Does the settling column method underestimate phytoplankton sinking speeds?
Phytoplankton sinking is a major component of vertical ocean carbon and nutrient fluxes, and sinking is an integral component of phytoplankton biology and ecology. Much of our understanding of phytoplankton sinking derives from the settling column method (SETCOL) in which sinking speeds are calculat...
