Application and assessment of multi-wavelength measurements of variable chlorophyll a fluorescence for analysis of irradiance stress, physiological state and community composition in freshwater phytoplankton
Beecraft, Laura (University of Waterloo, 2018-04-24)Phytoplankton are a diverse group of organisms of fundamental importance in aquatic ecosystems. Exposure to high levels of photosynthetically active and ultraviolet radiation (PAR and UVR) is unavoidable for most phytoplankton ... -
Implications of irradiance exposure and non-photochemical quenching for multi-wavelength (bbe FluoroProbe) fluorometry
Harrison, Joel W.; Beecraft, Laura; Smith, Ralph E. H. (Elsevier, 2018-12-01)Multi-wavelength fluorometers, such as the bbe FluoroProbe (FP), measure excitation spectra of chlorophyll a (Chl-a) fluorescence to infer the abundance and composition of phytoplankton communities as well as the concentration ...
