  • Relationships between vertical mixing and photoadaptation of phytoplankton: Similarity criteria 

    Lewis, M. R., J. J. Cullen, and T. Platt. 1984. "Relationships between vertical mixing and photoadaptation of phytoplankton: Similarity criteria." Marine ecology progress series.Oldendorf 15(1-2): 141-149.
    In their natural environment phytoplankton are exposed to fluctuations in incident irradiance due to vertical displacements in the water column induced by turbulent fluid motion. A reaction-diffusion model is analyzed to ...
  • Retrieval of phytoplankton biomass from simultaneous inversion of reflectance, the diffuse attenuation coefficient, and Sun-induced fluorescence in coastal waters 

    Huot, Yannick, Catherine A. Brown, and John J. Cullen. 2007. "Retrieval of phytoplankton biomass from simultaneous inversion of reflectance, the diffuse attenuation coefficient, and Sun-induced fluorescence in coastal waters." Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans 112(C6): 06013-C06013. DOI:10.1029/2006JC003794
    [1] A model has been developed to retrieve phytoplankton absorption, a proxy for phytoplankton biomass, from observations of reflectance ( R) and the diffuse attenuation coefficient (K-d) collected by moored radiometers ...
  • A semi-analytical model of the influence of phytoplankton community structure on the relationship between light attenuation and ocean color 

    Ciotti, AM, JJ Cullen, and MR Lewis. 1999. "A semi-analytical model of the influence of phytoplankton community structure on the relationship between light attenuation and ocean color." Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans 104(C1): 1559-1578. DOI:10.1029/1998JC900021
    A model was developed to examine the influence of phytoplankton community structure on the relationship between diffuse attenuation and ratios of upwelling radiance. Shifts in phytoplankton communities were represented by ...
  • The spectral effects of clouds on solar irradiance 

    Bartlett, JS, AM Ciotti, RF Davis, and JJ Cullen. 1998. "The spectral effects of clouds on solar irradiance." Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans 103(C13): 31017-31031. DOI:10.1029/1998JC900002
    Knowledge of the spectral attenuation associated with clouds is important for accurate estimates of natural irradiance at the Earth's surface. We compare spectral measurements of visible downwelling irradiance, under varying ...
  • Spectrally weighted transparency in models of water-column photosynthesis and photoinhibition by ultraviolet radiation 

    Lehmann, Moritz K., Richard F. Davis, Yannick Huot, and John J. Cullen. 2004. "Spectrally weighted transparency in models of water-column photosynthesis and photoinhibition by ultraviolet radiation." Marine Ecology Progress Series 269: 101-110. doi:10.3354/meps269101
    We present a simple method for describing the influence of variable attenuation of spectral irradiance, Kd(lambda), on water-column photosynthesis and its inhibition by ultraviolet radiation (UV). The approach is based on ...

  • Vertical migration, nutrition and toxicity in the dinoflagellate Alexandrium tamarense 

    Macintyre, J. Geoff, John J. Cullen, and Allan D. Cembella. 1997. "Vertical migration, nutrition and toxicity in the dinoflagellate Alexandrium tamarense." Marine Ecology Progress Series 148(1-3): 201-216. doi:10.3354/meps148201
    The effect of nitrate-N availability on paralytic shellfish toxin production by the dinoflagellate Alexandrium tamarense was studied in a vertically stratified laboratory water column (tank) where swimming behavior could ...
