| Abstract |
Chronic, low-level additions of No. 2 fuel oil were made to three of nine experimental tanks (mean concentration, 180 ppb; range, approximately 60 to 350 ppb) at the Marine Ecosystems Research Laboratory. Laboratory experiments indicated that the dominant phytoplankton species were relatively insensitive to oil at these concentrations but the phytoplankton populations in the ecosystems receiving oil showed a marked increase in biomass and radically different species composition. |
