Picoeukaryote distribution in relation to nitrate uptake in the oceanic nitracline

We investigated the relationship between picoeukaryote phytoplankton (<2 ?m) and the deep layer of new production (NO3- uptake) in the nitracline of the eastern subtropical North Atlantic Ocean. Indices of NO3- uptake kinetics obtained within the lower 15% of the euphotic zone demonstrate that su...
