Yes, but you need to acknowledge the original source of each image. Contact with specific inquiries. In the “Phyto Files” module, Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences has the copyright to almost every epifluorescence image, 10x, 20x, 40x, and 100x image, and “In Action” animations. Copyright for the 3-D plankton models is held by California Institute of Technology. Exceptions are indicated by text in the lower right part of the “Phyto Files'” viewing screen. For “SEM” and “Extra” Images, many of the copyrights are held by others: click here (.pdf format) for a list that shows who owns the copyright to specific images and animations. In the “Phyto Factors” module, most of the data maps are from NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration). Exceptions to this include nutrient data maps from NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) and images in the “View Data Sets: Regional Presentations.
