Quantifying Per-Cell Chlorophyll a in Natural Picophytoplankton Populations Using Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting
Marine phytoplankton play a central role in global biogeochemical cycling, carbon export, and the overall functioning of marine ecosystems. While chlorophyll a (Chl a) is widely used as a proxy for phytoplankton biomass, identifying the proportion of Chl a attributable to different phytoplankton gro...
