Metabolismo de Nitrogeno y Fosforo Inorganicso Disueltos en la Columna de Agua en una Laguna costera Tropical (Caribe Colombiano)

摘要

Cienaga Grande de Santa Marta (Colombia), is a shallow coastal lagoon with evident signs of eutrophication, and with one of the world's highest primary production rates. To determine the influence of inorganic nutrients in driving and controlling such high production, the relationship of phytoplankton primary production to the amount of dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phophorous (DIN, DI), and their libertion -consumption rates, was studied.
