“…This highlights the fact that C:Chla ratio, a parameter often requested in modeling studies and used as a constant (Tsiaras et al, in review), varies in function of both carbon biomass and cellular chlorophyll as well as in function of community composition. Nevertheless, the estimated range of C:Chla in our study is in accordance with values reported from surface oligotrophic waters in the Aegean Sea (Lagaria et al, 2016), the Sargasso Sea (Malone et al, 1993), and the Atlantic Ocean (Marañón, 2005).…”

“…The filter extracts were analyzed using an Agilent 1260 Infinity Binary Pump HPLC system (Agilent Technologies) equipped with a Poroshell 120 column (EC-C18, 150 × 3 mm, 2.7 µm particles; Agilent Technologies). A detailed description of the applied chromatographic conditions is provided in Lagaria et al (2016). The abbreviations of detected pigments and calculated sums of pigments are presented in Table 1.…”

“…F. profunda is a deep dweller and needs a water column of >100 m to thrive in the deep layers. Coastal areas, for example, the oligotrophic Aegean Sea in the NE Mediterranean, where the abundance of coccolithophores relative to total microscopic counts presented 27% in early spring (Lagaria et al, 2017), is bearing F. profunda during the more stratified summer months (max 6.3%; Dimiza et al, 2015) but only where the water column exceeds >100 m (Dimiza et al, 2015). The shallowing of the nutricline stimulates a higher upper photic coccolithophore production than the lower photic F. profunda (Molfino & McIntyre, 1990), and the lower F. profunda percentage corresponds to a high primary productivity in water column (Beaufort et al, 1997).…”

“…The filters were immediately placed in liquid nitrogen and stored at −80°C until analysis in the laboratory. The complete analysis description and the applied chromatographic conditions are provided in Lagaria et al (2017a). Pigment data were further processed with the CHEMTAX software (Mackey et al, 1996) in order to calculate the relative contributions of the different functional phytoplankton groups to the total phytoplankton assemblage (in chlorophyll units).…”

“…The data presented here are from the 2 selected depths (5 m, 75 m) where PNF and HNF grazing experiments were performed. Details on the method can be found in (Lagaria et al, 2017a). Size classes selected here conformed to the generally established microbial size classes (Sieburth et al, 1978) as representative of the functional groups of pico-, snano-and lnano+micro-phytoplankton.…”
