Resumo |
The dataset was obtained on samples taken from 6 stations in the Dardanelles Straits, Marmara Sea and Bosporus Straits. These experiments were set up according to DoW of SESAME project. Ciliate abundance: Borax-buffered formalin (final concentration 2% formaldehyde). Samples for ciliate counting were stored at 4°C in the dark until observation. For ciliate identification and enumeration, 100 ml samples were left for 24 h in sedimentation cylinders and then observed under an inverted epifluorescence microscope. Ciliate biomass: Ciliate cell sizes were measured and converted into cell volumes using appropriate geometric formulae (Peuto-Moreau 1991). For biomass estimation, the conversion factor 140 fgC µm**3 was used (Putt and Stoecker (1989), doi:10.4319/lo.1989.34.6.1097)). |
