Efficiency of a phytoplankton‐based and a bacterial‐based food web in a pelagic marine system (2007, background): “The average primary productivity of 18 mg C L21 d21 and bacterial productivity of 5 mg C L21 d21 is representative for the season and the area (Andersson et al. 1994; Johansson et al. 2004).”
The role of ciliates, heterotrophic dinoflagellates and copepods in structuring spring plankton communities at Helgoland Roads, North Sea (2011, background): “However, it is reported that they can feed on prey items sometimes larger than themselves (Smetacek 1981; Kahl 1932; Gifford 1985; Johansson et al. 2004).”
Microbial processes in a high-latitude fjord (Kongsfjorden, Svalbard): II. Ciliates and dinoflagellates (2011, background): “Sparse accounts of dinoflagellates have been provided in the phytoplankton literature of the fjord (Hasle and Heimdal 1998; Keck et al. 1999; Wiktor 1999; Okolodkov et al. 2000; Wiktor and Wojciechowska 2005), while no reports exist on the ciliate assemblage in Kongsfjorden, to the best of our…”
Phytoplankton vertical distributions and composition in Baltic Sea cyanobacterial blooms (2007, background): “The bloom co-occurs with a rapid build up of heterotrophic biomass (Johansson et al., 2004) and fish biomass (Hjerne and Hansson, 2002) that result in increased grazing pressure and nutrient sequestering (e.g. Hjerne and Hansson, 2002).”
