Phytoplankton collected in the Po Delta - North Adriatic Sea in the framework of the Italian Flagship Project RITMARE. 2013-2014Sampling Description
Study Extent
Phytoplankton was collected in the Po Delta - North Adriatic Sea during two in oceanographic cruises in 2013-11 and 2014-11, in the framework of the Italian Flagship Project RITMARE.Sampling
Sampling with Niskin bottles at several discrete depths.Method steps
- Samples were fixed with Ca(HCO3) 2-buffered formaldehyde (0.8% final concentration) and cell abundance and species composition of phytoplankton were estimated according to Utermöhl’s method (1958), using an inverted microscope equipped with phase contrast, at 320-400x final magnifications.
