Abstract: | Relationships between the surface concentrations of phytoplankton pigments (C
ph), total suspended matter (C
sm), particulate organic carbon (C
poc), and total suspended phosphorus (C
sp), on the one hand, and the relative water transparency determined through the Secchi disc depth (z
d), on the other, are analysed using the data compiled in the Guinean coastal waters (Tabunsu and Tonkima river estuaries) during November–December 1990. The functions ofC
ph,C
sm=f(z
d) are matched up with the experimentally derived data, as well as with the model bio-optical state of seawater. The general regression equation has been calculated using the data characteristic of various types of water.Translated by Vladimir A. Puchkin. |
