BIOVOLUME CALCULATION FOR PELAGIC AND BENTHIC MICROALGAE

Helmut Hillebrand, Claus‐Dieter Dürselen, David B. Kirschtel et al. · 1 Apr 1999

Microalgal biovolume is commonly calculated to assess the relative abundance (as biomass or carbon) of co‐occurring algae varying in shape and/or size.

ABSTRACT The variability of marine diatom Si:C and Si:N composition ratios was examined to assess their utility as ecological conversion factors. Twenty‐seven diatom species grown under an 18:6 h LD cycle and sampled at the end of the light period gave mean ratios, by atoms, of 0.13 ± 0.04 and 1.12 ± 0.33 for Si:C…
