| Linear measurements of 31 Southern Ocean diatom species or genus groupings are presented and used in the derivation of species-specific biovolume, biomass and surface to volume ratios. Species measurements are in tune with summarised values in the literature and range from 2.6 to 2296 pm in length and 8.5 to 140 pm in diameter. Average cell volume ranged from 63 to 1.43 x 105 mu m(3) and biomass from 10 to 3686 pg C cell(-1), the values being smallest in pennate shaped species and greatest in cylindrical centrics. The 31 species can be divided into 7 small, 12 intermediate and 12 large biomass contributors based on their cell volume and/or their surface to volume ratio. Carbon biomass estimates from biovolume equations are discussed and suggest that future... |

| Biological dinitrogen (N2) fixation provides the major source of new nitrogen (N) to the open ocean, contributing more than atmospheric and riverine inputs to the N supply. Yet the fate of the diazotroph-derived N (DDN) in the planktonic food web is poorly understood due to technical limitations. The main goals of this study were to (i) quantify how much of DDN is released to the dissolved pool during N2 fixation and how much is transferred to bacteria, phytoplankton and zooplankton, (ii) to compare the DDN release and transfer efficiencies under contrasting N2 fixation activity and diversity the oligotrophic waters of the Western Tropical South Pacific (WTSP) Ocean. We used nanometer scale secondary ion mass spectrometry (nanoSIMS) coupled with 15N2... |

| In the framework of the VAHINE project, we investigated the spectral characteristics and the variability of dissolved and particulate chromophoric materials throughout a 23-day mesocosm experiment conducted in the south-west Pacific at the mouth of the New Caledonian coral lagoon (22 degrees 29.073 S-166 degrees 26.905 E) from 13 January to 4 February 2013. Samples were collected in a mesocosm fertilized with phosphate at depths of 1, 6 and 12m and in the surrounding waters. Light absorption coefficients of chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) [a(g) (lambda)] and particulate matter [a(p) (lambda)] were determined using a point-source integrating-cavity absorption meter (PSICAM), while fluorescent DOM (FDOM) components were determined from... |
