GAP workshops bring together a diverse group of scientists interested in many aspects of aquatic primary productivity and the programmes are designed to promote the sharing of expertise through joint experimental work. This time the Workshop theme was the daily growth cycle of phototrophic micro-organisms, and incorporated different aspects of growth - increase in algal biomass, specific cell components and in cell numbers.
