Abstract:

Investigations were carried out over one growing season (April-November) in 16 series, each lasting 3 consecutive days. Biomass, chlorophyll-a concentration and primary production were measured every day. The following have been found: (1) lack of an unequivocal correlation between these three parameters, (2) variation in the proportion of chlorophyll-a in phytoplankton biomass in relationship to phytoplankton structure, cell age and light, (3) daily variation in phytoplankton populational structure, (4) limitation of photosynthesis by light, depending on phytoplankton structure.
