Phytoplankton chlorophyll-a, growth and loss rates. High-frequency chlorophyll-a data, uncorrected for Non Photochemical Quenching (NPQ) (a, b), daily average chlorophyll-a data corrected for the NPQ(c, d), phytoplankton growth rate (µ, e, f), loss rate (l, g, h), and µ:l ratio (i, j) in the control (black) and warmed (orange) treatments. Error bars represent range of observation for the two mesocosms per treatment in spring and the standard deviation for the three mesocosms per treatment in fall. In the spring experiment, µ and l could not be estimated on d1 and d12 and, for the latter, the missing data are represented as dotted lines.
