The authors are grateful to the captain and crew of the B/O Hermano Gines
and the staff of the Estaci on de Investigaciones Marinas de Margarita (Fun-
dacion La Salle de Ciencias Naturales, Punta de Piedras, Isla de Margarita,
Venezuela) for their field assistance in this study. We are indebted to Y. Astor,
A. Modanesi, L. Li, C. Gomes and M.A. Rizzo for O

data, laboratory as-
sistance, acetate turnover measurements, flagellate enumeration and for ciliate
enumeration, respectively. This research has been supported since 1994 by a
series of U.S. NSF grants to M.I.S. ,G.T.T and F. M-K. and by Proyecto Cariaco
grant from FONACIT (Fondo Nacional de Ciencia, Tecnologia e Innovacion)
#96280221 and #2000001702 (to R. Varela et al.). Marine Sciences Research
Center contribution no. 1300.
