T he measurement of primary production in the ocean is key to our estimates of ecosystem function and the role of the ocean and its biota in the planetary carbon (C) cycle. Accurate estimates are critical to a broad suite ofbiological questions across a wide range of space and time scales. The methods developed to measure primary production reflect the diversity of our research interests and en...

Background: In recent years, silver nanoparticles due to their antimicrobial properties, have formed about 56% of nanoparticles global production. Since the released nanoparticles ultimately enter water ecosystems, their maximum toxic effects are magnified in aquatic ecosystems. The aim of this study is to show how salinity can decrease the toxic effects of silver nanoparticles on exposed rai...
