For the determination of prokaryotic cell numbers, 1 cm³ sediment was fixed with sterile filtered formalin/seawater at a final concentration of 2% and stored at 4°C until further analyses in the home laboratory. Samples were filtered on 0.2 µm polycarbonate filters, stained with acridine orange (Mey...
