Particulate elemental ratios (C:N, N:P and C:Chl a) of seston in hypersaline (70–90 g kg−1) Mono Lake, California, were examined over an 11-year period (1990–2000) which included the onset and persistence of a 5-year period of persistent chemical stratification. Following the onset of meromixis in mid-1995, phytoplankton and dissolved inorganic nitrogen were substantially reduced with the absence of a winter period of holomixis. C:N, N:P and C:Chl a ratios ranged from 5 to 18 mol mol−1, 2 to 19… CONTINUE READING
