Concentration of the major heterotrophic groups in the four mesocosm treatments (M1-M4):
Heterotrophic flagellates, Protoperidinium spp., Gyrodinium spirale, and ciliates in the four Note that the values of heterotrophic flagellates and Protoperidinium spp. correspond to microscopic counts for the replicate A of each mesocosm treatment. Abundance of Gyrodinium spirale and ciliates are averages of both replicates (A, B) of each treatment assessed by the FlowCam. Error bars indicate SD.
