Effects of Hydrostatic Pressure on Photosynthesis and Growth of Unicellular Marine Algae and Diatoms

Abstract

Light-dependent oxygen production and growth of algal cultures were measured at 25C at various light intensities and hydrostatic pressures. A device which maintains a desired concentration of dissolved oxygen during growth and oxygen evolution by photosynthetic organisms is described. The system uses a modified rate-measuring oxygen electrode system in conjunction with an oxygen concentration monitoring unit.
