Monitoring of respiratory and organic losses from carbon assimilation for the diatomThalassiosira pseudonanashows very slight (about 5%) total carbon losses in continuous culture. Although correlation between batch and continuous culture cellular chemistry was less than ideal, batch culture exponential phase cells showed carbon metabolism similar to that for the continuous culture. In both cases, growth rates were in excess of 1.5 divisions d−1and total carbon losses in the batch exponential phase were similar (<10%) to those in the continuous culture. Estimates of growth rates from C-14 uptake and particulate carbon matched those from changes in cell numbers in the batch culture and that from the dilution rate in the continuous culture. In batch culture, immediately after starting the culture and in stationary phase, carbon losses from respiration, organic excretion, and cellular degradation were large (>50%). To understand phytoplankton physiology in nature, it is necessary to find what effects growth rate and population density have on carbon losses and to ascertain whether or not steady state conditions really pertain to the ocean.
