Redefinition of cell size classification of phytoplankton – a potential tool for improving the quality and assurance of data interpretation
To date, phytoplankton cell size classification is based on linear metrics (nano: 2-20 μm; micro: 20-200 μm; macro: >200 μm) although three-dimensional metrics are used for cell or body size descriptions of all terrestrial and aquatic organisms. This study proposes a redefinition of phytoplankton...
