Journal Article
Silsbe, G. M., Oxborough, K., Suggett, D. J., Forster, R. M., Ihnken, S., Komárek, O., Lawrenz, E., Prášil, O., Röttgers, R., Šicner, M., Simis, S. G., Van Dijk, M. A., & Kromkamp, J. C. (2015). Toward autonomous measurements of photosynthetic electron transport rates: an evaluation of active fluorescence-based measurements of photochemistry. Limnology and oceanography, methods ASLO, 13(3), 138-155. https://doi.org/10.1002/lom3.10014

This study presents a methods evaluation and intercalibration of active fluorescence-based measurements of the quantum yield (ϕʹ 0 PSII) and absorption coefficient (aPSII) of photosystem II (PSII) photochemistry. Measurements of ϕʹ PSII , aPSII, and...

Decrease in water clarity of the southern and central North Sea during the 20th century (2015)
Journal Article
Capuzzo, E., Stephens, D., Silva, T., Barry, J., & Forster, R. M. (2015). Decrease in water clarity of the southern and central North Sea during the 20th century. Global change biology, 21(6), 2206-2214. https://doi.org/10.1111/gcb.12854

Light in the marine environment is a key environmental variable coupling physics to marine biogeochemistry and ecology. Weak light penetration reduces light available for photosynthesis, changing energy fluxes through the marine food web. Based on pu...
