Laminaria saccharina photosynthesis measured in situ: photoinhibition and xanthophyll cycle during a tidal cycle (2003, methodology): “A recently developed submersible PAM fluorometer (Diving PAM, Walz) has been used to study in situ photosynthesis in seagrass (Ralph et al. 1998, Beer & Björk 2000), sponges (Beer & Ilan 1998) and corals (Beer et al. 1998, Jones & HoeghGuldberg 2001), but not in seaweeds.”
Influence of temperature on the relationship between oxygen- and fluorescence-based estimates of photosynthetic parameters in a marine benthic diatom (Cylindrotheca closterium) (2003, background): “…have been compared in a number of phytoplankton species (Flameling & Kromkamp 1998, Masojídek et al. 2001 & references therein), MPB (Hartig et al. 1998, Barranguet & Kromkamp 2000, Perkins et al. 2001, 2002) macroalgae (Beer et al. 2000, Franklin & Badger 2001) and seagrasses (Beer & Björk 2000).”
Effects of a simulated heat wave on photophysiology and gene expression of high- and low-latitude populations of Zostera marina (2011, methodology): “…multiplied by the appropriate PAR value of that step, 0.5 (assuming that both photosystems absorbed equal amounts of 86 Winters et al.: Heat waves and Zostera marina in Europe incoming photons; Beer & Björk 2000) and the AF, resulting in the electron transfer rate (ETR, µmol electrons m–2 s–1).”
Daily variation patterns in seagrass photosynthesis along a vertical gradient (2003, methodology): “In situ measurements of chlorophyll fluorescence in seagrasses were made possible after the development of a submersible PAM fluorometer (Beer et al. 1998, Ralph et al. 1998, Björk et al. 1999, Beer & Björk 2000, Schwarz et al. 2000, Seddon & Cheshire 2001, Durako & Kunzelman 2002).”
Limitations in the use of PAM fluorometry for measuring photosynthetic rates of macroalgae at high irradiances (2004, background): “These include plants that plausibly lack explicit CO2 concentrating mechanisms (e.g. some seagrasses, Beer et al., 1998; Beer & Bjork 2000 and, in this study, low-irradiance grown Ulva lactuca, Laminaria saccharina and, to some extent, Palmaria palmata).”
Photosynthetic performance of surface-associated algae below sea ice as measured with a pulse amplitude-modulated (PAM) fluorometer and O2 microsensors (2001, methodology): “The DivingPAM has mostly been used for in situ studies of seagrasses (Ralph et al. 1998, Beer & Björk 2000), corals and other symbioses in reef communities (Beer et al. 1998, Ralph et al. 1999).”
The Use of the Fluorescence Signal in Studies of Seagrasses and Macroalgae (2010, background): “In general, the linearity between ETR and GPS has been only confirmed at low light intensities (e.g., Beer et al. 1998; Beer and Björk 2000; Longstaff et al. 2002; Cabello-Pasini and Figueroa 2005; ColomboPallota et al. 2006; Enríquez and Rodríguez-Román 2006).”
A COMPARISON OF PHOTOSYNTHETIC ELECTRON TRANSPORT RATES IN MACROALGAE MEASURED BY PULSE AMPLITUDE MODULATED CHLOROPHYLL FLUOROMETRY AND MASS SPECTROMETRY (2001, methodology): “At moderate irradiance, ETR calculated from PSII closely matches gross O 2 evolution (net - dark respiration measured after each light level) in the chlorophyte macroalgae Ulva lactuca and U. fasciata (Beer et al. 2000).”
Photosynthetic characteristics of Thalassia testudinum measured in situ by pulse-amplitude modulated (PAM) fluorometry: methodological and scale-based considerations (2002, methodology): “Both 5- and 10-min dark-acclimation periods have been used for seagrasses (Ralph et al., 1998; Ralph, 1999; Beer and Bjork, 2000 ).”
