• Coupled changes in the cell morphology and elemental (C, N, and Si) composition of the pennate diatom Pseudo‐nitzschia due to iron deficiency (2007, methodology): “Using SXRF microscopy, during the Southern Ocean Iron Experiment (SOFeX), Twining et al. (2004) measured a 32% and 42% decrease in Si : S and Si : P ratios, respectively, after two additions of iron.”
• The fate of biogenic iron during a phytoplankton bloom induced by natural fertilisation: Impact of copepod grazing (2008, background): “They were also consistent with values observed during the SOIREE experiment for > 5-µm eukaryotic phytoplankton (3 µmol/mol, Bowie et al., 2001) or for diatoms during the SOFeX experiments at the unfertilized stations (6 µmol/mol, Twining et al., 2004).”
• Co-limitation of diatoms by iron and silicic acid in the equatorial Pacific (2011, background): “However, there are also examples that show no change in diatom Si quotas in response to Fe (Takeda, 1998; De La Rocha et al., 2000; Twining et al., 2004; Marchetti and Harrison, 2007; Marchetti and Cassar, 2009).”
• Cellular iron contents of plankton during the Southern Ocean Iron Experiment (SOFeX) (2004, background): “Lower Fe:P ratios in cells without Chl a were not matched by lower Fe:C or Fe:S ratios, so the effect is explained by the higher (33–45%) P:C ratios of non-plastidic cells (Twining et al., 2004).”
• Different reactions of Southern Ocean phytoplankton size classes to iron fertilization (2006, background): “It is also known that the elemental composition of phytoplankton is variable, depending on the availability of macronutrients (Geider and La Roche 2002) and trace metals, such as iron (de Baar et al. 1997; Timmermans et al. 2004; Twining et al. 2004).”
