Latitudinal distribution of diazotrophs and their nitrogen fixation in the tropical and subtropical western North Pacific (2009, background): “…Kitajima et al. N2 fixation in the western North Pacific 545 bacteria are characterized by a higher iron demand than unicellular cyanobacteria (Berman-Frank et al. 2007), raising the possibility that the observed seasonal difference in the abundance of microplanktonic diazotrophs is…”
Interconnection of nitrogen fixers and iron in the Pacific Ocean: Theory and numerical simulations (2012, background): “These are a more formal representation of the findings of Monteiro et al. [2011], are consistent with observations [Moore et al., 2009; Church et al., 2008; Mills et al., 2004; Berman-Frank et al., 2007], and provide a solid mechanistic interpretation of nutrient control on diazotrophy.”
Phytoplankton in a changing world: cell size and elemental stoichiometry (2010, background): “…stoichiometry of phytoplankton taxa to environmental factors such as irradiance, temperature and nutrient concentrations (Finkel et al., 2006; Berman-Frank et al., 2007; Finkel et al., 2007a; Fu et al., 2007; Hutchins et al., 2007; Fu et al., 2008) can be of similar or larger magnitude than…”
Environmental control of open‐ocean phytoplankton groups: Now and in the future (2010, background): “Fe : C ratios of Cyanothece (Berman-Frank et al. 2007) and Crocosphaera (Fu et al. 2008) are significantly lower than for Trichodesmium, indicating less potential for Fe limitation for these unicells.”
Nitrogen fixation in the western equatorial Pacific: Rates, diazotrophic cyanobacterial size class distribution, and biogeochemical significance (2009, background): “Berman-Frank et al. [2007] determined that the Fe:C ratio of Trichodesmium are up to 100 times higher than those of unicellular diazotrophs such”
Latitudinal distribution of Trichodesmium spp. and N 2 fixation in the Atlantic Ocean (2010, background): “This is a well written and interesting paper focused on the latitudinal variation in Trichodesmium abundance and rates of nitrogen fixation in the north, equatorial and south Atlantic (sub) tropical ocean.”
The global nitrogen cycle in the twenty-first century (2013, background): “One of the key uncertainties in the rates of marine BNF is spatial variability, since these are coupled to the supply of other nutrients required for the processes, especially phosphorus and iron whose supply is spatially variable [19].”
Interactions between changing pCO2, N2 fixation, and Fe limitation in the marine unicellular cyanobacterium Crocosphaera (2008, methodology): “Issues with incomplete acid digestion may also explain why our Fe : C ratios for Crocosphaera are ,36- fold higher than those reported by Berman-Frank et al. (2007) for another related unicellular diazotrophic cyanobacterium, Cyanothece.”
