Figure 3. Aureococcus anophagefferens response in microcosm study.

Variation in cell density of Aureococcus anophagefferens (A), in vivo chlorophyll fluorescence (B), and total chlorophyll a (C) in microcosms with 1.6 mg L⁻¹ of H₂O₂ addition (treatment, dashed line) and without H₂O₂ addition (control, solid line). The microcosms were made of unfiltered (square symbols) and 5 μm filtered (triangle symbols) Barnegat Bay seawater amended with laboratory A. anophagefferens cultures. Vertical error bars represent standard deviations of triplicate microcosms.
