Evolution of D. salina viability with time of exposure to high temperatures (Marker/Incubation time: a erythrosine/1 h; b FDA/1 h; c erythrosine/6 h; d FDA/6 h; crosses experimental data; line Weibull model; Thin blue line T = 41 °C; Thin red dash line T = 42 °C; Thin black point line T = 43 °C; Thick blue line T = 45 °C; Thick red dash line T = 50 °C; Thick black point line T = 60 °C). Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals. The 100% viability measured in the tubes non-exposed to heat (t = 0) shows that experimental conditions (no agitation, dark conditions) did not impact algal viability over the duration of kinetic studies
