Bacterial growth control in marine environments : from experimental approaches to comparative analyses
Cuevas, Luis Antonio (Doctoral thesis, 2010-12-14)To understand (1) the role of heterotrophic bacteria in the biogeochemical cycles, (2) the fate of the organic carbon and mineral nutrients, and (3) the flow of energy to higher trophic levels, we need to understand how ... -
Bacterial growth response to copepod grazing in aquatic ecosystems
Vargas, Cristian A.; Cuevas, Luis Antonio; González, Humberto E.; Daneri, Giovanni (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2007)The growth rate response of bacterial communities to the potential increase of dissolved organic matter (DOM) produced by the copepod Acartia tonsa was assessed in experiments conducted in three stations representing three ... -
Nutrient pathways through the microbial food web: principles and predictability discussed, based on five different experiments
Thingstad, Tron Frede; Cuevas, Luis Antonio (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-11-11)Although explanatory and predictive powers are 2 closely interconnected aspects of conceptual and mathematical models of complex systems, the two are not equivalent. The 2 aspects are discussed here for the microbial part ... -
Organic carbon and mineral nutrient limitation of oxygen consumption, bacterial growth and efficiency in the Norwegian Sea
Cuevas, Luis Antonio; Egge, Jorun Karin; Thingstad, Tron Frede; Töpper, Birte (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-01-12)To evaluate the role of bacteria in the transformation of organic matter in subarctic waters, we investigated the effect of mineral nutrients (ammonia and phosphate) and organic carbon (glucose) enrichment on heterotrophic ...
