Importance
• Phytoplankton photosynthesis is a fundamental process because of its role in trophic webs, and biogeochemical cycles in the ocean.
• A practical way of obtaining instantaneous and synoptic estimation of phytoplankton biomass is through the use of remote-sensing techniques.
• Satellite estimation of chlorophyll is based on the optical properties of phytoplankton.
• The structure and physiology of the photosynthetic apparatus regulate the optical characteristics of phytoplankton, and determine its photosynthetic capacity.
