- Contribution of picoplankton to the total particulate organic carbon concentration in the eastern South Pacific (2007, background): “For instance, althoughcp seems to be a better estimate of phytoplankton biomass than Tchla in Case I waters (Behrenfeld and Boss, 2003) and within the mixed layer of the eastern Equatorial Pacific (Behrenfeld and Boss, 2006), chlorophyll concentration would work better in subtropical stratified wate”
- Abandoning Sverdrup's Critical Depth Hypothesis on phytoplankton blooms. (2010, background): “However, Cphyt is insensitive to physiological variability and appears to track phytoplankton biomass in the few studies conducted to date (Behrenfeld and Boss 2003, 2006, Behrenfeld et al. 2005, Siegel et al. 2005, Huot et al. 2007, Westberry et al. 2008, Dall’Olmo et al. 2009).”
- Glider surveillance of physics and biology in the southern California Current System (2008, background): “…by fitting the function exp(kdZ) to the covariance estimates, neglecting any vertical variation of kd. Beam attenuation coefficient and chlorophyll fluorescence are often strongly correlated in the ocean (e.g., Behrenfeld and Boss 2006): light attenuates more rapidly in high-chlorophyll water.”
- Space‐based lidar measurements of global ocean carbon stocks (2013, background): “…in suspended particle loads directly impacts light scattering properties in the surface ocean, allowing optically based assessments of POC [e.g., Loisel et al ., 2001; Stramski et al ., 2008; Cetini ć et al ., 2012] and C phyto [ Behrenfeld and Boss , 2003, 2006; Behrenfeld et al ., 2005].”
