurrence of Calanus spp. carcasses in the Arctic Ocean during winter (2014, background): “Fatty acids and fatty alcohols characteristic of calanoid copepods (22:1n-11, 20:1n-9) have been found to be important components of lipid in particulates in water samples from under the ice north of Svalbard and in Greenland (Reuss and Poulsen, 2002;Scott et al. , 2002).”
Lipid biomarkers and trophic linkages between phytoplankton, zooplankton and anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) larvae in the NW Mediterranean (2006, unknown): “On the other hand, Reuss and Poulsen (Reuss and Poulsen, 2002) found a decrease of this ratio in a post-bloom situation, where the heterotrophic and autotrophic flagellates were dominant.”
Response of Antarctic, temperate, and tropical microalgae to temperature stress (2013, background): “of the fatty acids of a natural Arctic plankton community showed that, when the plankton was dominated by diatoms of the genera Thalassiosira and Chaetoceros, the proportions of C16:1(ω7) and C20:5(ω3) were correspondingly high (Reuss and Poulsen 2002).”
The Various Roles of Fatty Acids (2018, methodology): “Specific fatty acids and fatty acid ratios have been applied to evaluated the taxa composition of plankton communities, often resorting to multivariate analysis methods [245,284,285].”
