Variables Governing Photosynthesis and Growth in Microalgae Mass Cultures (2021, background): “In dense cultures, the irradiance decreases rapidly from the surface, deeper into the culture; thus, cells in deeper layers may actually stay in the dark [18,77].”

Photosynthesis monitoring to optimize growth of microalgal mass cultures: application of chlorophyll fluorescence techniques (2014, background): “Several areas can be conceived in a microalgal culture exposed to solar irradiance (Tredici 2010): (1) the surface layers in which irradiance is supra-saturating and photoinhibition is taking place; (2) the deeper area, in which irradiance is saturating and a high photosynthetic rate is achieved;…”
Macroalgae-Derived Biofuel: A Review of Methods of Energy Extraction from Seaweed Biomass (2014, background): “The potential biomass yield of algae per unit area is also often higher than that of terrestrial plants [5–7] with, for example, brown seaweeds grown “under cultured conditions” having yields of ~13.”
Potential of the micro and macro algae for biofuel production: a brief review. (2013, background): “, 100 times faster than the landbased plants which can double their biomass in less than 1 day, microalgae appear to be an attractive renewable energy source (Tredici 2010).”
High light and carbon dioxide optimize surface productivity in a Twin-Layer biofilm photobioreactor (2015, background): “Under optimal (theoretical) conditions, plants can utilise about 10–12% of the available sunlight for CO2 fixation [12,36], which is comparable to a theoretical maximal biomass productivity of about 1.”
