The distribution and abundance of chroococcoid cyanobacteria

Abstract: The abundance of phycoerythrin-containing chroococcoid cyano-bacteria in the surface waters between Australia and Antarctica were determined by counts of yellow autofluorescing cells on four transects of the Southern Ocean in the 1985/86 austral summer and by analysis of the pigment zeaxan...
