This artificial seawater medium was developed to culture the nitrogen fixing Trichodesmium (no nitrogen source in medium) under critical culture conditions for physiological studies. It was based upon Ohki's medium (Ohki et al. 1992), but it is significantly different. Another more complex medium (YBC-III) was presented in Chen et al. (1996), and it more closely resembles oligotrophic seawater.
