“…The Chl.a values were similar to those measured in EMS offshore waters Ignatiades et al, 2009;Rahav et al, 2013), to those in coastal waters off Crete (Psarra et al, 2000;Pitta et al, 2016;Tsiola et al, 2016), and off Israel (Kress et al, 2005;Raveh et al, 2015). PP was somewhat higher than offshore waters and somewhat lower than observations off the Israeli coastal waters recorded at the same season.…”

“…The most important nutrient elements controlling primary productivity in the Eastern Mediterranean are phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N). Previous studies have demonstrated that the system is P limited in winter during the annual phytoplankton bloom (Krom et al, 1991) and N&P co-limited for phytoplankton during the spring/summer Zohary et al, 2005;Pitta et al, 2016;Rahav et al, 2016;Tsiola et al, 2016). All of the inorganic N supplied from the atmosphere is bioavailable, since it is present as water-soluble ammonium or nitrate.…”

“…In fact, some of the added trace metals, such as Fe or Zn, are key cofactors for many enzymatic reactions in the marine environment, including photosynthesis and N 2 fixation (Falkowski, 1997;Sohm et al, 2011), and may contribute to enhancing production. Table 3, Table S1), which may relieve nutrient stress for autotrophic and heterotrophic microbial biomass and activity in the surface SEMS (i.e., Kress et al, 2005;Zohary et al, 2005;Pitta et al, 2016) (Table 3), which constitutes ∼50 and 5-10% of the nutrient concentration typically reported for this system during summer, respectively (Kress et al, 2014;Raveh et al, 2015). Due to the extremely oligotrophic nature of the SEMS, any amendment might prove to be important and may alter microbial dynamics via the release of scarce, key-limiting nutrients.…”

“…Due to the extremely oligotrophic nature of the SEMS, any amendment might prove to be important and may alter microbial dynamics via the release of scarce, key-limiting nutrients. For example, several authors showed that inorganic nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) may enhance algae biomass and growth rates in the SEMS water (Kress et al, 2005;Lagaria et al, 2011;Pitta et al, 2016), whereas P Zohary et al, 2005) or dissolved organic a Leaching experiments were performed as described in Chen et al (2006Chen et al ( , 2007. b Assuming a 1.05 mg L −1 dust deposition in the upper mixed layer (5 m).…”

“…The response of bacteria to P-addition in the Eastern Mediterranean has been seen during a Lagrangian experiment (Krom et al, 2005b;Pitta et al, 2005;Thingstad et al, 2005) and verified during a mesocosm experiment . On the other hand, the increase in the autotrophic production and biomass may be attributed to the simultaneous addition of N and P through the added dust since phytoplankton has been found to be N and P-co-limited in the area Pitta et al, 2016).…”
