• Phosphate availability and the ultimate control of new nitrogen input by nitrogen fixation in the tropical Pacific Ocean (2007, background): “…it has the potential to identify variations in P availability even when DIP concentrations become analytically undetectable (Moutin et al., 2002; Moutin et al., 2005). www.biogeosciences.net/5/95/2008/ Biogeosciences, 5, 95–109, 2008 DIP turnover times represent the ratio between DIP…”
• Nitrogen fixation in the western equatorial Pacific: Rates, diazotrophic cyanobacterial size class distribution, and biogeochemical significance (2009, background): “Because diazotrophs are able to grow in nitrogen-depleted environments, other macronutrients and micronutrients such as phosphorus [e.g., San˜udo-Wilhelmy et al., 2001; Moutin et al., 2005; Sohm et al., 2008] or iron [Raven, 1988; Kustka et al., 2003] have been suggested to control this process.”
• Elevated CO2 enhances nitrogen fixation and growth in the marine cyanobacterium Trichodesmium (2007, background): “Natural Trichodesmium populations mostly inhabit oceanic areas where light is not limiting, although in certain regions P and Fe availability appear to control Trichodesmium populations (Sanudo-Wilhelmy et al., 2001; Mills et al., 2004; Moutin et al., 2005; White et al., 2006).”
• CO2 control of Trichodesmium N2 fixation, photosynthesis, growth rates, and elemental ratios: Implications for past, present, and future ocean biogeochemistry (2007, background): “This finding has major implications, because limitation of Trichodesmium growth and N2 fixation by P, Fe, or light appears to be widespread (Fu et al. 2005a; Moutin et al. 2005; Mulholland and Bernhardt 2005).”
