The influence of phytoplankton pigments composition and dominant cell size on fluorescence-derived photophysiological parameters and implications for primary production rates

Phytoplankton chlorophyll-a fluorescence, measured in situ, can be applied as a tool to estimate primary production in the ocean over a large range of temporal and spatial scales. This non-invasive technique allows for fast assessments of photo-physiological parameters in contrast to the traditi...
