Experimental results: Bloom in Bottle (BIB) experiments: culture studies of the effect of Si and N stress on diatoms of the Santa Barbara Channel (SBDOM project, SBC LTER)

Abstract

Culture studies of diatoms that dominate spring blooms in the Santa Barbara Channel were used to examine the effects of N and Si stress on the magnitude of production and the chemical composition of DOM. Species cultured were: Skeletonema costatum (CCMP 1332), Chaetoceros socialis (CCMP 172), Thalassiosira weissflogii (CCMP 1051), and Odontella aurita (CCMP 595).
