Ammonium (NH4+) release by bacterial remineralization and heterotrophic grazers is the largest recycled nitrogen source in the euphotic zone. It determines the regenerated fraction of phytoplankton productivity, so the measurement of NH4+ excretion in

Respiratory metabolism in Leptomysis lingvura (G.O. Sars, 1866) Mysidacea (mysids) are small crustaceans found in many coastal regions of the world. The mysid, Leptomysis lingvura, lives along the coast of Gran Canaria Island (Spain) on sandy substrate

The mysid, Leptomysis lingvura, is found along east coast of Gran Canaria (Spain) swimming in the plankton above sandy bottoms at depths between 5 and 15 m. As with many mysids around the world, it is an important component in the food chain for many
