Research Projects
Flow Cytometry in Marine Science
Brief overview of my use of flow cytometry in phytoplankton
ecology and ecophysiology, instrumentation, and flow cytometry applications
aboard ship.
DNA Cell Cycle Analysis in Marine Phytoplankton
Background information and application of flow cytometry to assess the cell cycle
and cell division in marine phytoplankton.
Cytometric Quantification of Algal Nitrate Reductase
Report on first flow cytometric relative quantification of the enzyme nitrate
reductase in the marine, bloom-forming diatom Skeletonema costatum in
dependence of nutrient regime and bloom initiation (Download of PDF reprint).
Phytoplankton Ecophysiology
Dark survival of phytoplankton; novel growth form of marine silicoflagellate
caused by changes in watershed eutrophication.
Microbial Ecology in the Gulf of Mexico
Microbial growth and grazing rates, bacterioplankton abundance and high/low DNA
bacteria types, microbial nitrogen cycling, Mississippi River plume effects
on Louisiana shelf ecology.
Review: Probing the Physiological State of Phytoplankton at the
Single Cell Level
Review publication on the potentials of flow cytometry to unravel
phytoplankton ecophysiology (Scientia Marina 64; 2000.).
