  1. Paradox of the plankton

    In Aquatic ecosystem aquatic biology , the paradox of the plankton is the name given to the situation where a limited range of resources light , nutrient s supports a much wider range of plankton ic organism s. The paradox stems from a result of the competitive exclusion principle sometimes referred to as Georgii Gause Gause s Law , which suggests that when two species Competition biology compete for the same resource, ultimately only one will persist and the other will be driven to extinct ion. The high biodiversity diversity of phytoplankton at all Phylogenetics phylogenetic levels stands in contrast to the limited range of resources for which they compete with one another e.g. light, nitrate , phosphate , silicic acid , iron . The paradox was originally described by the limnology limnologist G. Evelyn Hutchinson , who proposed that factors such as water column vertical gradients of light or turbulence symbiosis or commensalism differential predation or constantly changing environmental conditions may resolve the paradox. ref Hutchinson, G.

    The Continuous Plankton Recorder CPR survey is one of the longest running marine biology marine biological monitoring programmes in the world. Started in 1931 by Sir Alister Hardy , the CPR has provided marine scientists with their only measure of plankton communities on a pan oceanic scale. Today the CPR survey is operated by the Sir Alister Hardy Foundation for Ocean Science SAHFOS , located in Plymouth , UK. Uniquely, the CPR survey s methods of sampling and plankton analysis remain unchanged since 1948, providing a spatio temporally comprehensive 60 year record of marine plankton dynamics. Sampling and analysis The CPR is a plankton sampling instrument designed to be towed from merchant ships , or ships of opportunity, on their normal sailings.
