Element stoichiometries of individual plankton cells collected during the Southern Ocean Iron Experiment (SOFeX) (2004, background): “An electron microprobe (XRMA) study of heterotrophic bacterioplankton from the Sargasso Sea reported C : P to range from 59–143, but noted that previous XRMA studies of bacteria in coastal, brackish, and freshwater systems had found much lower C : P ratios (;13– 33) (Gundersen et al. 2002).”
Sponges and ascidians control removal of particulate organic nitrogen from coral reef water (2005, background): “8 fg N cell21 (Gundersen et al. 2002); for Synechococcus sp.”
Importance of a micro-diet for scleractinian corals (2004, background): “This planktonic contribution can be underestimated if the amount of nitrogen in the picoand nanoplankton is higher, as has recently been suggested (Gundersen et al. 2002, Heldal et al. 2003), but only for 1 or 2 groups of organisms.”
Macroecological limits of heterotrophic bacterial abundance in the ocean (2004, background): “We choose a value of 7.1 fgC cell 1, which is the geometric mean value arising from recent X-ray microanalytical measurements of single cells from natural populations (Gundersen et al., 2002).”
Standing stocks and activity of Archaea and Bacteria in the western Arctic Ocean (2007, methodology): “Biomass was calculated assuming the applicability of either 148 fg C mm23 (Gundersen et al. 2002) or 12.”
Cellular iron contents of plankton during the Southern Ocean Iron Experiment (SOFeX) (2004, unknown): “, C, N, Si, P, Mg, K, Ca) in natural plankton (Norland et al., 1995; Sigee and Holland, 1997; Sigee et al., 1998, 1999; Krivtsov et al., 2000; Gisselson et al., 2001; Gundersen et al., 2002).”
Elemental composition of marine Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus: Implications for the ecological stoichiometry of the sea (2003, background): “However, a recent study of indigenous aquatic bacteria collected in the Sargasso Sea (Gundersen et al. 2002) suggested that the cellular ratios of C : N : P in marine bacteria are close to the Redfield ratio of 106 : 16 : 1, and, if these ratios are representative for bacterioplankton in a wider…”
