Studies in high nutrient, low chlorophyll (HNLC) regions have demonstrated that increased Fe availability results in an increase in phytoplankton biomass and changes in community composition. Here we present experiments in which the availability of iron (Fe) was increased or reduced to monitor the response of individual groups of phytoplankton (large eukaryotes, picoeukaryotes and cyanobacteria) by flow cytometry, Additions (0.5 to 5.0 nM Fe) and reductions in available Fe (through addition of 1 to 10 nM of the fungal siderophore desferrioxamine B) were made to enclosed communities from the South American eastern boundary current off Peru, where ambient dissolved Fe concentrations were
