• A novel model for cyanobacteria bloom formation: the critical role of anoxia and ferrous iron (2014, background): “Freshwater picoplankton (which consists of bacteria-sized cyanobacteria and eukaryotic species) make up 0–90% of algal abundance in oligotrophic systems (V€or€os et al., 1998; Bell & Kalff, 2001; Callieri & Stockner, 2002; Callieri et al., 2007).”
• Response of phytoplankton communities to increased anthropogenic influences (southwestern lagoon, New Caledonia) (2006, result): “This trend is in agreement with meta-analyses of data from various marine (e.g. Chisholm 1992, Agawin et al. 2000) and freshwater environments (Bell & Kalff 2001), although some of these trends may be corrupted by spurious correlations when chlorophyll is used to define the trophic status (Berges…”
• Abundance and distribution of picoplankton in tropical, oligotrophic Lake Kivu, eastern Africa (2008, background): “Bell & Kalff (2001) reported a significant positive relationship between picoplankton abundance and total chlorophyll a (Chl a) in a large number of lakes and over a large biomass range.”
• Picophytoplankton in Freshwater Ecosystems: The Importance of Small-Sized Phototrophs (2008, methodology): “As a matter of fact, we may infer from the Stockner model that the more oligotrophic are the conditions of lakes or oceans, the greater is the probable importance of picophytoplankton relative to other autotrophs (Bell & Kalff, 2001).”
• Late summer phytoplankton distribution along a 3500 km transect in Canadian Arctic waters: strong numerical dominance by picoeukaryotes (2009, background): “The main taxonomic references used to identify the phytoplankton were Tomas (1997) and Bérard-Therriault et al. (1999).”
• Increasing importance of small phytoplankton in a warmer ocean (2010, background): “Picophytoplankton cells have a ubiquitous distribution and contribute significant portions of bulk phytoplankton biomass and production (Agawin et al., 2000; Bell & Kalff, 2001).”
• Picophytoplankton - a comparative study of their biochemical composition and photosynthetic properties (2005, background): “Based on a large-scale inventory of existing data Chisholm (1992b), and more recently Bell and Kalff (2001), concluded that the importance of picophytoplankton dropped significantly to less than 20% when the total chlorophyll-a concentration exceeds 1 Ag/l.”
• Physiological responses of three species of marine pico-phytoplankton to ammonium, phosphate, iron and light limitation (2005, background): “, 1996), but also in terms of primary production (Bell and Kalff, 2001).”
• The Role of Autotrophic Picocyanobacteria in Calcite Precipitation in an Oligotrophic Lake (2004, methodology): “Based on the qualitative model of Bell and Kalff (2001) we estimated for Lake Lucerne that the picoplankton contributed almost half (48”
• Freshwater autotrophic picoplankton: a review (2002, background): “Some studies reported an inverse relationship between the picoplankton contribution to total carbon fixation and lake trophic state (Petersen 1991; Bell & Kalff 2001), while others demonstrated a high APP contribution to total phytoplanktonic production in eutrophic lakes (Vörös et al. 1991) and a…”
• Calcium carbonate precipitation by cyanobacterial polysaccharides (2010, background): “They contribute significantly to the overall primary production in ecosystems of all climatic zones (Agawin et al. 2000; Stockner et al. 2000; Bell & Kalff 2001).”
• Small Players, Large Role: Microbial Influence on Biogeochemical Processes in Pelagic Aquatic Ecosystems (2002, background): “…and limnetic systems recently showed that picophytoplankton increase as a proportion of the total phytoplankton community in oligotrophic systems (Bell and Kalff 2001), suggesting that the same advantages that small prokaryotic heterotrophs have in oligotrophic systems are also advantageous to…”
• Seasonal dynamics of picoplankton in shelf waters of the southern Bay of Biscay (2006, background): “However, it must be borne in mind that relatively low values of phytoplanktonic biomass were recorded during the sampled period, and that reviews showing a decreasing contribution of picophytoplankton with increasing total biomass include much higher values (Bell & Kalff 2001).”
