| We examined phytoplankton community responses to natural iron fertilisation at 32 sites over and downstream from the Kerguelen Plateau in the Southern Ocean during the austral spring bloom in October-November 2011. The community structure was estimated from chemical and isotopic measurements (particulate organic carbon - POC; C-13-POC; particulate nitrogen -PN; N-15-PN; and biogenic silica - BSi) on size-fractionated samples from surface waters (300, 210, 50, 20, 5, and 1 mu m fractions). Higher values of C-13-POC (vs. co-located C-13 values for dissolved inorganic carbon -DIC) were taken as indicative of faster growth rates and higher values of N-15-PN (vs. co-located N-15-NO3 source values) as indicative of greater nitrate use (rather than ammonium use,... |
