Magnitude and variability of benthic and pelagic metabolism in a temperate coastal lagoon (2001, methodology): “We used our measured values for macroalgal C:N, the Redfield C:N ratio of 6.6 for the water column, and a C:N ratio of 9, reported by Sundbäck et al. (2000) for the benthic microalgal communities in similar shallow-water sediments.”
Factors affecting microphytobenthic biomass, species composition and production in the Colne Estuary (UK) (2002, background): “Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, p 334–351 Sundbäck K, Miles A (2000) Balance between denitrification and microalgal incorporation of nitrogen in microtidal sediments, NE Kattegat.”
Importance of benthic nutrient regeneration during initiation of macroalgal blooms in shallow bays (2003, methodology): “Enhanced microphytobenthic activity is generally considered to depress denitrification through competition during low-N situations and in N-limited ecosystems (Rysgaard et al. 1995, Sundbäck et al. 2000).”
Benthic primary production and nutrient cycling in sediments with benthic microalgae and transient accumulation of macroalgae (2003, background): “This implies a very tight coupling of mineralization and assimilation in microphytobenthic communities where the nitrogen demand is high (Sundbäck et al. 2000).”
