Spectrally weighted transparency in models of water-column photosynthesis and photoinhibition by ultraviolet radiation
(2004)
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 ...
Optical detection and assessment of algal blooms
(1997-07)
Concerns about harmful algal blooms (HABs) have grown in recent years. There is a pressing need for robust, quantitative, and cost-effective methods to detect and characterize algal blooms. Critical applications of these ...
Modeling the effects of ultraviolet radiation on embryos of Calanus finmarchicus and Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) in a mixing environment
(2000-12)
It is well established that ultraviolet radiation (UVR, 280-400 nm) harms aquatic organisms. Reductions in productivity have been reported for phytoplankton, ichthyoplankton, and zooplankton in incubations exposed to UVR. ...
