Description

The volume evaluates the ecological role of protozoa in the sea. The major points of discussion are the role of protozoa in the microbial food web, in the cycling of carbon and nitrogen and the extent to which this web acts as a link or sink to metazoa in the water column. This text covers the following topics: taxonomy; methods; pollution; symbiosis; autecology; trophic behaviour; community grazing; energetics and production; marine "snow" and "fluff"; mineral flux; nutrient cycling; modelling. This book of proceedings on marine biology, microbial ecology is intended for scientists.
