  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;The size-dependent relationship between&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;in vivo&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;fluorescence (IVF) and chlorophyll&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;a&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;was determined for monthly phytoplankton samples from the San Francisco Bay estuary. Chlorophyll&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;a&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;and IVF were both measured on netplankton (&amp;gt;22 &amp;mu;m), nanoplankton (5&amp;ndash;22 &amp;mu;m), and ultraplankton (&amp;lt;5 &amp;mu;m) samples that were separated with screens. IVF and chlorophyll&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;a&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;were linearly related for each size class, but the IVF per unit chlorophyll&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;a&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;(R) was significantly different between these three size classes. The ultraplankton R was twice that of the nanoplankton which was in turn twice the netplankton R. Hence, accurate size fractionation of phytoplankton biomass from measures of IVF requires correction for size-dependent variations in R.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
