Abstract
The applications, problems and limitations of fluorescence measurement s in photophysiology are discussed. Great care is required in interpre ting fluorescence measurements from algae, and in particular in compar ing results from different taxa, The existing pulse amplitude modulate d (PAM) instrumentation seems to be satisfactory as far as macroalgae are concerned, and the way is open for novel work on photosystem physi ology, regulation and ecological adaptation.
